`LiteFX::Rendering::DescriptorBinding`¶

Describes how a resource is bound to one or more descriptors.

Synopsis¶

struct [[dllimport, dllexport]] DescriptorBinding;

Name
`resource_container`

Name	Description
`at`	Returns a copy of the binding, targeting the descriptor range at binding point `bindingPoint.`
`toDescriptor`	Returns a copy of the binding, starting at descriptor `descriptor.` This is only required for descriptor arrays where you don't want to start binding at the first descriptor in the array. Specify the binding point by calling `at`. If it is not set, the index of the array element provided to the binding function will be used instead.

Name	Description
`accelerationStructure`	Creates a descriptor binding for an acceleration structure.
`byteAddressBuffer`	Creates a descriptor binding for a byte address buffer.
`constantBuffer`	Creates a descriptor binding for a constant/uniform buffer.
`inputAttachment`	Creates a descriptor binding for an input attachment.
`sampler`	Creates a descriptor binding for a sampler state.
`structuredBuffer`	Creates a descriptor binding for a structured buffer.
`texelBuffer`	Creates a descriptor binding for a texel buffer.
`texture`	Creates a descriptor binding for an image.
`writableTexture`	Creates a descriptor binding for a writable image.

Name	Description
`binding`	The binding point to bind the resource at. If not provided (i.e., `std::nullopt`), the index within the collection of `DescriptorBindings` is used.
`elements`	The number of array elements or image layers to bind, starting at `firstDescriptor`.
`elementsPerDescriptor`	The number of consecutive buffer elements viewed by each descriptor.
`firstDescriptor`	The index of the descriptor in a descriptor array at which binding the resource arrays starts.
`firstElement`	The index of the first array element or image layer to bind, starting at `firstDescriptor`.
`firstLevel`	If the resource is an image, this describes the first level to be bound.
`levels`	If the resource is an image, this describes the number of levels to be bound.
`resource`	The resource to bind or `std::monostate` if no resource should be bound.
`stride`	The stride of a structure in a structured buffer.
`texelFormat`	The format for a texel in a texel buffer.
