GPUComputePassEncoder: end() method

Limited availability

This feature is not Baseline because it does not work in some of the most widely-used browsers.

Secure context: This feature is available only insecure contexts (HTTPS), in some or allsupporting browsers.

Note: This feature is available inWeb Workers.

Theend() method of theGPUComputePassEncoder interface completes recording of the current compute pass command sequence.

Syntax

end()

Parameters

None.

Return value

None (Undefined).

Validation

The following criteria must be met when callingend(), otherwise aGPUValidationError is generated and theGPUComputePassEncoder becomes invalid:

TheGPUComputePassEncoder is open (i.e., not already ended via anend() call).
anypushDebugGroup() calls made on this encoder have a correspondingpopDebugGroup() call beforeend() is called.

Examples

In ourbasic compute demo, several commands are recorded via aGPUCommandEncoder. Most of these commands originate from theGPUComputePassEncoder created viaGPUCommandEncoder.beginComputePass().
