Latest vk_mem_alloc.h doesn't parse correctly

[NaNraptor]

So switched to linux since last issue I posted and got the library to work with the default vk_mem_alloc.h file. This file however is very outdated so I grabbed the newest one from https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/VulkanMemoryAllocator/tree/master/include. I replaced the one in pyvma/pyvma/_pyvma_build/include with the one I just copied and ran the command from that directory as per the README file.

Everything up to here is fine but once I run python3.10 setup.py build I get met with this error:

I have a pretty good guess as to why that is happening. When we run vk_mem_alloc.h through the c pre-processor on lines 129-131 of the latest of rn version of the file we have this:

#ifndef VULKAN_H_
    #include <vulkan/vulkan.h>
#endif

And for some reason that file cannot be found - as to why, I have no idea

[NaNraptor]

So it was that as I suspected. The way I fixed it was to change the command to cpp -std=c99 -P -I/usr/include -o cdef/vk_mem_alloc.cdef.h vk_mem_alloc.h since /usr/include is where the vulkan/vulkan.h file is installed when you install the LunarG vulkan sdk

[NaNraptor]

Next there were a bunch of files that still specify the include dir as the one with this old vulkan.h file, so i went ahead and made sure that they point to /usr/include instead. Once that was done and I ran py setup.py build I was greeted with the following:

So it seems like the newest VMA build are now using at least C++ standard 14. In the setup.py file the compiler flag is set to C++ 11 so I went ahead and changed it. Voila! It worked, after which I was able to install it

I still need to test it but at elast I have something :)

After immediate testing I get met with this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/nanyo/Documents/ProgrammingEnvs/PythonEnvs/pyVulkan/src/vulkan/constants.py", line 14, in <module>
    import pyvma as vma
  File "/home/nanyo/Documents/ProgrammingEnvs/PythonEnvs/pyVulkan/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyvma/__init__.py", line 3, in <module>
    from pyvma._pyvma import ffi, lib
ImportError: /home/nanyo/Documents/ProgrammingEnvs/PythonEnvs/pyVulkan/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyvma/_pyvma.abi3.so: undefined symbol: vkEnumeratePhysicalDeviceQueueFamilyPerformanceQueryCountersKHR

And here I am lost, I do not understand enough of .so files to be able to debug/reverse engineer why this isn't working, if maybe @realitix would be kind enough to shed some light on this I would be very very grateful

I currently have no idea how to tell cffi to re-arrange the compile command so that the -o .... comes before any -l .... Here is the command I think is responsible:

x86_64-linux-gnu-gcc -shared -Wl,-O1 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -g -fwrapv -O2 -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -g -fwrapv -O2 -g -fstack-protector-strong -Wformat -Werror=format-security -Wdate-time -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.10/build/temp.linux-x86_64-3.10/_pyvma.o -L/home/nanyo/Documents/ProgrammingEnvs/PythonEnvs/pyVulkan/pyvma/pyvma/pyvma_build -lvk_mem_alloc -lstdc++ -o build/lib.linux-x86_64-3.10/pyvma/_pyvma.abi3.so

This gets outputted on screen last, when running py setup.py build

@realitix I really hope you can find some time for this issue as I am losing my mind :(

[realitix]

Hello and thank you for this issue. Sadly I don't have time currently, lot of work... Sorry

In that case it might be worth archiving this repo as it isn't actively being maintained, just to let people like me know not to waste time trying to get it to work. A note in the README might also be helpful

[realitix]

I accept pull request so if someone wants to update it I prefer to let it opened.
