Struct InputEventBuffer

A buffer of raw memory holding a sequence of InputEvent.

Namespace: UnityEngine.Experimental.Input.LowLevel
Syntax
public struct InputEventBuffer : IEnumerable<InputEventPtr>, IDisposable
Remarks

Note that event buffers are not thread-safe. It is not safe to write events to the buffer concurrently from multiple threads. It is, however, safe to traverse the contents of an existing buffer from multiple threads as long as it is not mutated at the same time.

Constructors

InputEventBuffer(NativeArray<Byte>, Int32, Int32)

Declaration
public InputEventBuffer(NativeArray<byte> buffer, int eventCount, int sizeInBytes = -1)
Parameters
Type Name Description
NativeArray<System.Byte> buffer
System.Int32 eventCount
System.Int32 sizeInBytes

InputEventBuffer(InputEvent*, Int32, Int32, Int32)

Declaration
public InputEventBuffer(InputEvent*eventPtr, int eventCount, int sizeInBytes = -1, int capacityInBytes = -1)
Parameters
Type Name Description
InputEvent* eventPtr
System.Int32 eventCount
System.Int32 sizeInBytes
System.Int32 capacityInBytes

Fields

kBufferSizeUnknown

Declaration
public const long kBufferSizeUnknown = -1L
Field Value
Type Description
System.Int64

Properties

bufferPtr

Declaration
public InputEventPtr bufferPtr { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
InputEventPtr

capacityInBytes

Amount of unused bytes in the currently allocated buffer.

Declaration
public long capacityInBytes { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Int64
Remarks

A buffer's capacity determines how much event data can be written to the buffer before it has to be reallocated.

data

Declaration
public NativeArray<byte> data { get; set; }
Property Value
Type Description
NativeArray<System.Byte>

eventCount

Total number of events in the buffer.

Declaration
public int eventCount { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Int32

sizeInBytes

Size of the buffer in bytes.

Declaration
public long sizeInBytes { get; }
Property Value
Type Description
System.Int64
Remarks

If the size is not known, returns kBufferSizeUnknown.

Note that the size does not usually correspond to eventCount times sizeof(InputEvent). InputEvent are variable in size.

Methods

AllocateEvent(Int32, Int32)

Declaration
public InputEvent*AllocateEvent(int sizeInBytes, int capacityIncrementInBytes = 2048)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Int32 sizeInBytes
System.Int32 capacityIncrementInBytes
Returns
Type Description
InputEvent*

AppendEvent(InputEvent*, Int32)

Append a new event to the end of the buffer.

Declaration
public void AppendEvent(InputEvent*eventPtr, int capacityIncrementInBytes = 2048)
Parameters
Type Name Description
InputEvent* eventPtr
System.Int32 capacityIncrementInBytes
Remarks

If the buffer's current capacityInBytes is smaller than the sizeInBytes of the given eventPtr,

Contains(InputEvent*)

Whether the given event pointer refers to data within the event buffer.

Declaration
public bool Contains(InputEvent*eventPtr)
Parameters
Type Name Description
InputEvent* eventPtr
Returns
Type Description
System.Boolean
Remarks

Note that this method does NOT check whether the given pointer points to an actual event in the buffer. It solely performs a pointer out-of-bounds check.

Also note that if the size of the memory buffer is unknown (kBufferSizeUnknown, only a lower-bounds check is performed.

Dispose()

Declaration
public void Dispose()

GetEnumerator()

Declaration
public IEnumerator<InputEventPtr> GetEnumerator()
Returns
Type Description
IEnumerator<InputEventPtr>

Reset()

Declaration
public void Reset()
