vkAllocateCommandBuffers(3)
===========================
Name
----
vkAllocateCommandBuffers - Allocate command buffers from an existing command pool
C Specification
---------------
include::../protos/vkAllocateCommandBuffers.txt[]
Parameters
----------
pname:device::
A handle to the device that owns the pool from which the command buffers are to be allocated.
pname:pAllocateInfo::
A pointer to a structure containing information about the command buffers to be allocated.
pname:pCommandBuffers::
A pointer to an array of sname:VkCommandBuffer handles that will be filled with the newly allocated command buffers.
Description
-----------
fname::vkAllocateCommandBuffers allocates command buffers from an existing command pool. pname:pAllocateInfo
is a pointer to an instance of the slink:VkCommandBufferAllocateInfo structure which
describes the command buffer allocation. The definition of slink:VkCommandBufferAllocateInfo is:
include::../structs/VkCommandBufferAllocateInfo.txt[]
In pname:pAllocateInfo, pname:sType must be ename:VK_STRUCTURE_TYPE_COMMAND_BUFFER_ALLOCATE_INFO
and, unless an extension is in use, pname:pNext must be code:NULL. pname:commandPool is a handle to the command
pool from which the command buffer should be allocated, and this must be a command pool that is owned
by the device whose handle is passed in pname:device. The pname:level field indicates the level of the
command buffer (primary or secondary) and must be a member of the elink:VkCommandBufferLevel enumeration.
The number of command buffers to allocate is given by pname:commandBufferCount.
On success, pname:commandBufferCount new command buffers are returned in the array pointed to
by pname:pCommandBuffers. Command buffers allocated with fname:vkAllocateCommandBuffers must: be freed
using flink:vkFreeCommandBuffers.
