描述

Value of the SerializedProperty, boxed as a System.Object.

This property represents the value of the SerializedProperty as a System.Object which wraps the underlying type.

This property makes it easier to write code that doesn't need the precise type of a SerializedProperty to get or set its value. For example this property can access any numeric type, strings, built-in types like Vector3 and ManagedReference objects with the same syntax. This property can remove the need for switch-case statements or slow alternatives based on .NET Reflection to determine a SerializedProperty's type.

Wrapping a value type as a heap-based System.Object requires a transformation called "boxing", which adds a performance overhead. In cases where performance is important and you know the type ahead of time, use the appropriate type-specific accessors like intValue, stringValue, or managedReferenceValue instead of this property. This removes the performance overhead that this property requires for boxing.

When your application sets this property, Unity attempts to unbox and convert the provided System.Object into the property type of the SerializedProperty. If this fails, Unity throws an InvalidCastException error.

boxedValue has some limitations for properties of type SerializedPropertyType.Generic: Structs and objects serialized by-value can be accessed, unless they contain fields with the SerializeReference attribute or fixed buffers. The property cannot be an array or list. But accessing a property that is an element of an array or list is supported. Unity built-in Struct types that are categorized in the Generic type cannot be accessed. But built-in types like Vector3 that have a their own entry in the SerializedPropertyType enum do work. See Also: propertyType.
