loader: remove references to shlwapi.lib This change improves loader compatibility with Universal Windows drivers[1]: shlwapi.lib is not a part of allowed APIs. It seems PathFileExists call was already redundant as ERROR_MOD_NOT_FOUND was already returned by the loader in cse of wrong dll path. PathIsRelative is replaced by equivalent check.

This project provides the Khronos official Vulkan ICD desktop loader and the Vulkan validation layers for Windows, Linux, and Android.

Vulkan is an Explicit API, enabling direct control over how GPUs actually work. By design, minimal error checking is done inside a Vulkan driver. Applications have full control and responsibility for correct operation. Any errors in how Vulkan is used can result in a crash. This project provides Vulkan validation layers that can be enabled to assist development by enabling developers to verify their applications correct use of the Vulkan API.
Vulkan supports multiple GPUs and multiple global contexts (VkInstance). The ICD loader is necessary to support multiple GPUs and VkInstance-level Vulkan commands. Additionally, the loader manages inserting Vulkan layer libraries such as validation layers between the application and the ICD.
The following components are available in this repository:
Please see the CONTRIBUTING.md file in this repository for more details. Please see the GOVERNANCE.md file in this repository for repository management details.
BUILD.md Includes directions for building all components as well as running validation tests and demo applications.
Information on how to enable the various Validation layers is in layers/README.md.
Architecture and interface information for the loader is in loader/LoaderAndLayerInterface.md.
