Public Attributes
const char *	m_name { "" }
	Used in XML output and debugging purposes.
u32	m_nameCrc {}
	CRC32 of m_name.
Uuid	m_typeId = AZ::TypeId::CreateNull()
size_t	m_dataSize {}
size_t	m_offset {}
IRttiHelper *	m_azRtti {}
	Interface used to support RTTI.
GenericClassInfo *	m_genericClassInfo = nullptr
	Valid when the generic class is set. So you don't search for the actual type in the class register.
Edit::ElementData *	m_editData {}
	Pointer to edit data (generated by EditContext).

Detailed Description

Class element. When a class doesn't have a direct serializer, he is an aggregation of ClassElements (which can be another classes).

Member Enumeration Documentation

Flags

enum AZ::Serialize::ClassElement::Flags

Enumerator
FLG_POINTER	Element is stored as pointer (it's not a value).
FLG_BASE_CLASS	Set if the element is a base class of the holding class.
FLG_NO_DEFAULT_VALUE	Set if the class element can't have a default value.
FLG_DYNAMIC_FIELD	Set if the class element represents a dynamic field (DynamicSerializableField::m_data).
FLG_UI_ELEMENT	Set if the class element represents a UI element tied to the ClassData of its parent.

Member Data Documentation

m_attributes

AZStd::vector<AttributeSharedPair, AZStdFunctorAllocator> AZ::Serialize::ClassElement::m_attributes

Initial value:

{
            AZStdFunctorAllocator([]() -> IAllocator& { return AZ::AllocatorInstance<AZ::SystemAllocator>::Get(); })
        }

Attributes attached to ClassElement. Lambda is required here as AZStdFunctorAllocator expects a function pointer that returns an IAllocator& and the AZ::AllocatorInstance<AZ::SystemAllocator>::Get returns an AZ::SystemAllocator& which while it inherits from IAllocator, does not work as function pointers do not support covariant return types
