public class VkBufferViewCreateInfo
extends org.lwjgl.system.Struct
implements org.lwjgl.system.NativeResource
```
Structure specifying parameters of a newly created buffer view.
Valid Usage
- offset must be less than the size of buffer
- If the texelBufferAlignment feature is not enabled, offset must be a multiple of VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::minTexelBufferOffsetAlignment
- If range is not equal to WHOLE_SIZE, range must be greater than 0
- If range is not equal to WHOLE_SIZE, range must be an integer multiple of the texel block size of format
- If range is not equal to WHOLE_SIZE, range divided by the texel block size of format, multiplied by the number of texels per texel block for that format (as defined in the Compatible Formats table), must be less than or equal to VkPhysicalDeviceLimits::maxTexelBufferElements
- If range is not equal to WHOLE_SIZE, the sum of offset and range must be less than or equal to the size of buffer
- buffer must have been created with a usage value containing at least one of BUFFER_USAGE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT or BUFFER_USAGE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT
- If buffer was created with usage containing BUFFER_USAGE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT, format must be supported for uniform texel buffers, as specified by the FORMAT_FEATURE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT flag in VkFormatProperties::bufferFeatures returned by vkGetPhysicalDeviceFormatProperties
- If buffer was created with usage containing BUFFER_USAGE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT, format must be supported for storage texel buffers, as specified by the FORMAT_FEATURE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT flag in VkFormatProperties::bufferFeatures returned by vkGetPhysicalDeviceFormatProperties
- If buffer is non-sparse then it must be bound completely and contiguously to a single VkDeviceMemory object
- If the texelBufferAlignment feature is enabled and if buffer was created with usage containing BUFFER_USAGE_STORAGE_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT, offset must be a multiple of the lesser of VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT::storageTexelBufferOffsetAlignmentBytes or, if VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT::storageTexelBufferOffsetSingleTexelAlignment is TRUE, the size of a texel of the requested format. If the size of a texel is a multiple of three bytes, then the size of a single component of format is used instead
- If the texelBufferAlignment feature is enabled and if buffer was created with usage containing BUFFER_USAGE_UNIFORM_TEXEL_BUFFER_BIT, offset must be a multiple of the lesser of VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT::uniformTexelBufferOffsetAlignmentBytes or, if VkPhysicalDeviceTexelBufferAlignmentPropertiesEXT::uniformTexelBufferOffsetSingleTexelAlignment is TRUE, the size of a texel of the requested format. If the size of a texel is a multiple of three bytes, then the size of a single component of format is used instead
Valid Usage (Implicit)
- sType must be STRUCTURE_TYPE_BUFFER_VIEW_CREATE_INFO
- pNext must be NULL
- flags must be 0
- buffer must be a valid VkBuffer handle
- format must be a valid VkFormat value

- sType – the type of this structure.
- pNext – NULL or a pointer to an extension-specific structure.
- flags – reserved for future use.
- buffer – a VkBuffer on which the view will be created.
- format – a VkFormat describing the format of the data elements in the buffer.
- offset – an offset in bytes from the base address of the buffer. Accesses to the buffer view from shaders use addressing that is relative to this starting offset.
- range – a size in bytes of the buffer view. If range is equal to WHOLE_SIZE, the range from offset to the end of the buffer is used. If WHOLE_SIZE is used and the remaining size of the buffer is not a multiple of the texel block size of format, the nearest smaller multiple is used.
