Method GetBufferTypeHandle

GetBufferTypeHandle<T>(Boolean)

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

Declaration

[BurstCompatible(GenericTypeArguments = new Type[]{typeof(BurstCompatibleBufferElement)})]
public BufferTypeHandle<T> GetBufferTypeHandle<T>(bool isReadOnly)
    where T : struct, IBufferElementData

Parameters

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

Returns

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

Type Parameters

Name	Description
T	The compile-time type of the buffer elements.

Remarks

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<T> object with the functions of an ArchetypeChunk object to get information about the components in that chunk and to access the component values.
