# VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo - Structure specifying images to be used as framebuffer attachments

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_2
    typedef struct VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo {
        VkStructureType       sType;
        const void*           pNext;
        uint32_t              attachmentCount;
        const VkImageView*    pAttachments;
    } VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo;

or the equivalent

    // Provided by VK_KHR_imageless_framebuffer
    typedef VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfoKHR;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `attachmentCount` is the number of attachments.

- `pAttachments` is a pointer to an array of `VkImageView` handles, each of which will be used as the corresponding attachment in the render pass instance.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-pAttachments-03218
  Each element of `pAttachments` must only specify a single mip level

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-pAttachments-03219
  Each element of `pAttachments` must have been created with the identity swizzle

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-pAttachments-04114
  Each element of `pAttachments` must have been created with VkImageViewCreateInfo::`viewType` not equal to `VK_IMAGE_VIEW_TYPE_3D`

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-pAttachments-07010
  If multisampled-render-to-single-sampled is enabled for any subpass, all element of `pAttachments` which have a sample count equal to `VK_SAMPLE_COUNT_1_BIT` must have a format that supports the sample count specified in VkMultisampledRenderToSingleSampledInfoEXT::`rasterizationSamples`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_RENDER_PASS_ATTACHMENT_BEGIN_INFO`

- VUID-VkRenderPassAttachmentBeginInfo-pAttachments-parameter
  If `attachmentCount` is not `0`, `pAttachments` must be a valid pointer to an array of `attachmentCount` valid VkImageView handles
