C Specification

Each vertex input attribute is specified by the VkVertexInputAttributeDescription structure, defined as:

// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
typedef struct VkVertexInputAttributeDescription {
    uint32_t    location;
    uint32_t    binding;
    VkFormat    format;
    uint32_t    offset;
} VkVertexInputAttributeDescription;

Members

  • location is the shader input location number for this attribute.

  • binding is the binding number which this attribute takes its data from.

  • format is the size and type of the vertex attribute data.

  • offset is a byte offset of this attribute relative to the start of an element in the vertex input binding.

Description

  • VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription-offset-00622

  • VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription-format-00623
    The format features of format must contain VK_FORMAT_FEATURE_VERTEX_BUFFER_BIT

Valid Usage (Implicit)
  • VUID-VkVertexInputAttributeDescription-format-parameter
