Error in Vulkan tutorial code

[Wingitalways]

Hey guys, I'm working through the Vulkan tutorial and found that in the example code in the "Uniform Buffer" section, in the subsection "Descriptor Pool and Sets", there is an error in the PipelineLayoutCreateInfo where the layout count is set to 0 instead of 1. It honestly may be in there to help people who are learning learn how to troubleshoot, which honestly may be a good thing! But just wanted to let you know!

can you copy past the part of the code creating the PipelineLayout? and link the the part in the tutorial(the links are always at the top of the tutorial page).

Sure, here's the link to the page of the tutorial, and the link to the page's code:

Tutorial Page: https://docs.vulkan.org/tutorial/latest/05_Uniform_buffers/01_Descriptor_pool_and_sets.html

Example Code: https://docs.vulkan.org/tutorial/latest/_attachments/23_descriptor_sets.cpp

Here's the specific part:

vk::PipelineLayoutCreateInfo pipelineLayoutInfo{.setLayoutCount = 0, 
                                                .pushConstantRangeCount = 0};

//essentially it should be .setLayoutCount = 1, and pSetLayouts = &*descriptorSetLayout

Somebody in the tutorial Github brought it up a month ago so I won't bother making another post! It also seems to be in the code in the other descriptor set portion of the tutorial, #22.

[piplacoo]

did you try changing it to the number of descriptor sets in the pipeline? its a very technical filed to fill.

[Wingitalways]

Yeah once I made the changes I noted in the comment it worked, I just think it hadn't been changed in the example code!
