Detailed Description

Interface for allocators that create instances of reflected types.

The RTTI allocator system provides controlled object creation for reflected types, enabling features like custom memory management, object pooling, and creation tracking. Different allocator implementations can optimize for specific use cases:

ezRTTIDefaultAllocator: Standard heap allocation
ezRTTINoAllocator: Prevents dynamic allocation (compile-time types only)
Custom allocators: Object pools, stack allocation, etc.

Member Function Documentation

◆ AllocateInternal()

virtual ezInternal::NewInstance< void > ezRTTIAllocator::AllocateInternal ( ezAllocator * pAllocator )

privatepure virtual

Implemented in ezRTTINoAllocator, and ezRTTIDefaultAllocator< CLASS, AllocatorWrapper >.

◆ CanAllocate()

virtual bool ezRTTIAllocator::CanAllocate ( ) const

inlinevirtual

Returns whether the type that is represented by this allocator, can be dynamically allocated at runtime.

Reimplemented in ezRTTINoAllocator.

◆ CloneInternal()

virtual ezInternal::NewInstance< void > ezRTTIAllocator::CloneInternal	(	const void *	pObject,
		ezAllocator *	pAllocator
	)

inlineprivatevirtual

Reimplemented in ezRTTIDefaultAllocator< CLASS, AllocatorWrapper >.

◆ Deallocate()

virtual void ezRTTIAllocator::Deallocate	(	void *	pObject,
		ezAllocator *	pAllocator = `nullptr`
	)

pure virtual

Deallocates the given instance.

Implemented in ezRTTINoAllocator, ezRTTIDefaultAllocator< CLASS, AllocatorWrapper >, and ezVisualScriptCoroutineAllocator.
