VKPIPELINELAYOUT(3)

NAME
VkPipelineLayout - Opaque handle to a pipeline layout object

C SPECIFICATION

Access to descriptor sets from a pipeline is accomplished through a pipeline layout. Zero or more descriptor set layouts and zero or more push constant ranges are combined to form a pipeline layout object which describes the complete set of resources that can be accessed by a pipeline. The pipeline layout represents a sequence of descriptor sets with each having a specific layout. This sequence of layouts is used to determine the interface between shader stages and shader resources. Each pipeline is created using a pipeline layout.

Pipeline layout objects are represented by VkPipelineLayout handles:

    VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE(VkPipelineLayout)
