OpenXR SDK 1.1.54 (2025-12-02)

This release updates the C++ standards version used by the package, and includes changes to hello_xr to bring it closer in line with the OpenXR-CTS (which come from a shared codebase) and allow optional submission of depth textures where supported, among other changes.

• Change: Update C++ standard version used from C++14 to C++17. (internal MR 4096)
• Chore: Add extra compiler validation for the OpenXR loader. (internal MR 4086)

• Improvement: Clarify loader doc regarding removed permission requirement for installable broker. (internal MR 4092)
• Validation Layer: Fix the library_path of XrApiLayer_best_practices_validation.json on Windows (internal MR 4080, internal issue 2629)
• hello_xr: Revise rendering to be more similar to the CTS, and add optional support for XR_KHR_composition_layer_depth. (internal MR 4023, internal MR 4118, internal MR 4121)
• Registry
• Change: Deprecate the Wayland part of XR_KHR_opengl_enable and bump version. (internal MR 4052, OpenXR-SDK-Source issue 282, internal issue 1634, internal issue 2559)

• Fix: Correctly define XR_EXT_dpad_binding paths for /interaction_profiles/bytedance/pico_ultra_controller_bd in XML. (internal MR 4049)
• Improvement: Add description for XR_SPACE_COMPONENT_TYPE_TRIANGLE_MESH_META. (internal MR 4070)
• Schematron: Add validation to ensure bitmasks are non-plural before Flags/FlagBits. (internal MR 2678)
• Schematron: Add validation to check additional scenarios of next pointer const-ness. (internal MR 2740)

• Schematron: Add validation for the comment attribute of XrSpatialCapabilityFeatureEXT values. The comment must have references to the feature's config structs. (internal MR 4084)
• Schematron: Add check for orphaned structs, enforcing structextends or parentstruct when appropriate. (internal MR 4091, internal MR 4094)
• Update: Bump XR_EXT_future version due to clarifying what the runtime may do in a completion function of an XrFutureEXT. (internal MR 3796, internal MR 4028)
• Update: Add XrEnvironmentDepthImageTimestampMETA to XR_META_environment_depth, update spec version to 2. (internal MR 4024)

The Android loader can be found on Maven Central, by adding the following line to your Android app's build.gradle dependencies section:
