Loading… please wait.

## C Specification

To destroy a descriptor update template, call:

    // Provided by VK_VERSION_1_1
    void vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkDescriptorUpdateTemplate                  descriptorUpdateTemplate,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator);

or the equivalent command

    // Provided by VK_KHR_descriptor_update_template
    void vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplateKHR(
        VkDevice                                    device,
        VkDescriptorUpdateTemplate                  descriptorUpdateTemplate,
        const VkAllocationCallbacks*                pAllocator);

## Parameters

- `device` is the logical device that has been used to create the descriptor update template

- `descriptorUpdateTemplate` is the descriptor update template to destroy.

- `pAllocator` controls host memory allocation as described in the Memory Allocation chapter.

## Description

Valid Usage

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-descriptorSetLayout-00356
  If `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `descriptorUpdateTemplate` was created, a compatible set of callbacks must be provided here

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-descriptorSetLayout-00357
  If no `VkAllocationCallbacks` were provided when `descriptorUpdateTemplate` was created, `pAllocator` must be `NULL`

Valid Usage (Implicit)

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-device-parameter
  `device` must be a valid VkDevice handle

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-descriptorUpdateTemplate-parameter
  If `descriptorUpdateTemplate` is not VK_NULL_HANDLE, `descriptorUpdateTemplate` must be a valid VkDescriptorUpdateTemplate handle

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-pAllocator-parameter
  If `pAllocator` is not `NULL`, `pAllocator` must be a valid pointer to a valid VkAllocationCallbacks structure

- VUID-vkDestroyDescriptorUpdateTemplate-descriptorUpdateTemplate-parent
  If `descriptorUpdateTemplate` is a valid handle, it must have been created, allocated, or retrieved from `device`

Host Synchronization

- Host access to `descriptorUpdateTemplate` must be externally synchronized
