enum ezVariantType::Enum : ezUInt8

This enum describes the type of data that is currently stored inside the variant. Note that changes to this enum require an increase of the reflection version and either patches to the serializer or a re-export of binary data that contains ezVariants.

Enumerator
Invalid	The variant stores no (valid) data at the moment.
FirstStandardType	*** Types that are flagged as 'StandardTypes' (see DetermineTypeFlags) ***
Bool	The variant stores a bool.
Int8	The variant stores an ezInt8.
UInt8	The variant stores an ezUInt8.
Int16	The variant stores an ezInt16.
UInt16	The variant stores an ezUInt16.
Int32	The variant stores an ezInt32.
UInt32	The variant stores an ezUInt32.
Int64	The variant stores an ezInt64.
UInt64	The variant stores an ezUInt64.
Float	The variant stores a float.
Double	The variant stores a double.
Color	The variant stores an ezColor.
Vector2	The variant stores an ezVec2.
Vector3	The variant stores an ezVec3.
Vector4	The variant stores an ezVec4.
Vector2I	The variant stores an ezVec2I32.
Vector3I	The variant stores an ezVec3I32.
Vector4I	The variant stores an ezVec4I32.
Vector2U	The variant stores an ezVec2U32.
Vector3U	The variant stores an ezVec3U32.
Vector4U	The variant stores an ezVec4U32.
Quaternion	The variant stores an ezQuat.
Matrix3	The variant stores an ezMat3. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
Matrix4	The variant stores an ezMat4. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
Transform	The variant stores an ezTransform. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
String	The variant stores a string. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
StringView	The variant stores an ezStringView.
DataBuffer	The variant stores an ezDataBuffer, a typedef to DynamicArray<ezUInt8>. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
Time	The variant stores an ezTime value.
Uuid	The variant stores an ezUuid value.
Angle	The variant stores an ezAngle value.
ColorGamma	The variant stores an ezColorGammaUB value.
HashedString	The variant stores an ezHashedString value.
TempHashedString	The variant stores an ezTempHashedString value.
FirstExtendedType	*** Types that are flagged as 'StandardTypes' (see DetermineTypeFlags) ***
VariantArray	The variant stores an array of ezVariant's. A heap allocation is required to store this data type.
VariantDictionary	The variant stores a dictionary (hashmap) of ezVariant's. A heap allocation is required to store this type.
TypedPointer	The variant stores an ezTypedPointer value. Reflected type and data queries will match the pointed to object.
TypedObject	The variant stores an ezTypedObject value. Reflected type and data queries will match the object. A heap allocation is required to store this type if it is larger than 16 bytes or not POD.
LastExtendedType	Number of values for ezVariant::Type.
Default	Default value used by ezEnum.
