## Name

vkCmdSetDepthCompareOpEXT - Set the depth comparison operator for the command buffer

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To dynamically set the depth compare operations, call:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_extended_dynamic_state
    void vkCmdSetDepthCompareOpEXT(
        VkCommandBuffer                             commandBuffer,
        VkCompareOp                                 depthCompareOp);

## Parameters

- `commandBuffer` is the command buffer into which the command will be recorded.

- `depthCompareOp` specifies the depth comparison operator.

## Description

This command sets the state for a given draw when the graphics pipeline is created with `VK_DYNAMIC_STATE_DEPTH_COMPARE_OP_EXT` set in VkPipelineDynamicStateCreateInfo::`pDynamicStates`.

Valid Usage

- The extendedDynamicState feature must be enabled

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- `commandBuffer` must be a valid VkCommandBuffer handle

- `depthCompareOp` must be a valid VkCompareOp value

- `commandBuffer` must be in the recording state

- The `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must support graphics operations

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `commandBuffer` must be externally synchronized

- Host access to the `VkCommandPool` that `commandBuffer` was allocated from must be externally synchronized
