VkDescriptorSetLayout(3)

VkDescriptorSetLayout - Opaque handle to a descriptor set layout object

A descriptor set layout object is defined by an array of zero or more descriptor bindings. Each individual descriptor binding is specified by a descriptor type, a count (array size) of the number of descriptors in the binding, a set of shader stages that can access the binding, and (if using immutable samplers) an array of sampler descriptors.

Descriptor set layout objects are represented by VkDescriptorSetLayout handles:

VK_DEFINE_NON_DISPATCHABLE_HANDLE, VK_VERSION_1_0, VkDescriptorSetAllocateInfo, VkDescriptorSetBindingReferenceVALVE, VkDescriptorUpdateTemplateCreateInfo, VkIndirectExecutionSetShaderLayoutInfoEXT, VkPipelineLayoutCreateInfo, VkShaderCreateInfoEXT, vkCreateDescriptorSetLayout, vkDestroyDescriptorSetLayout, vkGetDescriptorSetLayoutBindingOffsetEXT, vkGetDescriptorSetLayoutSizeEXT
