Crate gpu_descriptor

Library for Vulkan-like APIs to allocated descriptor sets from descriptor pools fast, with least overhead and zero fragmentation.

Straightforward usage:

use gpu_descriptor::DescriptorAllocator;

let mut allocator = DescriptorAllocator::new(max_update_after_bind_descriptors_in_all_pools); // Limit as dictated by API for selected hardware

let result = allocator.allocate(
    device, // Implementation of `gpu_descriptor::DescriptorDevice`. Comes from plugins.
    layout, // Descriptor set layout recognized by device's type.
    flags,  // Flags specified when layout was created.
    layout_descriptor_count, // Descriptors count in the layout.
    count, // count of sets to allocated.
);

Structs

• DescriptorAllocator
  Descriptor allocator. Can be used to allocate descriptor sets for any layout.
• DescriptorPoolCreateFlags
  Flags to augment descriptor pool creation.
• DescriptorSet
  Descriptor set from allocator.
• DescriptorSetLayoutCreateFlags
  Flags to augment descriptor set allocation.
• DescriptorTotalCount
  Number of descriptors of each type.

Enums

• AllocationError
  AllocationError that may occur during descriptor sets allocation.
• CreatePoolError
  Memory exhausted error.
• DeviceAllocationError
  Memory exhausted error.

Traits

• DescriptorDevice
  Abstract device that can create pools of type P and allocate sets S with layout L.
