public static void EarlyJobInit<T>() where T : struct, IJobParallelForTransform

Remarks

Unity is responsible for calling this method - don't call it yourself. When the Jobs package is included in the project, Unity generates code to call EarlyJobInit at startup. This results in the following benefits:
  • Job initialization doesn't lazily occur during job scheduling, which would increase the time it takes to schedule a job.
  • Burst compiled code may schedule jobs because the reflection part of initialization, which is not compatible with Burst compiler constraints, has already happened in EarlyJobInit.
Note: While the Jobs package code generator handles this automatically for all closed job types, you must register those with generic arguments (like IJobParallelForTransform<MyJobType<T>>) manually for each specialization with RegisterGenericJobTypeAttribute.
