# VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo - Structure specifying parameters of a newly created pipeline vertex input state

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

The `VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
    typedef struct VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo {
        VkStructureType                             sType;
        const void*                                 pNext;
        VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateFlags       flags;
        uint32_t                                    vertexBindingDescriptionCount;
        const VkVertexInputBindingDescription*      pVertexBindingDescriptions;
        uint32_t                                    vertexAttributeDescriptionCount;
        const VkVertexInputAttributeDescription*    pVertexAttributeDescriptions;
    } VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo;

## 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.

- `vertexBindingDescriptionCount` is the number of vertex binding descriptions provided in `pVertexBindingDescriptions`.

- `pVertexBindingDescriptions` is a pointer to an array of VkVertexInputBindingDescription structures.

- `vertexAttributeDescriptionCount` is the number of vertex attribute descriptions provided in `pVertexAttributeDescriptions`.

- `pVertexAttributeDescriptions` is a pointer to an array of VkVertexInputAttributeDescription structures.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-vertexBindingDescriptionCount-00613
  `vertexBindingDescriptionCount` must be less than or equal to `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits`::`maxVertexInputBindings`

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-vertexAttributeDescriptionCount-00614
  `vertexAttributeDescriptionCount` must be less than or equal to `VkPhysicalDeviceLimits`::`maxVertexInputAttributes`

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-binding-00615
  For every `binding` specified by each element of `pVertexAttributeDescriptions`, a VkVertexInputBindingDescription must exist in `pVertexBindingDescriptions` with the same value of `binding`

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-pVertexBindingDescriptions-00616
  All elements of `pVertexBindingDescriptions` must describe distinct binding numbers

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-pVertexAttributeDescriptions-00617
  All elements of `pVertexAttributeDescriptions` must describe distinct attribute locations

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_PIPELINE_VERTEX_INPUT_STATE_CREATE_INFO`

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL` or a pointer to a valid instance of VkPipelineVertexInputDivisorStateCreateInfoKHR

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-sType-unique
  The `sType` value of each struct in the `pNext` chain must be unique

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-flags-zerobitmask
  `flags` must be `0`

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-pVertexBindingDescriptions-parameter
  If `vertexBindingDescriptionCount` is not `0`, `pVertexBindingDescriptions` must be a valid pointer to an array of `vertexBindingDescriptionCount` valid VkVertexInputBindingDescription structures

- VUID-VkPipelineVertexInputStateCreateInfo-pVertexAttributeDescriptions-parameter
  If `vertexAttributeDescriptionCount` is not `0`, `pVertexAttributeDescriptions` must be a valid pointer to an array of `vertexAttributeDescriptionCount` valid VkVertexInputAttributeDescription structures
