VKCREATEBUFFERVIEW(3)

NAME
vkCreateBufferView - Create a new buffer view object.

C SPECIFICATION

To create a buffer view, call:

    VkResult vkCreateBufferView(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        const VkBufferViewCreateInfo*               pCreateInfo,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator,
        VkBufferView*                               pView);

PARAMETERS

    • device is the logical device that creates the buffer view.

    • pCreateInfo is a pointer to an instance of the VkBufferViewCreateInfo structure containing parameters to be used to create the buffer.

    • pAllocator controls host memory allocation as described in the Memory Allocation chapter.

    • pView points to a VkBufferView handle in which the resulting buffer view object is returned.

DESCRIPTION

VALID USAGE

    • device must be a valid VkDevice handle

    • pCreateInfo must be a pointer to a valid VkBufferViewCreateInfo structure

    • If pAllocator is not NULL, pAllocator must be a pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

    • pView must be a pointer to a VkBufferView handle

RETURN CODES

On success, this command returns

        • VK_SUCCESS

On failure, this command returns

        • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_HOST_MEMORY

        • VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORY
