VKIMAGEVIEWTYPE(3)

NAME
VkImageViewType - Image view types

C SPECIFICATION

The types of image views that can be created are:

    typedef enum VkImageViewType {
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_1D = 0,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_2D = 1,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_3D = 2,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_CUBE = 3,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_1D_ARRAY = 4,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_2D_ARRAY = 5,
        VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_CUBE_ARRAY = 6,
    } VkImageViewType;

DESCRIPTION

The exact image view type is partially implicit, based on the image’s type and sample count, as well as the view creation parameters as described in the table below. This table also shows which SPIR-V OpTypeImage Dim and Arrayed parameters correspond to each image view type.
