C Specification

The VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo structure is defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
typedef struct VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo {
    VkStructureType                               sType;
    const void*                                   pNext;
    VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateFlags          flags;
    VkBool32                                      logicOpEnable;
    VkLogicOp                                     logicOp;
    uint32_t                                      attachmentCount;
    const VkPipelineColorBlendAttachmentState*    pAttachments;
    float                                         blendConstants[4];
} VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo;

Members

  • sType is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

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

  • flags is reserved for future use.

  • logicOpEnable controls whether to apply Logical Operations.

  • logicOp selects which logical operation to apply.

  • attachmentCount is the number of VkPipelineColorBlendAttachmentState elements in pAttachments.

  • pAttachments is a pointer to an array of VkPipelineColorBlendAttachmentState structures defining blend state for each color attachment.

  • blendConstants is a pointer to an array of four values used as the R, G, B, and A components of the blend constant that are used in blending, depending on the blend factor.

Description

Valid Usage

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-pAttachments-00605
    If the independentBlend feature is not enabled, all elements of pAttachments must be identical

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-logicOpEnable-00606
    If the logicOp feature is not enabled, logicOpEnable must be VK_FALSE

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-logicOpEnable-00607
    If logicOpEnable is VK_TRUE, logicOp must be a valid VkLogicOp value

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-pAttachments-07353
    If attachmentCount is not 0 pAttachments must be a valid pointer to an array of attachmentCount valid VkPipelineColorBlendAttachmentState structures

Valid Usage (Implicit)

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-sType-sType
    sType must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PIPELINE_COLOR_BLEND_STATE_CREATE_INFO

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-pNext-pNext
    Each pNext member of any structure (including this one) in the pNext chain must be either NULL or a pointer to a valid instance of VkPipelineColorBlendAdvancedStateCreateInfoEXT or VkPipelineColorWriteCreateInfoEXT

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-sType-unique
    The sType value of each structure in the pNext chain must be unique

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-flags-zerobitmask
    flags must be 0

  • VUID-VkPipelineColorBlendStateCreateInfo-pAttachments-parameter
    If attachmentCount is not 0, and pAttachments is not NULL, pAttachments must be a valid pointer to an array of attachmentCount valid VkPipelineColorBlendAttachmentState structures
