Inheritance diagram for BaseSerializationLoadContext:

Public Member Functions
proto bool	Read (out void value)
	Read a given value. Name of property is automatically derived from the input variable name.
proto bool	ReadValue (string name, out void value)
	Read an explictly named value.
proto bool	ReadDefault (out void value, void defaultValue)
	s. Read, if the property was not found but the context type allows to seek members (e.g. json) it will return the default value provided.
proto bool	ReadValueDefault (string name, out void value, void defaultValue)
	s. ReadValue andReadDefault
proto bool	ReadMapKey (int idx, out string key)
	Manual map key reading, must be read in order (idx=0..N)
proto external bool	DoesKeyExist (string name)
	Check if the currently open object has any member with the given key name.
proto external bool	DoesObjectExist (string name)
	Check if the context has a child object of that name.
Public Member Functions inherited from BaseSerializationContext
proto external bool	CanSeekMembers ()
proto external bool	IsValid ()
proto external string	GetDataExtension ()
proto external void	ConfigureTypeDiscriminator (string fieldName="$type")
	Type discriminator is used to add polymorph object instance support to the serializer.
proto external bool	EnableTypeDiscriminator (bool enabled)
	Enable or disable, can be used to pause it for a specific variable and resume after it was written.
proto external bool	IsTypeDiscriminatorEnabled ()
	Is the type discrimiation currently enabled.
proto external void	Reset ()
	Reset buffers to re-use for new data.
proto bool	StartMap (string name, out int count)
	Start new map. Empty name will result in an anonymous map. Count must be known ahead of time.
proto external bool	EndMap ()
proto bool	StartArray (string name, out int count)
	Start new array. Empty name will result in an anonymous array. Count must be known ahead of time.
proto external bool	EndArray ()
proto external bool	StartObject (string name=string.Empty)
	Start new subobject. Empty name will result in an anonymous object.
proto external bool	EndObject ()
Public Member Functions inherited from Managed
proto external ref Managed	Clone ()
	Return shallow copy of object, or null if it is not allowed (not public constructor)

Detailed Description

Base serialization context for loading data back to the game.

It works as an adapter between the game logic and serialized data.

Member Function Documentation

DoesKeyExist()

proto external bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.DoesKeyExist

(

string

name

)

Check if the currently open object has any member with the given key name.

This includes child objects. NOTE: Support depends on specific context implementation. Binary container will always return true!

DoesObjectExist()

proto external bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.DoesObjectExist

(

string

name

)

Check if the context has a child object of that name.

NOTE: Support depends on specific context implementation. Binary container will always return true unless object seeking is enabled!

Read()

proto bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.Read

(

out void

value

)

Read a given value. Name of property is automatically derived from the input variable name.

ReadDefault()

proto bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.ReadDefault	(	out void	value,
		void	defaultValue )

s. Read, if the property was not found but the context type allows to seek members (e.g. json) it will return the default value provided.

ReadMapKey()

proto bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.ReadMapKey	(	int	idx,
		out string	key )

Manual map key reading, must be read in order (idx=0..N)

ReadValue()

proto bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.ReadValue	(	string	name,
		out void	value )

Read an explictly named value.

ReadValueDefault()

proto bool BaseSerializationLoadContext.ReadValueDefault	(	string	name,
		out void	value,
		void	defaultValue )

s. ReadValue andReadDefault
