VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV(3)

# VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV(3) Manual Page

## Name

VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV - specify the present barrier membership of this swapchain

## C Specification

The VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_NV_present_barrier
    typedef struct VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV {
        VkStructureType    sType;
        void*              pNext;
        VkBool32           presentBarrierEnable;
    } VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV;

## Members

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

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

- `presentBarrierEnable` is a boolean value indicating a request for using the present barrier.

## Description

If the `pNext` chain of VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR does not include this structure, the default value for `presentBarrierEnable` is VK_FALSE, meaning the swapchain does not request to use the present barrier. Additionally, when recreating a swapchain that was using the present barrier, and the `pNext` chain of VkSwapchainCreateInfoKHR does not include this structure, it means the swapchain will stop using the present barrier.

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-VkSwapchainPresentBarrierCreateInfoNV-sType-sType
  `sType` must be VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_SWAPCHAIN_PRESENT_BARRIER_CREATE_INFO_NV

Structure Chaining

Extends the structure
