public struct UnsafeList

Constructors

UnsafeList(Allocator)

Constructs a new list using the specified type of memory allocation.

Declaration
public UnsafeList(Allocator allocator)
Parameters
Type Name Description
Allocator allocator

A member of the Unity.Collections.Allocator enumeration.
Remarks

The list initially has a capacity of one. To avoid reallocating memory for the list, specify sufficient capacity up front.

UnsafeList(Int32, Int32, Int32, Allocator, NativeArrayOptions)

Constructs a new list with the specified initial capacity and type of memory allocation.

Declaration
public UnsafeList(int sizeOf, int alignOf, int initialCapacity, Allocator allocator, NativeArrayOptions options = null)

Creates a new list with the specified initial capacity and type of memory allocation.

Declaration
public static UnsafeList*Create(int sizeOf, int alignOf, int initialCapacity, Allocator allocator, NativeArrayOptions options = null)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Int32 sizeOf

Size of element.
System.Int32 alignOf

Alignment of element.
System.Int32 initialCapacity

The initial capacity of the list. If the list grows larger than its capacity, the internal array is copied to a new, larger array.
Allocator allocator

A member of the Unity.Collections.Allocator enumeration.
