VK_LAYER_LUNARG_object_tracker

The VK_LAYER_LUNARG_object_tracker layer tracks all Vulkan objects. Object lifetimes are validated along with issues related to unknown objects and object destruction and cleanup.

All Vulkan dispatchable and non-dispatchable objects are tracked by the VK_LAYER_LUNARG_object_tracker layer.

This layer validates that:

  • only known objects are referenced and destroyed
  • lookups are performed only on objects being tracked
  • objects are correctly freed/destroyed.

The VK_LAYER_LUNARG_object_tracker layer will print errors if validation checks are not correctly met and warnings if improper reference of objects is detected.
