Trait TextureExt 

pub trait TextureExt {
    // Required method
    fn create_view(&self, descriptor: &TextureViewDescriptor<'_>) -> TextureView;
}

Creating texture views whose format the graph can track.

wgpu’s own [wgpu::Texture::create_view] returns a bare [wgpu::TextureView], which reports its texture’s format rather than the one it was created with, so a view that reinterprets its texture — an sRGB view over a non-sRGB swap-chain image — cannot be told apart from a default one afterwards. This trait’s create_view reads the format out of the descriptor and pairs it with the view.

It is deliberately not named differently from wgpu’s own method: wgpu’s inherent method shadows it, so a call has to name the trait — TextureExt::create_view(&texture, &descriptor) — which makes the choice between the two visible at the call site.

Required Methods

fn create_view(&self, descriptor: &TextureViewDescriptor<'_>) -> TextureView

Create a view of this texture, recording the format it views it as.

The format is the descriptor’s own when it states one, and the texture’s otherwise — exactly what wgpu resolves the two to.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety".
