Ch02 how to test validation layers?

[Yairama]

Hello, i want to test if validation layers are correctly implemented, in the original tutorial you can test it removing DestroyDebugUtilsMessengerEXT but when i remove this in the java example nothing happens. any idea to test the validation layers?

I ran the code in Ch02ValidationLayers.java and the validation layers seemed to work there. The messages are logged to System.err

Could you give more details about the code you are running?

For those who may be wondering why I output the debug messages to System.err instead of System.out, is simply because in the original tutorial it is logged to std::cerr:
