A handle to a specific shared component type, used to access an ArchetypeChunk's component data in a job.
Passing a type handle to a job automatically registers the job as a reader or writer of that type, which allows
the DOTS safety system to detect potential race conditions between concurrent jobs which access the same component type.
To create a SharedComponentTypeHandle, use ComponentSystemBase.GetSharedComponentTypeHandle. While type handles
can be created just in time before they're used, it is more efficient to create them once during system creation,
cache them in a private field on the system, and incrementally update them with
SharedComponentTypeHandle<T0>.Update just before use.
If the component type is not known at compile time, use DynamicSharedComponentTypeHandle.
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| ToFixedString | Returns the formatted FixedString "SharedComponentTypeHandle[type_name_here]". |
| Update | When a SharedComponentTypeHandle is cached by a system across multiple system updates, calling this function inside the system's OnUpdate() method performs the minimal incremental updates necessary to make the type handle safe to use. |
