SetData(Array)

Set the buffer with values from an array.
public void SetData(Array data)

Parameters

data

Array of values to fill the buffer.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.

SetData<T>(List<T>)

Set the buffer with values from an array.
public void SetData<T>(List<T> data) where T : struct

Parameters

Array of values to fill the buffer.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.

SetData<T>(NativeArray<T>)

Set the buffer with values from an array.
public void SetData<T>(NativeArray<T> data) where T : struct

Parameters

Array of values to fill the buffer.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.

SetData(Array, int, int, int)

Partial copy of data values from an array into the buffer.
public void SetData(Array data, int managedBufferStartIndex, int computeBufferStartIndex, int count)

Parameters

data

Array of values to fill the buffer.

managedBufferStartIndex

The first element index in data to copy to the compute buffer.

computeBufferStartIndex

The first element index in compute buffer to receive the data.

count

The number of elements to copy.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.

SetData<T>(List<T>, int, int, int)

Partial copy of data values from an array into the buffer.
public void SetData<T>(List<T> data, int managedBufferStartIndex, int computeBufferStartIndex, int count) where T : struct

Parameters

Array of values to fill the buffer.

managedBufferStartIndex

The first element index in data to copy to the compute buffer.

computeBufferStartIndex

The first element index in compute buffer to receive the data.

count

The number of elements to copy.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.

SetData<T>(NativeArray<T>, int, int, int)

Partial copy of data values from an array into the buffer.
public void SetData<T>(NativeArray<T> data, int nativeBufferStartIndex, int computeBufferStartIndex, int count) where T : struct

Parameters

Array of values to fill the buffer.

nativeBufferStartIndex


computeBufferStartIndex

The first element index in compute buffer to receive the data.

count

The number of elements to copy.

Remarks

The input data must follow the data layout rules of the graphics API in use. See Compute Shaders for cross-platform compatibility information.
Note: Because only blittable data types can be copied from the array to the buffer, the array must only contain elements of a blittable type. If you attempt to use non-blittable types, an exception will be raised.
