[osg-users] Announcement: VulkanSceneGraph and SceneGraphTestBed!

[Julien Valentin]

Hi all

MoltenVk is a Vulkan implementation, so not a great constraint, only some cmake code and macros to prevent incompatibilities are to be forseen:
https://www.moltengl.com/docs/readme/moltenvk-0.13.0-readme-user-guide.html#install

Concerning Android Vulkan support begins with API 22 (lolipop), 
on these platefroms std libraries are likely (or not) to support C++11 std::thread (don't know i have an old kitkat..) but some users exp feedback on std feature would lever this doubt

PS: I repost Anvil just in case you missed it
https://github.com/GPUOpen-LibrariesAndSDKs/Anvil/
I'd like other people ptofview about it as it provide the base we require 
(but more..pumex is definitly easier to read:/). 
If anyone have experience with it it would be great to share it...

Cheers
