## Name

VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created Win32 surface object

## C Specification

The `VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR` structure is defined as:

    typedef struct VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR {
        VkStructureType                 sType;
        const void*                     pNext;
        VkWin32SurfaceCreateFlagsKHR    flags;
        HINSTANCE                       hinstance;
        HWND                            hwnd;
    } VkWin32SurfaceCreateInfoKHR;

## Members

- `sType` is the type of this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to an extension-specific structure.

- `flags` is reserved for future use.

- `hinstance` is the Win32 `HINSTANCE` for the window to associate the surface with.

- `hwnd` is the Win32 `HWND` for the window to associate the surface with.

## Description

Valid Usage

- `hinstance` must be a valid Win32 `HINSTANCE`.

- `hwnd` must be a valid Win32 `HWND`.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_WIN32_SURFACE_CREATE_INFO_KHR`

- `pNext` must be `NULL`

- `flags` must be `0`
