## Name

vkDestroySampler - Destroy a sampler object

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To destroy a sampler, call:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
    void vkDestroySampler(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkSampler                                   sampler,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device that destroys the sampler.

- `sampler` is the sampler to destroy.

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

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-sampler-01082
  All submitted commands that refer to `sampler` must have completed execution

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-sampler-01083
  If `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `sampler` was created, a compatible set of callbacks must be provided here

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-sampler-01084
  If no `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `sampler` was created, `pAllocator` must be `NULL`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-sampler-parameter
  If `sampler` is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, `sampler` must be a valid VkSampler handle

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

- VUID-vkDestroySampler-sampler-parent
  If `sampler` is a valid handle, it must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from `device`

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `sampler` must be externally synchronized
