XrResult xrAcquireSwapchainImage(
XrSwapchain swapchain,
const XrSwapchainImageAcquireInfo* acquireInfo,
uint32_t* index);Parameters
Description
Acquires the image corresponding to the index position in the array
returned by xrEnumerateSwapchainImages.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_CALL_ORDER_INVALID if index
has already been acquired and not yet released with
xrReleaseSwapchainImage.
If the swapchain was created with the
XR_SWAPCHAIN_CREATE_STATIC_IMAGE_BIT set in
XrSwapchainCreateInfo::createFlags, this function must not have
been previously called for this swapchain.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_CALL_ORDER_INVALID if a
swapchain created with the XR_SWAPCHAIN_CREATE_STATIC_IMAGE_BIT
set in XrSwapchainCreateInfo::createFlags and this function has
been successfully called previously for this swapchain.

Name
xrApplyHapticFeedback - Apply haptic feedback
C Specification
The xrApplyHapticFeedback function is defined as:
XrResult xrApplyHapticFeedback(
XrSession session,
const XrHapticActionInfo* hapticActionInfo,
const XrHapticBaseHeader* hapticFeedback);Parameters
Description
Triggers a haptic event through the specified action of type
XR_TYPE_HAPTIC_VIBRATION.
The runtime should deliver this request to the appropriate device, but
exactly which device, if any, this event is sent to is up to the runtime to
decide.
If an appropriate device is unavailable the runtime may ignore this request
for haptic feedback.
If another haptic event from this session is currently happening on the device bound to this action, the runtime must interrupt that other event and replace it with the new one.

xrBeginSession(3)
Name
xrBeginSession - Begins an XrSession
C Specification
The xrBeginSession function is defined as:
XrResult xrBeginSession(
XrSession session,
const XrSessionBeginInfo* beginInfo);Parameters
Description
When the application receives XrEventDataSessionStateChanged event
with the XR_SESSION_STATE_READY state, the application should then
call xrBeginSession to start rendering frames for display to the user.
After this function successfully returns, the session is considered to be running. The application should then start its frame loop consisting of some sequence of xrWaitFrame/xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame calls.
If the session is already running when the application
calls xrBeginSession, the runtime must return error
XR_ERROR_SESSION_RUNNING.
If the session is not running when the application
calls xrBeginSession, but the session is not yet in the
XR_SESSION_STATE_READY state, the runtime must return error
XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_READY.
Note that a runtime may decide not to show the user any given frame from a
session at any time, for example if the user has switched to a different
application’s running session.
The application should check whether xrWaitFrame returns an
XrFrameState with shouldRender set to true before rendering a
given frame to determine whether that frame will be visible to the user.
If primaryViewConfigurationType in beginInfo is not supported by
the XrSystemId used to create the session, the runtime must
return XR_ERROR_VIEW_CONFIGURATION_TYPE_UNSUPPORTED.

that will track a fixed location in the physical world over time.
That real-world location is specified by the position and orientation of the
specified pose within space at time.
If space cannot be located relative to the environment at the moment
of the call to xrCreateSpatialAnchorMSFT, the runtime must return
XR_ERROR_CREATE_SPATIAL_ANCHOR_FAILED_MSFT.
After the anchor is created, the runtime should then adjust its position
and orientation over time relative to other spaces so as to maintain maximum
alignment to its original real-world location, even if that changes the
anchor’s relationship to the original space used to initialize it.

xrCreateSwapchainAndroidSurfaceKHR(3)
Name
xrCreateSwapchainAndroidSurfaceKHR - Creates a swapchain and an Android Surface
C Specification
To create an XrSwapchain object and an Android Surface object call:
XrResult xrCreateSwapchainAndroidSurfaceKHR(
XrSession session,
const XrSwapchainCreateInfo* info,
XrSwapchain* swapchain,
jobject* surface);Parameters
Description
xrCreateSwapchainAndroidSurfaceKHR creates an XrSwapchain object
returned in swapchain and an Android Surface jobject returned in
surface.
The jobject must be valid to be passed back to Java code using JNI and
must be valid to be used with ordinary Android APIs for submitting images
to Surfaces.
The returned XrSwapchain must be valid to be referenced in
XrSwapchainSubImage structures to show content on the screen.
The width and height passed in XrSwapchainCreateInfo may not be
persistent throughout the life cycle of the created swapchain, since on
Android, the size of the images is controlled by the producer and possibly
changes at any time.
The only function that is allowed to be called on the XrSwapchain returned from this function is xrDestroySwapchain. For example, calling any of the functions xrEnumerateSwapchainImages, xrAcquireSwapchainImage, xrWaitSwapchainImage or xrReleaseSwapchainImage is invalid.
When the application receives the XrEventDataSessionStateChanged event
with the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, it must ensure that no
threads are writing to any of the Android surfaces created with this
extension before calling xrEndSession.
The effect of writing frames to the Surface when the session is in states
other than XR_SESSION_STATE_VISIBLE or XR_SESSION_STATE_FOCUSED
is undefined.
xrCreateSwapchainAndroidSurfaceKHR must return the same set of error
codes as xrCreateSwapchain under the same circumstances, plus
XR_ERROR_FUNCTION_UNSUPPORTED in case the function is not supported.

xrDestroyAction(3)
Name
xrDestroyAction - Destroys an XrAction
C Specification
The xrDestroyAction function is defined as:
XrResult xrDestroyAction(
XrAction action);Parameters
Description
Action handles can be destroyed by calling xrDestroyAction. Handles for actions that are part of an action set are automatically destroyed when the action set’s handle is destroyed.
The implementation must not destroy the underlying resources for an action when xrDestroyAction is called. Those resources are still used to make action spaces locatable and when processing action priority in xrSyncActions. Destroying the action handle removes the application’s access to these resources, but has no other change on actions.
Resources for all actions in an instance must be freed when the instance containing those actions sets is destroyed.

Description
Action set handles can be destroyed by calling xrDestroyActionSet. When an action set handle is destroyed, all handles of actions in that action set are also destroyed.
The implementation must not free underlying resources for the action set while there are other valid handles that refer to those resources. The implementation may release resources for an action set when all of the action spaces for actions in that action set have been destroyed. See Action Spaces Lifetime for details.
Resources for all action sets in an instance must be freed when the instance containing those actions sets is destroyed.

xrEndFrame(3)
Name
xrEndFrame - Marks a frame
C Specification
The xrEndFrame function is defined as:
XrResult xrEndFrame(
XrSession session,
const XrFrameEndInfo* frameEndInfo);Parameters
Description
xrEndFrame may return immediately to the application. There is no strong coupling between a specific call to xrWaitFrame, and a specific frame description in xrEndFrame. However, XrFrameEndInfo does include a display time, which should be computed using values returned by xrWaitFrame. The runtime should be robust against variations in the timing of calls to xrWaitFrame, since a pipelined system may call xrWaitFrame on a separate thread from xrBeginFrame and xrEndFrame without any synchronization guarantees.
|
Note
An accurate predicted display time is very important to avoid black pull-in by reprojection and to reduce motion judder in case the runtime does not implement a translational reprojection. Reprojection should never display images before the display refresh period they were predicted for, even if they are completed early, because this will cause motion judder just the same. In other words, the better the predicted display time, the less latency experienced by the user. |
Every call to xrEndFrame must be preceded by a successful call to
xrBeginFrame.
Failure to do so must result in XR_ERROR_CALL_ORDER_INVALID being
returned by xrEndFrame.
XrFrameEndInfo may reference swapchains into which the application
has rendered for this frame.
From each XrSwapchain only one image index is implicitly referenced
per frame, the one corresponding to the last call to
xrReleaseSwapchainImage.
However, a specific swapchain (and by extension a specific swapchain image
index) may be referenced in XrFrameEndInfo multiple times.
This can be used for example to render a side by side image into a single
swapchain image and referencing it twice with differing image rectangles in
different layers.
If no layers are provided then the display must be cleared.
XR_ERROR_LAYER_INVALID must be returned if an unknown, unsupported
layer type, or NULL pointer is passed as one of the
XrFrameEndInfo::layers.
XR_ERROR_LAYER_INVALID must be returned if a layer references a
swapchain that has no released swapchain image.
XR_ERROR_LAYER_LIMIT_EXCEEDED must be returned if
XrFrameEndInfo::layerCount exceeds
XrSystemGraphicsProperties::maxLayerCount or if the runtime is unable
to composite the specified layers due to resource constraints.
XR_ERROR_SWAPCHAIN_RECT_INVALID must be returned if
XrFrameEndInfo::layers contains a composition layer which references
pixels outside of the associated swapchain image or if negatively sized.
XR_ERROR_ENVIRONMENT_BLEND_MODE_UNSUPPORTED must be returned if
XrFrameEndInfo::environmentBlendMode is not supported.
XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING must be returned if the session
is not running.

xrEndSession(3)
Name
xrEndSession - Ends an XrSession
Parameters
Description
When the application receives XrEventDataSessionStateChanged event
with the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, the application should stop
its frame loop and then call xrEndSession to end the
running session.
This function signals to the runtime that the application will no longer
call xrWaitFrame, xrBeginFrame or xrEndFrame from any
thread.
The application must also avoid reading input state or sending haptic
output after calling xrEndSession.
If the session is not running when the application
calls xrEndSession, the runtime must return error
XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING.
If the session is still running when the application
calls xrEndSession, but the session is not yet in the
XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, the runtime must return error
XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_STOPPING.
If the application wishes to exit a session that is running but not in the
XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, the application should call
xrRequestExitSession.
This requests that the runtime transition to the
XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, so that the application can call
xrEndSession, after which the session will transition through
XR_SESSION_STATE_IDLE to the XR_SESSION_STATE_EXITING state and
quit the XR experience seamlessly.

xrEnumerateApiLayerProperties(3)
Name
xrEnumerateApiLayerProperties - Returns up to requested number of global layer properties
C Specification
To determine what set of API layers are available, OpenXR provides the xrEnumerateApiLayerProperties function:
XrResult xrEnumerateApiLayerProperties(
uint32_t propertyCapacityInput,
uint32_t* propertyCountOutput,
XrApiLayerProperties* properties);Parameters
Description
The list of available layers may change at any time due to actions outside
of the OpenXR runtime, so two calls to xrEnumerateApiLayerProperties
with the same parameters may return different results, or retrieve
different propertyCountOutput values or properties contents.
Once an instance has been created, the layers enabled for that instance will continue to be enabled and valid for the lifetime of that instance, even if some of them become unavailable for future instances.

Description
If an action is unbound, xrEnumerateBoundSourcesForAction must assign
0 to the value pointed-to by sourceCountOutput and not modify the
array.
xrEnumerateBoundSourcesForAction must return
XR_ERROR_ACTIONSET_NOT_ATTACHED if passed an action in an action set
never attached to the session with xrAttachSessionActionSets.

XrInstance instance,
XrSystemId systemId,
XrViewConfigurationType viewConfigurationType,
uint32_t environmentBlendModeCapacityInput,
uint32_t* environmentBlendModeCountOutput,
XrEnvironmentBlendMode* environmentBlendModes);Parameters
Description
Enumerates the set of environment blend modes that this runtime supports for a given view configuration of the system. Environment blend modes should be in order from highest to lowest runtime preference.

xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties(3)
Name
xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties - Returns properties of available instance extensions
C Specification
The application can determine the available instance extensions by calling xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties:
XrResult xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties(
const char* layerName,
uint32_t propertyCapacityInput,
uint32_t* propertyCountOutput,
XrExtensionProperties* properties);Parameters
Description
If properties is NULL, then the number of extensions properties
available is returned in propertyCountOutput.
Otherwise, propertyCountInput must point to a variable set by the user
to the number of elements in the properties array.
If propertyCountInput is less than the number of extension properties
available, the contents of properties will be undefined.
If propertyCountInput is smaller than the number of extensions
available, the runtime must return the failure code
XR_ERROR_SIZE_INSUFFICIENT and the contents of properties are
undefined.
Because the list of available layers may change externally between calls to
xrEnumerateInstanceExtensionProperties, two calls may retrieve
different results if a layerName is available in one call but not in
another.
The extensions supported by a layer may also change between two calls, e.g.
if the layer implementation is replaced by a different version between those
calls.

xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats(3)
Name
xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats - Enumerates swapchain formats
C Specification
The xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats function is defined as:
XrResult xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats(
XrSession session,
uint32_t formatCapacityInput,
uint32_t* formatCountOutput,
int64_t* formats);Parameters
Description
xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats enumerates the texture formats supported
by the current session.
The type of formats returned are dependent on the graphics API specified in
xrCreateSession.
For example, if a DirectX graphics API was specified, then the enumerated
formats correspond to the DXGI formats, such as
DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM_SRGB.
Texture formats should be in order from highest to lowest runtime
preference.
With an OpenGL-based graphics API, the texture formats correspond to OpenGL internal formats.
With a Direct3D-based graphics API, xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats never
returns typeless formats (e.g. DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_TYPELESS).
Only concrete formats are returned, and only concrete formats may be
specified by applications for swapchain creation.
Runtimes must always return identical buffer contents from this enumeration for the lifetime of the session.

xrGetInstanceProcAddr(3)
Name
xrGetInstanceProcAddr - Gets a function pointer for an OpenXR function
C Specification
Function pointers for all OpenXR functions can be obtained with the function xrGetInstanceProcAddr.
XrResult xrGetInstanceProcAddr(
XrInstance instance,
const char* name,
PFN_xrVoidFunction* function);Parameters
Description
xrGetInstanceProcAddr itself is obtained in a platform- and loader- specific manner. Typically, the loader library will export this function as a function symbol, so applications can link against the loader library, or load it dynamically and look up the symbol using platform-specific APIs. Loaders must export function symbols for all core OpenXR functions. Because of this, applications that use only the core OpenXR functions have no need to use xrGetInstanceProcAddr.
Because an application can call xrGetInstanceProcAddr before creating
an instance, xrGetInstanceProcAddr returns a valid function pointer
when the instance parameter is XR_NULL_HANDLE and the name
parameter is one of the following strings:
xrGetInstanceProcAddr must return XR_ERROR_HANDLE_INVALID if
name is not one of the above strings and instance is
XR_NULL_HANDLE.
xrGetInstanceProcAddr may return XR_ERROR_HANDLE_INVALID if
name is not one of the above strings and instance is invalid but
not XR_NULL_HANDLE.
xrGetInstanceProcAddr must return XR_ERROR_FUNCTION_UNSUPPORTED
if instance is a valid instance and the string specified in name
is not the name of an OpenXR core or enabled extension function.
If name is the name of an extension function, then the result returned
by xrGetInstanceProcAddr will depend upon how the instance was
created.
If instance was created with the related extension’s name appearing in
the XrInstanceCreateInfo::enabledExtensionNames array, then
xrGetInstanceProcAddr returns a valid function pointer.
If the related extension’s name did not appear in the
XrInstanceCreateInfo::enabledExtensionNames array during the
creation of instance, then xrGetInstanceProcAddr returns
XR_ERROR_FUNCTION_UNSUPPORTED.
Because of this, function pointers returned by xrGetInstanceProcAddr
using one XrInstance may not be valid when used with objects related
to a different XrInstance.
The returned function pointer is of type PFN_xrVoidFunction, and must be cast to the type of the function being queried.
The table below defines the various use cases for xrGetInstanceProcAddr and return value (“fp” is “function pointer”) for each case.

xrGetReferenceSpaceBoundsRect(3)
Name
xrGetReferenceSpaceBoundsRect - Gets the bounds rectangle of a reference space
C Specification
XR systems may have limited real world spatial ranges in which users can freely move around while remaining tracked. Applications may wish to query these boundaries and alter application behavior or content placement to ensure the user can complete the experience while remaining within the boundary. Applications can query this information using xrGetReferenceSpaceBoundsRect.
When called, xrGetReferenceSpaceBoundsRect should return the extents
of a rectangle that is clear of obstacles down to the floor, allowing where
the user can freely move while remaining tracked, if available for that
reference space.
The returned extent represents the dimensions of an axis-aligned bounding
box where the XrExtent2Df::width and
XrExtent2Df::height fields correspond to the X and Z axes of the
provided space, with the extents centered at the origin of the space.
Not all systems or spaces may support boundaries.
If a runtime is unable to provide bounds for a given space,
XR_SPACE_BOUNDS_UNAVAILABLE will be returned and all fields of
bounds will be set to 0.
The returned extents are expressed relative to the natural origin of the provided XrReferenceSpaceType and must not incorporate any origin offsets specified by the application during calls to xrCreateReferenceSpace.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_REFERENCE_SPACE_UNSUPPORTED if the
XrReferenceSpaceType passed in createInfo is not supported by
this session.
When a runtime will begin operating with updated space bounds, the runtime must queue a corresponding XrEventDataReferenceSpaceChangePending event.
XrResult xrGetReferenceSpaceBoundsRect(
XrSession session,
XrReferenceSpaceType referenceSpaceType,
XrExtent2Df* bounds);Parameters

C Specification
The xrGetSystem function is defined as:
XrResult xrGetSystem(
XrInstance instance,
const XrSystemGetInfo* getInfo,
XrSystemId* systemId);Parameters
Description
To get an XrSystemId, an application specifies its desired
form factor to xrGetSystem and gets the
runtime’s XrSystemId associated with that configuration.
If the form factor is supported but temporarily unavailable,
xrGetSystem must return XR_ERROR_FORM_FACTOR_UNAVAILABLE.
A runtime may return XR_SUCCESS on a subsequent call for a form
factor it previously returned XR_ERROR_FORM_FACTOR_UNAVAILABLE.
For example, connecting or warming up hardware might cause an unavailable
form factor to become available.

xrGetVisibilityMaskKHR(3)
Name
xrGetVisibilityMaskKHR - Gets visibility mask
C Specification
The xrGetVisibilityMaskKHR function is defined as:
XrResult xrGetVisibilityMaskKHR(
XrSession session,
XrViewConfigurationType viewConfigurationType,
uint32_t viewIndex,
XrVisibilityMaskTypeKHR visibilityMaskType,
XrVisibilityMaskKHR* visibilityMask);Parameters
Description
xrGetVisibilityMaskKHR retrieves the view mask for a given view.
This function follows the two-call idiom for
filling multiple buffers in a struct.
Specifically, if either vertexCapacityInput or
indexCapacityInput is 0, the runtime must respond as if both fields
were set to 0, returning the vertex count and index count through
vertexCountOutput or indexCountOutput respectively.
If a view mask for the specified view isn’t available, the returned vertex
and index counts must be 0.

xrLocateSpace(3)
Name
xrLocateSpace - Locates a space with reference to another space
C Specification
xrLocateSpace provides the physical location of a space in a base space at a specified time, if currently known by the runtime.
XrResult xrLocateSpace(
XrSpace space,
XrSpace baseSpace,
XrTime time,
XrSpaceLocation* location);Parameters
Description
For a time in the past, the runtime should locate the spaces based on
the runtime’s most accurate current understanding of how the world was at
that historical time.
For a time in the future, the runtime should locate the spaces based
on the runtime’s most up-to-date prediction of how the world will be at that
future time.
The minimum valid range of values for time are described in
https://www.khronos.org/registry/OpenXR/specs/1.0/html/xrspec.html#prediction-time-limits.
For values of time outside this range, xrLocateSpace may return
a location with no position and XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_VALID_BIT
unset.
Some devices improve their understanding of the world as the device is used.
The location returned by xrLocateSpace for a given space,
baseSpace and time may change over time, even for spaces that
track static objects, as one or both spaces adjust their origins.
During tracking loss of space relative to baseSpace, runtimes
should continue to provide inferred or last-known position and
orientation values.
These inferred poses can, for example, be based on neck model updates,
inertial dead reckoning, or a last-known position, so long as it is still
reasonable for the application to use that pose.
While a runtime is providing position data, it must continue to set
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_VALID_BIT but it can clear
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_TRACKED_BIT to indicate that the position
is inferred or last-known in this way.
If the runtime has not yet observed even a last-known pose for how to locate
space in baseSpace (e.g. one space is an action space bound to a
motion controller that has not yet been detected, or the two spaces are in
disconnected fragments of the runtime’s tracked volume), the runtime should
return a location with no position and
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_VALID_BIT unset.
The runtime must return a location with both
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_VALID_BIT and
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_TRACKED_BIT set when locating space
and baseSpace if both spaces were created relative to the same entity
(e.g. two action spaces for the same action), even if the entity is
currently untracked.
The location in this case is the difference in the two spaces'
application-specified transforms relative to that common entity.
The runtime should return a location with
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_VALID_BIT set and
XR_SPACE_LOCATION_POSITION_TRACKED_BIT unset for spaces tracking two
static entities in the world when their relative pose is known to the
runtime.
This enables applications to make use of the runtime’s latest knowledge of
the world, even during tracking loss.
If an XrSpaceVelocity structure is chained to the next pointer
of XrSpaceLocation, the runtime should fill in the linear and angular
velocity of the origin of space within the reference frame of
baseSpace.
If the runtime provides linear velocity or angular velocity, it must set
XR_SPACE_VELOCITY_LINEAR_VALID_BIT or
XR_SPACE_VELOCITY_ANGULAR_VALID_BIT, respectively.
The following example code shows how an application can get both the location and velocity of a space within a base space using the xrLocateSpace function by chaining an XrSpaceVelocity to the next pointer of XrSpaceLocation and calling xrLocateSpace.
XrSpace space; // previously initialized
XrSpace baseSpace; // previously initialized
XrTime time; // previously initialized
XrSpaceVelocity velocity {XR_TYPE_SPACE_VELOCITY};
XrSpaceLocation location {XR_TYPE_SPACE_LOCATION, &velocity};
xrLocateSpace(space, baseSpace, time, &location);See Also

xrLocateViews(3)
Name
xrLocateViews - Gets view and projection info
C Specification
The xrLocateViews function is defined as:
XrResult xrLocateViews(
XrSession session,
const XrViewLocateInfo* viewLocateInfo,
XrViewState* viewState,
uint32_t viewCapacityInput,
uint32_t* viewCountOutput,
XrView* views);Parameters
Description
The xrLocateViews function returns the view and projection info for a particular display time. This time is typically the target display time for a given frame. Repeatedly calling xrLocateViews with the same time may not necessarily return the same result. Instead the prediction gets increasingly accurate as the function is called closer to the given time for which a prediction is made. This allows an application to get the predicted views as late as possible in its pipeline to get the least amount of latency and prediction error.
xrLocateViews returns an array of XrView elements, one for each view of the specified view configuration type, along with an XrViewState containing additional state data shared across all views. The eye each view corresponds to is statically defined in XrViewConfigurationType in case the application wants to apply eye-specific rendering traits. The XrViewState and XrView member data may change on subsequent calls to xrLocateViews, and so applications must not assume it to be constant.

xrPathToString(3)
Name
xrPathToString - Converts a semantic path to a string
C Specification
XrResult xrPathToString(
XrInstance instance,
XrPath path,
uint32_t bufferCapacityInput,
uint32_t* bufferCountOutput,
char* buffer);Parameters
Description
xrPathToString retrieves the path name string associated with an
XrPath, in the context of a given XrInstance, in the form of
a NULL terminated string placed into a caller-allocated buffer.
Since the mapping between a well-formed path name string and an
XrPath is bijective, there will always be exactly one string for
each valid XrPath value.
This can be useful if the calling application receives an XrPath
value that they had not previously retrieved via xrStringToPath.
During the lifetime of the given XrInstance, the path name string
retrieved by this function for a given valid XrPath will not
change.
For invalid paths, including XR_NULL_PATH, XR_ERROR_PATH_INVALID
must be returned.

xrPollEvent(3)
Name
xrPollEvent - Polls for events
C Specification
XrResult xrPollEvent(
XrInstance instance,
XrEventDataBuffer* eventData);Parameters
xrPollEvent polls for the next event and returns an event if one is
available.
xrPollEvent returns immediately regardless of whether an event was
available.
The event (if present) is unilaterally removed from the queue if a valid
XrInstance is provided.
On return the eventData parameter is filled with the event’s data and
the type field is changed to the event’s type.
Runtimes may create valid next chains depending on enabled extensions, but
they must guarantee that any such chains point only to objects which fit
completely within the original XrEventDataBuffer pointed to by
eventData.
Description
The runtime must discard queued events which contain destroyed or otherwise invalid handles.
| Event | Description |
|---|---|
event queue has overflowed and some events were lost |
|
application is about to lose the instance |
|
active input form factor for one or more top level user paths has changed |
|
runtime will begin operating with updated space bounds |
|
application has changed lifecycle state |

xrRequestExitSession(3)
Name
xrRequestExitSession - Request to exit a running session.
C Specification
The xrRequestExitSession function is defined as:
XrResult xrRequestExitSession(
XrSession session);Parameters
Description
An application can only call xrEndSession when the session is in the
XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, which allows runtimes to seamlessly
transition from one application’s session to another.
When an application wishes to exit a running session,
the application can call xrRequestExitSession, requesting that the
runtime transition the session to the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state.
When the application receives an XrEventDataSessionStateChanged event
indicating that the session has reached the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING
state, the application can then call xrEndSession to quit the XR
experience seamlessly, transitioning the session through
XR_SESSION_STATE_IDLE to the XR_SESSION_STATE_EXITING state.
If session is not running when
xrRequestExitSession is called, XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING
must be returned.

const XrDebugUtilsLabelEXT* labelInfo);Parameters
Description
The xrSessionInsertDebugUtilsLabelEXT function inserts an individual
label within session.
The individual labels are useful for different reasons based on the type of
debugging scenario.
When used with something active like a profiler or debugger, it identifies a
single point of time.
When used with logging, the individual label identifies that a particular
location has been passed at the point the log message is triggered.
Because of this usage, individual labels only exist in a log until the next
call to any of the label functions:

xrStringToPath - Converts a string to a semantic path
C Specification
The xrStringToPath function is defined as:
XrResult xrStringToPath(
XrInstance instance,
const char* pathString,
XrPath* path);Parameters
Description
xrStringToPath retrieves the XrPath value for a well-formed
path string.
If such a value had not yet been assigned by the runtime to the provided
path string in this XrInstance, one must be assigned at this point.
All calls to this function with the same XrInstance and path string
must retrieve the same XrPath value.
Upon failure, xrStringToPath must return an appropriate
XrResult, and may set the output parameter to XR_NULL_PATH.
See Path Atom Type for the conditions under which an
error may be returned when this function is given a valid XrInstance
and a well-formed path string.
If the runtime’s resources are exhausted and it cannot create the path, a
return value of XR_ERROR_PATH_COUNT_EXCEEDED must be returned.
If the application specifies a string that is not a well-formed path string,
XR_ERROR_PATH_FORMAT_INVALID must be returned.
A return value of XR_SUCCESS from xrStringToPath may not
necessarily imply that the runtime has a component or other source of data
that will be accessible through that semantic path.
It only means that the path string supplied was well-formed and that the
retrieved XrPath maps to the given path string within and during
the lifetime of the XrInstance given.

The application can provide any number of bindings for each action.
If the application successfully calls xrSuggestInteractionProfileBindings more than once for an interaction profile, the runtime must discard the previous suggested bindings and replace them with the new suggested bindings for that profile.
If the interaction profile path does not follow the structure defined in
Interaction Profiles or suggested
bindings contain paths that do not follow the format defined in
Device input subpaths, the runtime must return
XR_ERROR_PATH_UNSUPPORTED.
If the interaction profile or input source for any of the suggested bindings
does not exist in the whitelist defined in
Interaction Profile Paths, the
runtime must return XR_ERROR_PATH_UNSUPPORTED.
If the action set for any action referenced in the suggestedBindings
parameter has been included in a call to xrAttachSessionActionSets,
the implementation must return XR_ERROR_ACTIONSETS_ALREADY_ATTACHED.

xrWaitFrame(3)
Name
xrWaitFrame - Frame timing function
C Specification
The xrWaitFrame function is defined as:
XrResult xrWaitFrame(
XrSession session,
const XrFrameWaitInfo* frameWaitInfo,
XrFrameState* frameState);Parameters
Description
xrWaitFrame throttles the application frame loop in order to synchronize application frame submissions with the display. xrWaitFrame returns a predicted display time for the next time that the runtime predicts a composited frame will be displayed. The runtime may affect this computation by changing the return values and throttling of xrWaitFrame in response to feedback from frame submission and completion times in xrEndFrame. When less than one frame interval has passed since the previous return from xrWaitFrame, the runtime should block until the beginning of the next frame interval. If more than one frame interval has passed since the last return from xrWaitFrame, the runtime may return immediately or block until the beginning of the next frame interval.
In the case that an application has pipelined frame submissions, the application should compute the appropriate target display time using both the predicted display time and predicted display interval. The application should use the computed target display time when requesting space and view locations for rendering.
The XrFrameState::predictedDisplayTime returned by
xrWaitFrame must be monotonically increasing.
The runtime may dynamically adjust the start time of the frame interval relative to the display hardware’s refresh cycle to minimize graphics processor contention between the application and the compositor.
xrWaitFrame must be callable from any thread, including a different thread than xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame are being called from. Runtimes must not block indefinitely on a second xrWaitFrame call in the absence of xrBeginFrame/xrEndFrame calls but may do so on subsequent xrWaitFrame calls.
Calling xrWaitFrame must be externally synchronized by the application, concurrent calls may result in undefined behavior.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING if the
session is not running.
|
Note
The engine simulation should advance based on the display time. Every stage in the engine pipeline should use the exact same display time for one particular application-generated frame. An accurate and consistent display time across all stages and threads in the engine pipeline is important to avoid object motion judder. If the application has multiple pipeline stages, the application should pass its computed display time through its pipeline, as xrWaitFrame must be called only once per frame. |

xrWaitSwapchainImage(3)
Name
xrWaitSwapchainImage - Wait for a swapchain image to be available
C Specification
The xrWaitSwapchainImage function is defined as:
XrResult xrWaitSwapchainImage(
XrSwapchain swapchain,
const XrSwapchainImageWaitInfo* waitInfo);Parameters
Description
Before an application can begin writing to a swapchain image, it must first wait on the image to avoid writing to it before the compositor has finished reading from it. xrWaitSwapchainImage will implicitly wait on the oldest acquired swapchain image which has not yet been successfully waited on. Once a swapchain image has been successfully waited on, it must be released before waiting on the next acquired swapchain image.
This function may block for longer than the timeout specified in XrSwapchainImageWaitInfo due to scheduling or contention.
If the timeout expires without the image becoming available for writing,
XR_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED must be returned.
If xrWaitSwapchainImage returns XR_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED, the next
call to xrWaitSwapchainImage will wait on the same image index again
until the function succeeds with XR_SUCCESS.
Note that this is not an error code;
XR_SUCCEEDED( is XR_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED)true.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_CALL_ORDER_INVALID if no image has
been acquired by calling xrAcquireSwapchainImage.

XrActionSet(3)
Name
XrActionSet - Opaque handle to an action set
C Specification
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrActionSet)Description
Action sets are application-defined collections of actions. They are attached to a given XrSession with a xrAttachSessionActionSets call. They are enabled or disabled by the application via xrSyncActions depending on the current application context. For example, a game may have one set of actions that apply to controlling a character and another set for navigating a menu system. When these actions are grouped into two XrActionSet handles they can be selectively enabled and disabled using a single function call.
Actions are passed a handle to their XrActionSet when they are created.
Action sets are created by calling xrCreateActionSet:

XrInstance(3)
Name
XrInstance - Opaque handle to an instance object
C Specification
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrInstance)Description
An OpenXR instance is an object that allows an OpenXR application to communicate with an OpenXR runtime. The application accomplishes this communication by calling xrCreateInstance and receiving a handle to the resulting XrInstance object.
The XrInstance object stores and tracks OpenXR-related application state, without storing any such state in the application’s global address space. This allows the application to create multiple instances as well as safely encapsulate the application’s OpenXR state since this object is opaque to the application. OpenXR runtimes may limit the number of simultaneous XrInstance objects that may be created and used, but they must support the creation and usage of at least one XrInstance object per process.
Physically, this state may be stored in any of the OpenXR loader, OpenXR API layers or the OpenXR runtime components. The exact storage and distribution of this saved state is implementation-dependent, except where indicated by this specification.

XrSession(3)
Name
XrSession - Opaque handle to a session object
C Specification
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrSession)Description
A session represents an application’s intention to display XR content to the user.
First, the application creates a session by choosing a system
and a graphics API and calling xrCreateSession, which creates a
session in the XR_SESSION_STATE_IDLE state.
The application then sets up an xrPollEvent loop to monitor for
session state changes delivered through the
XrEventDataSessionStateChanged event.
When the runtime determines that the system is ready to start transitioning
to this session’s XR content, it notifies the application that its session
has moved into the XR_SESSION_STATE_READY state.
When the application is ready to proceed and display its XR content, it
calls xrBeginSession, which starts its session running.
While the session is running, the application is expected to continuously
run its frame loop by calling xrWaitFrame, xrBeginFrame and
xrEndFrame each frame, to establish synchronization with the runtime.
Once the runtime is synchronized with the application’s frame loop and ready
to display its frames, the session will move into the
XR_SESSION_STATE_SYNCHRONIZED state.
For frames where xrWaitFrame returns an XrFrameState with
shouldRender set to true, the application should render its
composition layers and submit them to xrEndFrame.
If the application desires to leave a running session, it should call the
xrRequestExitSession function to request that the runtime transition
its session to the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state as soon as
possible.
Once the application reaches the XR_SESSION_STATE_STOPPING state, it
can call xrEndSession to stop the XR session, after which the session
will transition through XR_SESSION_STATE_IDLE to the
XR_SESSION_STATE_EXITING state.
A session is considered running after a successful
call to xrBeginSession and remains running until any call is made to
xrEndSession.
Certain functions are only valid to call when a session is running, such as
xrWaitFrame, or else the XR_ERROR_SESSION_NOT_RUNNING error
must be returned by the runtime.
A session is considered not running before a
successful call to xrBeginSession and becomes not running again after
any call is made to xrEndSession.
Certain functions are only valid to call when a session is not running, such
as xrBeginSession, or else the XR_ERROR_SESSION_RUNNING error
must be returned by the runtime.
If an error is returned from xrBeginSession, the session remains in its current running or not running state. Calling xrEndSession always transitions a session to the not running state, regardless of any errors returned.
Only running sessions may become focused sessions that receive XR input. When a session is not running, the application must not submit frames. This is important because without a running session, the runtime no longer has to spend resources on sub-systems (tracking etc.) that are no longer needed by the application.

XrSpace(3)
Name
XrSpace - Opaque handle to a space
C Specification
Across both virtual reality and augmented reality, XR applications have a core need to map the location of virtual objects to the corresponding real-world locations where they will be rendered. Spaces allow applications to explicitly create and specify the frames of reference in which they choose to track the real world, and then determine how those frames of reference move relative to one another over time.
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrSpace)Description
Spaces are represented by XrSpace handles, which the application creates and then uses in API calls. Whenever an application calls a function that returns coordinates, it provides an XrSpace to specify the frame of reference in which those coordinates will be expressed. Similarly, when providing coordinates to a function, the application specifies which XrSpace the runtime should use to interpret those coordinates.
OpenXR defines a set of well-known reference spaces that applications
use to bootstrap their spatial reasoning.
These reference spaces are: VIEW, LOCAL and STAGE.
Each reference space has a well-defined meaning, which establishes where its
origin is positioned and how its axes are oriented.
Runtimes whose tracking systems improve their understanding of the world
over time may track spaces independently.
For example, even though a LOCAL space and a STAGE space each map their
origin to a static position in the world, a runtime with an inside-out
tracking system may introduce slight adjustments to the origin of each
space on a continuous basis to keep each origin in place.
Beyond well-known reference spaces, runtimes expose other independently-tracked spaces, such as a pose action space that tracks the pose of a motion controller over time.
When one or both spaces are tracking a dynamic object, passing in an updated
time to xrLocateSpace each frame will result in an updated relative
pose.
For example, the location of the left hand’s pose action space in the
STAGE reference space will change each frame as the user’s hand moves
relative to the stage’s predefined origin on the floor.
In other XR APIs, it is common to report the "pose" of an object relative to
some presumed underlying global space.
This API is careful to not explicitly define such an underlying global
space, because it does not apply to all systems.
Some systems will support no STAGE space, while others may support a
STAGE space that switches between various physical stages with dynamic
availability.
To satisfy this wide variability, "poses" are always described as the
relationship between two spaces.
Some devices improve their understanding of the world as the device is used. The location returned by xrLocateSpace in later frames may change over time, even for spaces that track static objects, as either the target space or base space adjusts its origin.
Composition layers submitted by the application include an XrSpace for
the runtime to use to position that layer over time.
Composition layers whose XrSpace is relative to the VIEW reference
space are implicitly "head-locked", even if they may not be "display-locked"
for non-head-mounted form factors.

XrSpatialAnchorMSFT(3)
Name
XrSpatialAnchorMSFT - Represents a spatial anchor
C Specification
This extension allows an application to create a spatial anchor, an arbitrary freespace point in the user’s physical environment that will then be tracked by the runtime. The runtime should then adjust the position and orientation of that anchor’s origin over time as needed, independently of all other spaces and anchors, to ensure that it maintains its original mapping to the real world.
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrSpatialAnchorMSFT)Description
Spatial anchors are often used in combination with an UNBOUNDED_MSFT
reference space.
UNBOUNDED_MSFT reference spaces adjust their origin as necessary to keep
the viewer’s coordinates relative to the space’s origin stable.
Such adjustments maintain the visual stability of content currently near the
viewer, but may cause content placed far from the viewer to drift in its
alignment to the real world by the time the user moves close again.
By creating an XrSpatialAnchorMSFT where a piece of content is placed and
then always rendering that content relative to its anchor’s space, an
application can ensure that each piece of content stays at a fixed location
in the environment.

XrSwapchain(3)
Name
XrSwapchain - Opaque handle to a swapchain object
C Specification
XR_DEFINE_HANDLE(XrSwapchain)Description
Normal XR applications will want to present rendered images to the user. To allow this, the runtime provides images organized in swapchains for the application to render into. The runtime must allow applications to create multiple swapchains.
Swapchain image format support by the runtime is specified by the
xrEnumerateSwapchainFormats function.
Runtimes should support R8G8B8A8 and R8G8B8A8 sRGB formats
if possible.
Swapchain images can be 2D or 2D Array.
Rendering operations involving composition of submitted layers should be
assumed to be internally performed by the runtime in linear color space.
Images submitted in sRGB color space must be created using an API-specific
sRGB format (e.g. DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM_SRGB, GL_SRGBA,
VK_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_SRGB) to apply automatic sRGB-to-linear conversion
when read by the runtime.
All other formats will be treated as linear values.
|
Note
DXGI resources will be created with their associated TYPELESS format, but the runtime will use the application-specified format for reading the data. |

Structures
XrActionCreateInfo(3)
Name
XrActionCreateInfo - XrAction creation info
C Specification
The XrActionCreateInfo structure is defined as:
typedef struct XrActionCreateInfo {
XrStructureType type;
const void* next;
char actionName[XR_MAX_ACTION_NAME_SIZE];
XrActionType actionType;
uint32_t countSubactionPaths;
const XrPath* subactionPaths;
char localizedActionName[XR_MAX_LOCALIZED_ACTION_NAME_SIZE];
} XrActionCreateInfo;Members
Description
Subaction paths are a mechanism that enables applications to use the same
action name and handle on multiple devices.
Applications can query action state using subaction paths that differentiate
data coming from each device.
This allows the runtime to group logically equivalent actions together in
system UI.
For instance, an application could create a single pick_up action
with the /user/hand/left and /user/hand/right subaction
paths and use the subaction paths to independently query the state of
pick_up_with_left_hand and pick_up_with_right_hand.
Applications can create actions with or without the subactionPaths
set to a list of paths.
If this list of paths is omitted (i.e. subactionPaths is set to
NULL, and countSubactionPaths is set to 0), the application is
opting out of filtering action results by subaction paths and any call to
get action data must also omit subaction paths.
If subactionPaths is specified and any of the following conditions are
not satisfied, the runtime must return XR_ERROR_PATH_UNSUPPORTED:
-
Each path provided is one of:
-
/user/head
-
/user/hand/left
-
/user/hand/right
-
/user/gamepad
-
/user
-
-
No path appears in the list more than once
Including /user in the list of subaction paths creates an 'other'
bucket for action data to be filtered into.
When /user is included in the list passed to
xrGetActionState* the runtime must include data for all devices which
are not included in the other subaction paths into the /user
bucket.
Extensions may append additional top level user paths to the above list.
The runtime must return XR_ERROR_PATH_UNSUPPORTED in the following
circumstances:
-
The application specified subaction paths at action creation and the application called
xrGetActionState*or a haptic function with an empty subaction path array. -
The application called
xrGetActionState*or a haptic function with a subaction path that was not specified when the action was created.
If actionName or localizedActionName are empty strings, the
runtime must return XR_ERROR_NAME_INVALID or
XR_ERROR_LOCALIZED_NAME_INVALID respectively.
If actionName or localizedActionName are duplicates of the
corresponding field for any existing action in the specified action set, the
runtime must return XR_ERROR_NAME_DUPLICATED or
XR_ERROR_LOCALIZED_NAME_DUPLICATED respectively.
If the conflicting action is destroyed, the conflicting field is no longer
considered duplicated.
If actionName contains characters which are not allowed in a single
level of a well-formed path string, the
runtime must return XR_ERROR_PATH_FORMAT_INVALID.

XrActionSetCreateInfo(3)
Name
XrActionSetCreateInfo - XrActionSet creation info
C Specification
The XrActionSetCreateInfo structure is defined as:
typedef struct XrActionSetCreateInfo {
XrStructureType type;
const void* next;
char actionSetName[XR_MAX_ACTION_SET_NAME_SIZE];
char localizedActionSetName[XR_MAX_LOCALIZED_ACTION_SET_NAME_SIZE];
uint32_t priority;
} XrActionSetCreateInfo;Members
Description
When multiple actions are bound to the same input source, the priority
of each action set determines which bindings are suppressed.
Runtimes must ignore input sources from action sets with a lower priority
number if those specific input sources are also present in active actions
within a higher priority action set.
If multiple action sets with the same priority are bound to the same input
source and that is the highest priority number, runtimes must process all
those bindings at the same time.
Two actions are considered to be bound to the same input source if they use the same identifier and optional location path segments, even if they have different component segments.
When runtimes are ignoring bindings because of priority, they must treat
the binding to that input source as though they do not exist.
That means the isActive field must be XR_FALSE when retrieving
action data, and that the runtime must not provide any visual, haptic, or
other feedback related to the binding of that action to that input source.
Other actions in the same action set which are bound to input sources that
do not collide are not affected and are processed as normal.
If actionSetName or localizedActionSetName are empty strings,
the runtime must return XR_ERROR_NAME_INVALID or
XR_ERROR_LOCALIZED_NAME_INVALID respectively.
If actionSetName or localizedActionSetName are duplicates of the
corresponding field for any existing action set in the specified session,
the runtime must return XR_ERROR_NAME_DUPLICATED or
XR_ERROR_LOCALIZED_NAME_DUPLICATED respectively.
If the conflicting action set is destroyed, the conflicting field is no
longer considered duplicated.
If actionSetName contains characters which are not allowed in a single
level of a well-formed path string, the
runtime must return XR_ERROR_PATH_FORMAT_INVALID.

which has a different view or FOV than that from xrLocateViews.
In this case, the runtime will map the view and FOV to the system display
appropriately.
In the case that two submitted views within a single layer overlap, they
must be composited in view array order.

Description
The XrCompositionLayerQuad layer is useful for user interface elements or 2D content rendered into the virtual world. The layer’s XrSwapchainSubImage::swapchain image is applied to a quad in the virtual world space. Only front face of the quad surface is visible; the back face is not visible and must not be drawn by the runtime. A quad layer has no thickness; it is a two-dimensional object positioned and oriented in 3D space. The position of a quad refers to the center of the quad within the given XrSpace. The orientation of the quad refers to the orientation of the normal vector from the front face. The size of a quad refers to the quad’s size in the x-y plane of the given XrSpace’s coordinate system. A quad with a position of {0,0,0}, rotation of {0,0,0,1} (no rotation), and a size of {1,1} refers to a 1 meter x 1 meter quad centered at {0,0,0} with its front face normal vector coinciding with the +z axis.

Description
For each XrDebugUtilsMessengerEXT that is created the
XrDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT::messageSeverities and
XrDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT::messageTypes determine when
that XrDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT::userCallback is called.
The process to determine if the user’s userCallback is triggered when an
event occurs is as follows:
-
The runtime will perform a bitwise AND of the event’s XrDebugUtilsMessageSeverityFlagBitsEXT with the XrDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT::
messageSeveritiesprovided during creation of the XrDebugUtilsMessengerEXT object. -
If this results in
0, the message is skipped. -
The runtime will perform bitwise AND of the event’s XrDebugUtilsMessageTypeFlagBitsEXT with the XrDebugUtilsMessengerCreateInfoEXT::
messageTypesprovided during the creation of the XrDebugUtilsMessengerEXT object. -
If this results in
0, the message is skipped. -
If the message of the current event is not skipped, the callback will be called with the message.
The callback will come directly from the component that detected the event, unless some other layer intercepts the calls for its own purposes (filter them in a different way, log to a system error log, etc.).

XrEventDataInstanceLossPending - Event indicating instance loss will occur
C Specification
typedef struct XrEventDataInstanceLossPending {
XrStructureType type;
const void* next;
XrTime lossTime;
} XrEventDataInstanceLossPending;Members
Receiving the XrEventDataInstanceLossPending event structure indicates
that the application is about to lose the indicated XrInstance at the
indicated lossTime in the future.
The application should call xrDestroyInstance and relinquish any
instance-specific resources.
This typically occurs to make way for a replacement of the underlying
runtime, such as via a software update.
Description
After the application has destroyed all of its instances and their children
and waited past the specified time, it may then re-try
xrCreateInstance in a loop waiting for whatever maintenance the
runtime is performing to complete.
The runtime will return XR_ERROR_INSTANCE_LOST from
xrCreateInstance as long as it is unable to create the instance.
Once the runtime has returned and is able to continue, it must resume
returning XR_SUCCESS from xrCreateInstance if valid data is
passed in.

XrEventDataReferenceSpaceChangePending(3)
Name
XrEventDataReferenceSpaceChangePending - Notifies the application that a reference space is changing
C Specification
The XrEventDataReferenceSpaceChangePending event is sent to the application to notify it that the origin (and perhaps the bounds) of a reference space is changing. This may occur due to the user recentering the space explicitly, or the runtime otherwise switching to a different space definition.
The reference space change must only take effect for xrLocateSpace or
xrLocateViews calls whose XrTime parameter is greater than or
equal to the changeTime provided in that event.
Runtimes should provide a changeTime to applications that allows for
a deep render pipeline to present frames that are already in flight using
the previous definition of the space.
Runtimes should choose a changeTime that is midway between the
displayTime of future frames to avoid threshold issues with
applications that calculate future frame times using displayPeriod.
The pose provided here must only describe the change in the natural
origin of the reference space and must not incorporate any origin offsets
specified by the application during calls to xrCreateReferenceSpace.
If the runtime does not know the location of the space’s new origin relative
to its previous origin, poseValid must be false, and the position and
orientation of poseInPreviousSpace are undefined.
typedef struct XrEventDataReferenceSpaceChangePending {
XrStructureType type;

XrFovf(3)
Name
XrFovf - Field of view
C Specification
Field of view (FoV) is defined by the structure:
typedef struct XrFovf {
float angleLeft;
float angleRight;
float angleUp;
float angleDown;
} XrFovf;Members
Description
Angles to the right of the center and upwards from the center are positive,
and angles to the left of the center and down from the center are negative.
The total horizontal field of view is angleRight minus
angleLeft, and the total vertical field of view is angleUp minus
angleDown.
For a symmetric FoV, angleRight and angleUp will have positive
values, angleLeft will be -angleRight, and angleDown will
be -angleUp.
The angles must be specified in radians, and must be between -π/2 and π/2 exclusively.
When angleLeft > angleRight, the content of the view must be
flipped horizontally.
When angleDown > angleUp, the content of the view must be
flipped vertically.

XrFrameState(3)
Name
XrFrameState - Frame prediction structure
C Specification
The XrFrameState structure is defined as:
typedef struct XrFrameState {
XrStructureType type;
void* next;
XrTime predictedDisplayTime;
XrDuration predictedDisplayPeriod;
XrBool32 shouldRender;
} XrFrameState;Members
Description
XrFrameState describes the time at which the next frame will be
displayed to the user.
predictedDisplayTime must refer to the midpoint of the interval
during which the frame is displayed.
The runtime may report a different predictedDisplayPeriod from the
hardware’s refresh cycle.
For any frame where shouldRender is XR_FALSE, the application
should avoid heavy GPU work for that frame, for example by not rendering
its layers.
This typically happens when the application is transitioning into or out of
a running session, or when some system UI is fully covering the application
at the moment.
As long as the session is running, the application
should keep running the frame loop to maintain the frame synchronization to
the runtime, even if this requires calling xrEndFrame with all layers
omitted.

XrReferenceSpaceType(3)
Name
XrReferenceSpaceType - Reference space types
C Specification
An XrSpace handle for a reference space is created using xrCreateReferenceSpace, by specifying the chosen reference space type and a pose within the natural reference frame defined for that reference space type.
Runtimes implement well-known reference spaces from XrReferenceSpaceType if they support tracking of that kind:
typedef enum XrReferenceSpaceType {
XR_REFERENCE_SPACE_TYPE_VIEW = 1,
XR_REFERENCE_SPACE_TYPE_LOCAL = 2,
XR_REFERENCE_SPACE_TYPE_STAGE = 3,
XR_REFERENCE_SPACE_TYPE_UNBOUNDED_MSFT = 1000038000,
XR_REFERENCE_SPACE_TYPE_MAX_ENUM = 0x7FFFFFFF
} XrReferenceSpaceType;Description
Available reference space types are indicated by xrEnumerateReferenceSpaces. Note that other spaces can be created as well, such as pose action spaces created by xrCreateActionSpace, which are not enumerated by that API.
