Detailed Description

This interface acts as a root object for Monado.

It typically either wraps an xrt_prober or forms a connection to an out-of-process XR service.

This is as close to a singleton object as there is in Monado: you should not create more than one xrt_instance implementation per process.

Each "target" will provide its own (private) implementation of this interface, which is exposed by implementing xrt_instance_create().

Additional information can be found in Understanding and Writing Targets: Connecting the Pieces.

Field Documentation

create_system

xrt_result_t(* xrt_instance::create_system) (struct xrt_instance *xinst, struct xrt_system **out_xsys, struct xrt_system_devices **out_xsysd, struct xrt_space_overseer **out_xso, struct xrt_system_compositor **out_xsysc)

Creates all of the system resources like the devices and system compositor.

The system compositor is optional.

Should only be called once.

Note

Code consuming this interface should use xrt_instance_create_system()

Parameters

	xinst	Pointer to self
[out]	out_xsys	Return of system, required.
[out]	out_xsysd	Return of devices, required.
[out]	out_xsysc	Return of system compositor, optional.

destroy

void(* xrt_instance::destroy) (struct xrt_instance *xinst)

Destroy the instance and its owned objects, including the prober (if any).

Code consuming this interface should use xrt_instance_destroy().

Parameters

xinst

Pointer to self

Referenced by xrt_instance_destroy().

get_prober

xrt_result_t(* xrt_instance::get_prober) (struct xrt_instance *xinst, struct xrt_prober **out_xp)

Get the instance xrt_prober, if any.

If the instance is not using an xrt_prober, it may return null.

The instance retains ownership of the prober and is responsible for destroying it.

Can be called multiple times. (The prober is usually created at instance construction time.)

Note

Code consuming this interface should use xrt_instance_get_prober().

Parameters

	xinst	Pointer to self
[out]	out_xp	Pointer to xrt_prober pointer, will be populated or set to NULL.

Returns

XRT_SUCCESS on success, other error code on error.
