Struct ComponentType

A struct to define a component including how it's accessed and what type of component it is

Namespace: Unity.Entities

Assembly: solution.dll

Syntax

[GenerateTestsForBurstCompatibility]
public struct ComponentType

Constructors

Name	Description
ComponentType(Type, AccessMode)	Create a component type

Fields

Name	Description
AccessModeType	The way the component type will be accessed
TypeIndex	A unique index of the component type

Properties

Name	Description
HasEntityReferences	True if any of the fields in the component type are type Entity
HasNativeContainer	The component type contains a NativeContainerAttribute decorated member. NativeContainer members found in nested member types will also cause this property to return true.
IsBuffer	True if the component type is a IBufferElementData
IsChunkComponent	True if the component type is flagged as a chunk component type
IsChunkSerializable	True if the component type is appropriate for chunk serialization. Such types are blittable without containing pointer types or have been decorated with ChunkSerializableAttribute.
IsCleanupBufferComponent	Bitflag set for component types inheriting from ICleanupBufferElementData.
IsCleanupComponent	True if the component type is a ICleanupComponentData
IsCleanupSharedComponent	True if the component type is a ICleanupSharedComponentData
IsComponent	True if the component type is a IComponentData
IsEnableable	True if the component type is a IEnableableComponent
IsManagedComponent	True if the component type is a managed component
IsSharedComponent	True if the component type is a ISharedComponentData
IsSystemStateComponent	Obsolete. Use IsCleanupComponent instead.
IsSystemStateSharedComponent	Obsolete. Use IsCleanupComponent instead.
IsZeroSized	True if the component type does not contain actual fields or data

Methods

Name	Description
ChunkComponent(Type)	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with ReadWrite based on the type.
ChunkComponentExclude(Type)	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with Exclude based on the type.
ChunkComponentExclude<T>()	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with Exclude based on the type.
ChunkComponentReadOnly(Type)	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with ReadOnly based on the type.
ChunkComponentReadOnly<T>()	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with ReadOnly based on the type.
ChunkComponent<T>()	Returns a ComponentType that is a chunk component with ReadWrite based on the type.
Combine(params ComponentType[][])	Combine multiple array of component type into one. Duplicate types are removed. It will allocate an array containing all component type. Useful for creating queries during initialization of systems.
CompareTo(ComponentType)	Returns the sort order this component type compared to another
Equals(object)	Checks to see if an object is equal to this component type.
Equals(ComponentType)	Checks if this component type has the same TypeIndex as the other component type.
Exclude(Type)	Returns a ComponentType with Exclude based on the type.
Exclude(TypeIndex)	Returns a ComponentType with Exclude based on the typeIndex.
Exclude<T>()	Returns a ComponentType with Exclude based on the generic type T.
FromTypeIndex(TypeIndex)	Returns a ComponentType with ReadWrite based on the typeIndex
GetHashCode()	Gets the hash code for this component type
GetManagedType()	Gets the managed Type based on the component's TypeIndex.
ReadOnly(Type)	Returns a ComponentType with ReadOnly based on the type.
ReadOnly(TypeIndex)	Returns a ComponentType with ReadOnly based on the typeIndex.
ReadOnly<T>()	Returns a ComponentType with ReadOnly based on the generic type T.
ReadWrite(Type)	Returns a ComponentType with ReadWrite based on the type.
ReadWrite(TypeIndex)	Returns a ComponentType with ReadWrite based on the typeIndex.
ReadWrite<T>()	Returns a ComponentType with ReadWrite based on the generic type T.
ToFixedString()	Returns a fixed string of the component type
ToString()	Returns a managed string of the component type

Operators

Name	Description
operator ==(ComponentType, ComponentType)	Evaluates if two component types are equal based on TypeIndex and AccessModeType.
operator >(ComponentType, ComponentType)	Evaluates if one component type is greater than the the other.
implicit operator ComponentType(Type)	Creates a new component type based on the type passed in
operator !=(ComponentType, ComponentType)	Evaluates if two component types are not equal based on TypeIndex and AccessModeType.
operator <(ComponentType, ComponentType)	Evaluates if one component type is less than the the other first by TypeIndex, then by ComponentType.AccessMode.
