Module meta 

Handle asset metadata. Asset metadata informs how an Asset should be handled by the asset system.

It is primarily used by asset processing.

Asset metadata is generally stored as a .meta file next to the asset, but this may differ per asset storage backend.

Structs

AssetMeta

AssetMetaMinimal

This is a minimal counterpart to AssetMeta that exists to speed up (or enable) serialization in cases where the whole AssetMeta isn’t necessary.

ProcessDependencyInfo

Information about a dependency used to process an asset. This is used to determine whether an asset’s “process dependency” has changed.

ProcessedInfo

Info produced by the AssetProcessor for a given processed asset. This is used to determine if an asset source file (or its dependencies) has changed.

ProcessedInfoMinimal

This is a minimal counterpart to ProcessedInfo that exists to speed up serialization in cases where the whole ProcessedInfo isn’t necessary.

Enums

AssetAction

Configures how an asset source file should be handled by the asset system.

AssetActionMinimal

This is a minimal counterpart to AssetAction that exists to speed up (or enable) serialization in cases where the whole AssetAction isn’t necessary.

Constants

Traits
