    Returns:
      Flags specifying how the pipeline will be generated.

  - ### stage

    public VulkanPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo stage()

      The shader stages to be included in the graphics pipeline.

  - ### layout

    public VulkanPipelineLayoutType layout()
    Specified by:
      `layout` in interface `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfoType`
    Returns:
      The description of binding locations used by both the pipeline and descriptor sets used with the pipeline.

  - ### basePipeline

    public Optional<VulkanPipelineType> basePipeline()
    Specified by:
      `basePipeline` in interface `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfoType`
    Returns:
      A pipeline to derive from.

  - ### basePipelineIndex

    public OptionalInt basePipelineIndex()
    Specified by:
      `basePipelineIndex` in interface `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfoType`
    Returns:
      An index into the createInfos parameter to use as a pipeline to derive from.

  - ### withFlags

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withFlags(VulkanPipelineCreateFlag... elements)
    Copy the current immutable object with elements that replace the content of `flags`.
    Parameters:
      `elements` - The elements to set
    Returns:
      A modified copy of `this` object

  - ### withFlags

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withFlags(Iterable<VulkanPipelineCreateFlag> elements)
    Copy the current immutable object with elements that replace the content of `flags`. A shallow reference equality check is used to prevent copying of the same value by returning `this`.
    Parameters:
      `elements` - An iterable of flags elements to set
    Returns:
      A modified copy or `this` if not changed

  - ### withStage

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withStage(VulkanPipelineShaderStageCreateInfo value)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting a value for the `stage` attribute. A shallow reference equality check is used to prevent copying of the same value by returning `this`.
    Parameters:
      `value` - A new value for stage
    Returns:
      A modified copy or the `this` object

  - ### withLayout

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withLayout(VulkanPipelineLayoutType value)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting a value for the `layout` attribute. A shallow reference equality check is used to prevent copying of the same value by returning `this`.
    Parameters:
      `value` - A new value for layout
    Returns:
      A modified copy or the `this` object

  - ### withBasePipeline

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withBasePipeline(VulkanPipelineType value)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting a present value for the optional `basePipeline` attribute.
    Parameters:
      `value` - The value for basePipeline
    Returns:
      A modified copy or `this` if not changed

  - ### withBasePipeline

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withBasePipeline(Optional<? extends VulkanPipelineType> optional)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting an optional value for the `basePipeline` attribute. A shallow reference equality check is used on unboxed optional value to prevent copying of the same value by returning `this`.
    Parameters:
      `optional` - An optional value for basePipeline
    Returns:
      A modified copy or `this` if not changed

  - ### withBasePipelineIndex

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withBasePipelineIndex(int value)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting a present value for the optional `basePipelineIndex` attribute.

  - ### withBasePipelineIndex

    public final VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo withBasePipelineIndex(OptionalInt optional)
    Copy the current immutable object by setting an optional value for the `basePipelineIndex` attribute. An equality check is used on inner value to prevent copying of the same value by returning `this`.

    Computes a hash code from attributes: `flags`, `stage`, `layout`, `basePipeline`, `basePipelineIndex`.
    Overrides:
      `hashCode` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      hashCode value

  - ### toString

    public String toString()
    Prints the immutable value `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo` with attribute values.
    Overrides:
      `toString` in class `Object`
    Returns:
      A string representation of the value

  - ### copyOf

    public static VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo copyOf(VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfoType instance)
    Creates an immutable copy of a `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfoType` value. Uses accessors to get values to initialize the new immutable instance. If an instance is already immutable, it is returned as is.
    Parameters:
      `instance` - The instance to copy
    Returns:
      A copied immutable VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo instance

  - ### builder

    public static VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo.Builder builder()
    Creates a builder for `VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo`.

        VulkanComputePipelineCreateInfo.builder()
