## C Specification

The `VkExternalImageFormatProperties` structure is defined as:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
    typedef struct VkExternalImageFormatProperties {
        VkStructureType               sType;
        void*                         pNext;
        VkExternalMemoryProperties    externalMemoryProperties;
    } VkExternalImageFormatProperties;

or the equivalent

    // Provided by VK_KHR_external_memory_capabilities
    typedef VkExternalImageFormatProperties VkExternalImageFormatPropertiesKHR;

## Members

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

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

- `externalMemoryProperties` is a VkExternalMemoryProperties structure specifying various capabilities of the external handle type when used with the specified image creation parameters.
