# VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo - Structure specifying the maximum number of inline uniform block bindings of a newly created descriptor pool

Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

In order to be able to allocate descriptor sets having inline uniform block bindings the descriptor pool must be created with specifying the inline uniform block binding capacity of the descriptor pool, in addition to the total inline uniform data capacity in bytes which is specified through a VkDescriptorPoolSize structure with a `descriptorType` value of `VK_DESCRIPTOR_TYPE_INLINE_UNIFORM_BLOCK`. This can be done by adding a `VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo` structure to the `pNext` chain of VkDescriptorPoolCreateInfo.

The `VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_3
    typedef struct VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        const void*        pNext;
        uint32_t           maxInlineUniformBlockBindings;
    } VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo;

or the equivalent

    // Provided by VK_EXT_inline_uniform_block
    typedef VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfoEXT;

## Members

- `sType` is a VkStructureType value identifying this structure.

- `pNext` is `NULL` or a pointer to a structure extending this structure.

- `maxInlineUniformBlockBindings` is the number of inline uniform block bindings to allocate.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkDescriptorPoolInlineUniformBlockCreateInfo-sType-sType
  `sType` must be `VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_DESCRIPTOR_POOL_INLINE_UNIFORM_BLOCK_CREATE_INFO`
