Method TryGetRefRO

TryGetRefRO(Entity, out RefRO<T>)

Attempts to get a safe reference to the component data, failing gracefully if the component isn't present.

Declaration

public bool TryGetRefRO(Entity entity, out RefRO<T> outRef)

Parameters

Type	Name	Description
Entity	entity	The target entity
RefRO<T>	outRef	The output reference will be stored here. See remarks.

Returns

Type	Description
bool	Returns true if component T exists on entity, or false if it does not.

Remarks

If T is a zero-size component, outRef will not contain a valid reference; zero-size components do not have an address in memory. However, this function will still return true or false depending on whether entity has component T.
