# bufferTypeInfo

An option instance that provides detailed buffer type information for buffer arguments.

```
static var bufferTypeInfo: MTLPipelineOption { get }
```

## Discussion

This option provides the [`bufferStructType`](/documentation/Metal/MTLArgument/bufferStructType) and [`bufferPointerType`](/documentation/Metal/MTLArgument/bufferPointerType) properties for the [`MTLPipelineOption`](/documentation/Metal/MTLPipelineOption) stored in [`argumentInfo`](/documentation/Metal/MTLPipelineOption/argumentInfo).
