C Specification
Once a pipeline has been created, it can be bound to the command buffer using the command:
// Provided by VK_VERSION_1_0
void vkCmdBindPipeline(
VkCommandBuffer commandBuffer,
VkPipelineBindPoint pipelineBindPoint,
VkPipeline pipeline);
Parameters
-
commandBuffer
is the command buffer that the pipeline will be bound to. -
pipelineBindPoint
is a VkPipelineBindPoint value specifying whether to bind to the compute or graphics bind point. Binding one does not disturb the other. -
pipeline
is the pipeline to be bound.
Description
Once bound, a pipeline binding affects subsequent graphics or compute
commands in the command buffer until a different pipeline is bound to the
bind point.
The pipeline bound to VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_COMPUTE
controls the
behavior of vkCmdDispatch and vkCmdDispatchIndirect.
The pipeline bound to VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_GRAPHICS
controls the
behavior of all drawing commands.
The pipeline bound to VK_PIPELINE_BIND_POINT_RAY_TRACING_KHR
controls
the behavior of vkCmdTraceRaysKHR.
No other commands are affected by the pipeline state.
