ResourceDatabase.GetTable

Parameters

Returns

ResourceTable The resource table for the reference in the locale, or null when it cannot be resolved synchronously.

Description

Returns the resource table for a reference if it is already loaded, or null otherwise.

This is the synchronous companion to ResourceDatabase.GetTableAsync. It returns a cached table, otherwise it resolves the table through any provider in the chain that implements ISynchronousAssetProvider, such as direct references or a Resources load. A table that only a purely asynchronous provider can supply returns null until ResourceDatabase.GetTableAsync loads it. Use it on the main thread when you cannot await.
