Struct ArchetypeChunk

A block of unmanaged memory containing the components for entities sharing the same Archetype.

Namespace: Unity.Entities

Syntax

public struct ArchetypeChunk : IEquatable<ArchetypeChunk>

Properties

Archetype

The archetype of the entities stored in this chunk.

Declaration

public EntityArchetype Archetype { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
EntityArchetype

Remarks

All entities in a chunk must have the same Archetype.

If the ArchetypeChunk is sub-batched, returns the number of entities referenced by this batch.

Declaration

public int BatchEntityCount { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Int32

Capacity

The number of entities that can fit in this chunk.

Declaration

public int Capacity { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description

Remarks

The capacity of a chunk depends on the size of the components making up the Archetype of the entities stored in the chunk.

ChunkEntityCount

The number of entities currently stored in the chunk.

Declaration

public int ChunkEntityCount { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
Int32

Int32

Full

Whether this chunk is exactly full.

Declaration

public bool Full { get; }

A special "null" ArchetypeChunk that you can use to test whether ArchetypeChunk instances are valid.

Declaration

public static ArchetypeChunk Null { get; }

Property Value

Type	Description
ArchetypeChunk

Remarks

An ArchetypeChunk struct that refers to a chunk of memory that has been freed will be equal to this "null" ArchetypeChunk instance.

Methods

DidChange(ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic, UInt32)

Reports whether the data in any of IComponentData components in the chunk, of the type identified by chunkComponentType, could have changed since the specified version.

Declaration

public bool DidChange(ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic chunkComponentType, uint version)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic	chunkComponentType	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic(ComponentType) immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.
UInt32	version	The version to compare. In a system, this parameter should be set to the current LastSystemVersion at the time the job is run or scheduled.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if the version number stored in the chunk for this component is more recent than the version passed to the version parameter.

Remarks

When you access a component in a chunk with write privileges, the ECS framework updates the change version of that component type to the current GlobalSystemVersion value. Since every system stores the global system version in its LastSystemVersion field when it updates, you can compare these two versions with this function in order to determine whether the data of components in this chunk could have changed since the last time that system ran.

Note that for efficiency, the change version applies to whole chunks not individual entities. The change version is updated even when another job or system that has declared write access to a component does not actually change the component value.

DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>, UInt32)

Reports whether any of the data in dynamic buffer components in the chunk, of the type identified by chunkBufferType, could have changed since the specified version.

Declaration

public bool DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T> chunkBufferType, uint version)
    where T : struct, IBufferElementData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>	chunkBufferType	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>(Boolean) immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.
UInt32	version	The version to compare. In a system, this parameter should be set to the current LastSystemVersion at the time the job is run or scheduled.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if the version number stored in the chunk for this component is more recent than the version passed to the version parameter.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of the elements in the dynamic buffer.

Remarks

When you access a component in a chunk with write privileges, the ECS framework updates the change version of that component type to the current GlobalSystemVersion value. Since every system stores the global system version in its LastSystemVersion field when it updates, you can compare these two versions with this function in order to determine whether the data of components in this chunk could have changed since the last time that system ran.

Note that for efficiency, the change version applies to whole chunks not individual entities. The change version is updated even when another job or system that has declared write access to a component does not actually change the component value.

DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>, UInt32)

Reports whether the data in any of IComponentData components in the chunk, of the type identified by chunkComponentType, could have changed since the specified version.

Declaration

public bool DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T> chunkComponentType, uint version)
    where T : IComponentData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>	chunkComponentType	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>(Boolean) immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.
UInt32	version	The version to compare. In a system, this parameter should be set to the current LastSystemVersion at the time the job is run or scheduled.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if the version number stored in the chunk for this component is more recent than the version passed to the version parameter.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The component type.

Remarks

When you access a component in a chunk with write privileges, the ECS framework updates the change version of that component type to the current GlobalSystemVersion value. Since every system stores the global system version in its LastSystemVersion field when it updates, you can compare these two versions with this function in order to determine whether the data of components in this chunk could have changed since the last time that system ran.

Note that for efficiency, the change version applies to whole chunks not individual entities. The change version is updated even when another job or system that has declared write access to a component does not actually change the component value.

DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>, UInt32)

Reports whether the value of shared components associated with the chunk, of the type identified by chunkSharedComponentData, could have changed since the specified version.

Declaration

public bool DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T> chunkSharedComponentData, uint version)
    where T : struct, ISharedComponentData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>	chunkSharedComponentData	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>() immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.
UInt32	version	The version to compare. In a system, this parameter should be set to the current LastSystemVersion at the time the job is run or scheduled.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if the version number stored in the chunk for this component is more recent than the version passed to the version

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of the shared component.

Remarks

Shared components behave differently than other types of components in terms of change versioning because changing the value of a shared component can move an entity to a different chunk. If the change results in an entity moving to a different chunk, then only the order version is updated (for both the original and the receiving chunk). If you change the shared component value for all entities in a chunk at once, the change version for that chunk is updated. The order version is unaffected.

Note that for efficiency, the change version applies to whole chunks not individual entities. The change version is updated even when another job or system that has declared write access to a component does not actually change the component value.

DidOrderChange(UInt32)

Reports whether a structural change has occured in this chunk since the specified version.

Declaration

public bool DidOrderChange(uint version)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
UInt32	version	The version number to compare.

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if the order version number has changed since the specified version.

Remarks

Typically, you set the version parameter to the LastSystemVersion of a system to detect whether the order version has changed since the last time that system ran.

Equals(Object)

Two ArchetypeChunk instances are equal if they reference the same block of chunk memory.

Declaration

public override bool Equals(object compare)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Object	compare	An object

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True if compare is an ArchetypeChunk instance that references the same memory, or both contain null memory references; otherwise false.

Overrides

ValueType.Equals(Object)

Equals(ArchetypeChunk)

Two ArchetypeChunk instances are equal if they reference the same block of chunk and entity component store memory.

Declaration

public bool Equals(ArchetypeChunk archetypeChunk)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description

Returns

Type	Description
Boolean	True, if both ArchetypeChunk instances reference the same memory or both contain null memory references.

GetChangeVersion(ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic)

Gets the change version number assigned to the specified type of component in this chunk.

Declaration

public uint GetChangeVersion(ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic chunkComponentType)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic	chunkComponentType	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkComponentTypeDynamic(ComponentType) immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.

Returns

Type	Description
UInt32	The current version number of the specified component, which is the version set the last time a system accessed a component of that type in this chunk with write privileges. Returns 0 if the chunk does not contain a component of the specified type.

Remarks

Every time a system accesses components in a chunk, the system updates the change version of any component types to which it has write access with the current GlobalSystemVersion. (A system updates the version whether or not you actually write any component data -- always specify read-only access when possible.)

You can use the change version to filter out entities that have not changed since the last time a system ran. Implement change filtering using one of the following:

• Entities.ForEach.WithChangeFilter(ComponentType)
• AddChangedVersionFilter(ComponentType)
• DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>, UInt32) in an IJobChunk job.

Note that change versions are stored at the chunk level. Thus when you use change filtering, the query system excludes or includes whole chunks not individual entities.

GetChangeVersion<T>(ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>)

Gets the change version number assigned to the specified type of dynamic buffer component in this chunk.

Declaration

public uint GetChangeVersion<T>(ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T> chunkBufferType)
    where T : struct, IBufferElementData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>	chunkBufferType	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkBufferType<T>(Boolean) immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.

Returns

Type	Description
UInt32	The current version number of the specified dynamic buffer type, which is the version set the last time a system accessed a buffer component of that type in this chunk with write privileges. Returns 0 if the chunk does not contain a buffer component of the specified type.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of component T.

Remarks

Every time a system accesses components in a chunk, the system updates the change version of any component types to which it has write access with the current GlobalSystemVersion. (A system updates the version whether or not you actually write any component data -- always specify read-only access when possible.)

You can use the change version to filter out entities that have not changed since the last time a system ran. Implement change filtering using one of the following:

• Entities.ForEach.WithChangeFilter(ComponentType)
• AddChangedVersionFilter(ComponentType)
• DidChange<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>, UInt32) in an IJobChunk job.

Note that change versions are stored at the chunk level. Thus if you use change filtering, the query system excludes or includes whole chunks not individual entities.

GetChangeVersion<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T>)

Gets the change version number assigned to the specified type of component in this chunk.

Declaration

public uint GetChangeVersion<T>(ArchetypeChunkComponentType<T> chunkComponentType)
    where T : IComponentData

Remarks

Shared components behave differently than other types of components in terms of change versioning because changing the value of a shared component can move an entity to a different chunk. If the change results in an entity moving to a different chunk, then only the order version is updated (for both the original and the receiving chunk). If you change the shared component value for all entities in a chunk at once, the entities remain in their current chunk. The change version for that chunk is updated and the order version is unaffected.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of the component.

Remarks

The native array returned by this method references existing data, not a copy.

Declaration

public T GetSharedComponentData<T>(ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T> chunkSharedComponentData, EntityManager entityManager)
    where T : struct, ISharedComponentData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>	chunkSharedComponentData	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>() immediately before calling this function.
EntityManager	entityManager	An EntityManager instance.

Returns

Type	Description
T	The shared component value.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of the shared component.

Remarks

You cannot call this function inside a job.

GetSharedComponentIndex<T>(ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>)

Gets the index into the array of unique values for the specified shared component.

Declaration

public int GetSharedComponentIndex<T>(ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T> chunkSharedComponentData)
    where T : struct, ISharedComponentData

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
ArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>	chunkSharedComponentData	An object containing type and job safety information. Create this object by calling GetArchetypeChunkSharedComponentType<T>() immediately before scheduling a job. Pass the object to a job using a public field you define as part of the job struct.

Returns

Type	Description
Int32	The index value, or -1 if the chunk does not contain a shared component of the specified type.

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The data type of the shared component.

Remarks

Because shared components can contain managed types, you can only access the value index of a shared component inside a job, not the value itself. The index value indexes the array returned by GetAllUniqueSharedComponentData<T>(List<T>). If desired, you can create a native array that mirrors your unique value list, but which contains only unmanaged, blittable data and pass that into an IJobChunk job. The unique value list and a specific index is only valid until a structural change occurs.
