Declaration

public BufferTypeHandle<T> GetBufferTypeHandle(bool isReadOnly);

Parameters

Parameter Description
isReadOnly Specify whether the access to the component through this object is read only or read and write.

Returns

BufferTypeHandle<T> The run-time type information of the buffer component.

Description

Gets the dynamic type object required to access a chunk buffer containing elements of type T.

To access a component stored in a chunk, you must have the type registry information for the component. This function provides that information for buffer components. Use the returned ComponentTypeHandle<T0> object with the functions of an ArchetypeChunk object to get information about the components in that chunk and to access the component values.
