Enabling bgfx profiling

[vrimar]

ProfilerBegin / ProfilerEnd in Callbacks.cs are never called. Am I missing some debug flag?

Could you elaborate more? You can handle it in DefaultCallbackHandler.cs

If I set a breakpoint in DefaultCallbackHandler.ProfilerBegin it never triggers when running in debug mode via vscode. If I understand correctly, bgfx invokes ProfilerBegin/End which I'm trying to integrate with Tracy to profile.

No? you have to invoke them yourself https://bkaradzic.github.io/bgfx/bgfx.html#_CPPv4N4bgfx9CallbackI13profilerBeginEPKc8uint32_tPKc8uint16_t

Based on the following:

bgfx::renderer_d3d11.h
bgfx::bgfx_p.h

bgfx invokes the g_callback->profileBegin/End callbacks so you can hook into it to profile with something like Tracy. Now I'm wondering if you need to build bgfx with a specific flag to get it working.

EDIT: Setting the BGFX_CONFIG_PROFILER=1 flag in debug bgfx build enables it. Apologies for the noise.

Thanks for finding the root issue. I might need to add the disclaimer to the README that precompiled binary of bgfx doesn't have the flag set.

Sounds good, thanks for all your hard work!
