VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV(3)

# VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV - Structure describing present barrier capabilities of a surface

## C Specification

The `VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_present_barrier
    typedef struct VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           presentBarrierSupported;
    } VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV;

## Members

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

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

- `presentBarrierSupported` is a boolean describing whether the surface is able to make use of the present barrier feature.

## Description

This structure can be included in the `pNext` chain of VkSurfaceCapabilities2KHR to determine support for present barrier access. If `presentBarrierSupported` is VK_FALSE, it indicates that the present barrier feature is not obtainable for this surface.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkSurfaceCapabilitiesPresentBarrierNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_SURFACE_CAPABILITIES_PRESENT_BARRIER_NV

Structure Chaining
