# vkDestroyDescriptorSetLayout(3) Manual Page

## Name

vkDestroyDescriptorSetLayout - Destroy a descriptor set layout object

## C Specification

To destroy a descriptor set layout, call:

    void vkDestroyDescriptorSetLayout(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkDescriptorSetLayout                       descriptorSetLayout,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device that destroys the descriptor set layout.

- `descriptorSetLayout` is the descriptor set layout to destroy.

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

## Description

Valid Usage

- If `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `descriptorSetLayout` was created, a compatible set of callbacks must be provided here

- If no `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `descriptorSetLayout` was created, `pAllocator` must be `NULL`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `device` must be a valid `VkDevice` handle

- If `descriptorSetLayout` is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, `descriptorSetLayout` must be a valid `VkDescriptorSetLayout` handle

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

- If `descriptorSetLayout` is a valid handle, it must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from `device`

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `descriptorSetLayout` must be externally synchronized
