# VkExternalFenceProperties(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkExternalFenceProperties - Structure describing supported external fence handle features

Loading... please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkExternalFenceProperties` structure is defined as:

    typedef struct VkExternalFenceProperties {
        VkStructureType                   sType;
        void*                             pNext;
        VkExternalFenceHandleTypeFlags    exportFromImportedHandleTypes;
        VkExternalFenceHandleTypeFlags    compatibleHandleTypes;
        VkExternalFenceFeatureFlags       externalFenceFeatures;
    } VkExternalFenceProperties;

or the equivalent

    typedef VkExternalFenceProperties VkExternalFencePropertiesKHR;

## Members

- `exportFromImportedHandleTypes` is a bitmask of VkExternalFenceHandleTypeFlagBits indicating which types of imported handle `handleType` can be exported from.

- `compatibleHandleTypes` is a bitmask of VkExternalFenceHandleTypeFlagBits specifying handle types which can be specified at the same time as `handleType` when creating a fence.

- `externalFenceFeatures` is a bitmask of VkExternalFenceFeatureFlagBits indicating the features of `handleType`.

## Description

If `handleType` is not supported by the implementation, then VkExternalFenceProperties::`externalFenceFeatures` will be set to zero.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_EXTERNAL_FENCE_PROPERTIES`

- `pNext` must be `NULL`
