C Specification

The VkImageUsageFlags2CreateInfoKHR structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_KHR_extended_flags
typedef struct VkImageUsageFlags2CreateInfoKHR {
    VkStructureType          sType;
    void*                    pNext;
    VkImageUsageFlags2KHR    usage;
} VkImageUsageFlags2CreateInfoKHR;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

  • pNext is NULL or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

  • usage is a bitmask of VkImageUsageFlagBits2KHR specifying allowed usages of the image.

Description

If this structure is included in the pNext chain of an image creation structure, usage is used instead of the corresponding usage value passed in that creation structure, allowing additional usage flags to be specified.

If this structure is included in the pNext chain of a query structure including VkImageCreateFlags, the usage flags of the image are returned in flags of this structure, allowing additional usage flags to be queried. The flags representable in VkImageUsageFlags are still returned in the query structure in this case.
