thoughts in general about the process ?
Just few tips.
GC "crashes" since you have custom main, D default main has
runtime initialization code so it "just works", in you custom
main function try to do this before any call to D code.
https://dlang.org/phobos/core_runtime.html#.Runtime.initialize
```d
extern(C) main()
{
import core.runtime;
Runtime.initialize();
scope(exit)
Runtime.terminate();
}
```
Yeah, I just use the rt_init() and disable it, no real issue.
Most of the code is @nogc code anyway.
As for SDL2, are you sure it was built with Vulkan support?
That's the thing I worry about, since the SDL2 libraries are
locally build using android studio and I'm kind of a noob in that.
I use the provided android_project (from the sdl zip) and make
symbolic links in the app/jni folder to:
SDL, SDL2_Image, SDL2_Mixer, Etc
I delete the creation of the libmain.so by removing the src/
folder
Do you have any other Vulkan apps to test if it actually
supported by your device?
It's android 10 so it should be, but I could try creating a c
minimal example in vulkan, although that's gonna be 500 LoC as
well.
