public class Example { static void ScanAssetPostprocessors() { var extractedTypes = TypeCache.GetTypesDerivedFrom<AssetPostprocessor>(); foreach (var editors in extractedTypes) { //... } } }
Or classes which implement a specific interface.
using UnityEditor;
public interface IExampleInterface {}
public class Example { static void ScanInterfaceImplementers() { var extractedTypes = TypeCache.GetTypesDerivedFrom<IExampleInterface>(); foreach (var editors in extractedTypes) { //... } } }
Note: The returned TypeCollection is read-only and thread-safe. The order of types in the collection is undefined.
