# VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT - Properties of External Memory Metal Handles

## C Specification

The `VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT` structure returned is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_EXT_external_memory_metal
    typedef struct VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        uint32_t           memoryTypeBits;
    } VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT;

## Members

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

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

- `memoryTypeBits` is a bitmask containing one bit set for every memory type which the specified Metal handle can be imported as.

## Description

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_MEMORY_METAL_HANDLE_PROPERTIES_EXT

- VUID-VkMemoryMetalHandlePropertiesEXT-pNext-pNext
  `pNext` must be `NULL`
