C Specification

The VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_EXT_vertex_attribute_robustness
typedef struct VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT {
    VkStructureType    sType;
    void*              pNext;
    VkBool32           vertexAttributeRobustness;
} VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT;

Members

This structure describes the following feature:

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • vertexAttributeRobustness indicates that vertex shaders can read vertex attribute locations that have no vertex attribute description and the value returned is (0,0,0,0) or (0,0,0,1).

Description

If the VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT structure is included in the pNext chain of the VkPhysicalDeviceFeatures2 structure passed to vkGetPhysicalDeviceFeatures2, it is filled in to indicate whether each corresponding feature is supported. If the application wishes to use a VkDevice with any features described by VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT, it must add an instance of the structure, with the desired feature members set to VK_TRUE, to the pNext chain of VkDeviceCreateInfo when creating the VkDevice.

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkPhysicalDeviceVertexAttributeRobustnessFeaturesEXT-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PHYSICAL_DEVICE_VERTEX_ATTRIBUTE_ROBUSTNESS_FEATURES_EXT
