Functions

requestDevice

inline suspend fun GPUAdapter.requestDevice(): GPUDevice

inline suspend fun GPUAdapter.requestDevice(descriptor: GPUDeviceDescriptor): GPUDevice

The requestDevice() method of the GPUAdapter interface returns a Promise that fulfills with a GPUDevice object, which is the primary interface for communicating with the GPU.

requestDeviceAsync

fun requestDeviceAsync(descriptor: GPUDeviceDescriptor = definedExternally): Promise<GPUDevice>

The requestDevice() method of the GPUAdapter interface returns a Promise that fulfills with a GPUDevice object, which is the primary interface for communicating with the GPU.
