Description

---

Descriptor memory type. Decides if descriptors are visible and can be bound to GPU.

Note

Translates to D3D12_DESCRIPTOR_HEAP_FLAGS for DirectX 12 implementation.

Values:

• WisDescriptorMemoryTypeCpuOnly = 0: Descriptors are only visible to CPU. May be used for copying descriptors to the GPU visible pool.
• WisDescriptorMemoryTypeShaderVisible = 1: Descriptors are visible to GPU. Descriptors can be bound to the GPU pipeline directly, but can't be copied from.
