Struct bevy::render::render_resource::CommandEncoder

pub struct CommandEncoder { /* private fields */ }

Encodes a series of GPU operations.

A command encoder can record [RenderPass]es, ComputePasses, and transfer operations between driver-managed resources like [Buffer]s and [Texture]s.

When finished recording, call CommandEncoder::finish to obtain a [CommandBuffer] which may be submitted for execution.

Corresponds to WebGPU GPUCommandEncoder.

Implementations

impl CommandEncoder

pub fn finish(self) -> CommandBuffer

Finishes recording and returns a [CommandBuffer] that can be submitted for execution.

pub fn begin_render_pass(
    &'pass mut self,
    desc: &RenderPassDescriptor<'pass, '_>
) -> RenderPass<'pass>

Begins recording of a render pass.

This function returns a [RenderPass] object which records a single render pass.

pub fn begin_compute_pass(
    &mut self,
    desc: &ComputePassDescriptor<'_>
) -> ComputePass<'_>

Begins recording of a compute pass.

This function returns a ComputePass object which records a single compute pass.

pub fn copy_buffer_to_buffer(
    &mut self,
    source: &Buffer,
    source_offset: u64,
    destination: &Buffer,
    destination_offset: u64,
    copy_size: u64
)

Copy data from one buffer to another.

Panics

• Buffer offsets or copy size not a multiple of [COPY_BUFFER_ALIGNMENT].
• Copy would overrun buffer.
• Copy within the same buffer.

pub fn copy_buffer_to_texture(
    &mut self,
    source: ImageCopyBuffer<&Buffer>,
    destination: ImageCopyTexture<&Texture>,
    copy_size: Extent3d
)

Copy data from a buffer to a texture.

Panics

• Copy would overrun buffer.
• Copy would overrun texture.
• source.layout.bytes_per_row isn’t divisible by [COPY_BYTES_PER_ROW_ALIGNMENT].

pub fn copy_texture_to_buffer(
    &mut self,
    source: ImageCopyTexture<&Texture>,
    destination: ImageCopyBuffer<&Buffer>,
    copy_size: Extent3d
)

Copy data from a texture to a buffer.

Panics

• Copy would overrun buffer.
• Copy would overrun texture.
• source.layout.bytes_per_row isn’t divisible by [COPY_BYTES_PER_ROW_ALIGNMENT].

pub fn copy_texture_to_texture(
    &mut self,
    source: ImageCopyTexture<&Texture>,
    destination: ImageCopyTexture<&Texture>,
    copy_size: Extent3d
)

Copy data from one texture to another.

Panics

• Textures are not the same type
• If a depth texture, or a multisampled texture, the entire texture must be copied
• Copy would overrun either texture

pub fn clear_texture(
    &mut self,
    texture: &Texture,
    subresource_range: &ImageSubresourceRange
)

Clears texture to zero.

Note that unlike with clear_buffer, COPY_DST usage is not required.

Implementation notes

• implemented either via buffer copies and render/depth target clear, path depends on texture usages
• behaves like texture zero init, but is performed immediately (clearing is not delayed via marking it as uninitialized)

Panics

• CLEAR_TEXTURE extension not enabled
• Range is out of bounds

pub fn clear_buffer(
    &mut self,
    buffer: &Buffer,
    offset: u64,
    size: Option<NonZeroU64>
)

Clears buffer to zero.

Panics

• Buffer does not have COPY_DST usage.
• Range it out of bounds

pub fn insert_debug_marker(&mut self, label: &str)

Inserts debug marker.

pub fn push_debug_group(&mut self, label: &str)

Start record commands and group it into debug marker group.

pub fn pop_debug_group(&mut self)

Stops command recording and creates debug group.

impl CommandEncoder

Features::TIMESTAMP_QUERY must be enabled on the device in order to call these functions.

pub fn write_timestamp(&mut self, query_set: &QuerySet, query_index: u32)

Issue a timestamp command at this point in the queue. The timestamp will be written to the specified query set, at the specified index.

Must be multiplied by [Queue::get_timestamp_period] to get the value in nanoseconds. Absolute values have no meaning, but timestamps can be subtracted to get the time it takes for a string of operations to complete.

impl CommandEncoder

Features::TIMESTAMP_QUERY or Features::PIPELINE_STATISTICS_QUERY must be enabled on the device in order to call these functions.

pub fn resolve_query_set(
    &mut self,
    query_set: &QuerySet,
    query_range: Range<u32>,
    destination: &Buffer,
    destination_offset: u64
)

Resolve a query set, writing the results into the supplied destination buffer.

Queries may be between 8 and 40 bytes each. See [PipelineStatisticsTypes] for more information.

Trait Implementations
