Pain Points
- 1Lack of a single source for common specifications and header files across multiple Khronos APIs
- 2Need for guidelines to achieve compatibility across different implementations (OpenGL ES, Vulkan, WebGL, etc.)
- 3Accessibility of feedback channels for registries and the Registry-Root project
Key Features
- 1Per-product registries (e.g., EGL Registry, glTF Registry, Vulkan Registry, WebGL Registry, SPIR and SPIR-V Registries, OpenCL Registry, OpenVX Registry, OpenXR Registry, etc.)
- 2Khronos Implementer’s Guide available in HTML and PDF versions
- 3Feedback mechanisms for individual registries and top-level registry via GitHub
- 4Header files published in registries and associated repositories
- 5Note about shared header <KHR/khrplatform.h> required when downloading individual header files
Target Customer Industries
Competitive Advantages
- 1Aims to provide commonality between implementations to ease the logistical problems for developers using multiple implementations
- 2Comprehensive, product-specific registries and documentation
- 3Access to header files and implementerGuides supports interoperable development
Key Benefits
Additional Product Information
Product Description
The Khronos Registry contains specifications, header files, extension specifications, enumerant and function registries, and other related documentation for Khronos APIs, languages, and related products.
Target Market
Developers and organizations building or implementing Khronos API standards across multiple platforms and products.
Unique Value Proposition
A centralized, standardized registry and implementer guidelines for diverse Khronos APIs, enabling cross-platform compatibility and easier integration.
Technical Requirements
If downloading individual header files, several APIs depend on the shared header <KHR/khrplatform.h>, which defines common datatypes and calling convention macros.
