enum in inspector?
I used this http://wiki.unity3d.com/index.php/ExposePropertiesInInspector_Generic for a bool and it worked fine, but when I used it on an enum it gave weird result. Code:
public enum TileDirection
{
Right,
Left,
Top,
Bottom
}
[ExposeProperty]
public TileDirection Direction
{
set
{
direction = value;
Debug.Log(direction);
}
get { return direction; }
}
[HideInInspector, SerializeField]
private TileDirection direction;
when I changed from Bottom to Right I got this:
Am I doing something wrong?
after some testing, I found out that the code that I got from the link got some problems with enum.
In case you don't know, you can change the inspector to Debug $$anonymous$$ode, which will display your private variables.
https://docs.unity3d.com/$$anonymous$$anual/InspectorOptions.html
The problem is most likely that the condition in this line:
if (oldValue != newValue)
will always evaluate to "true" for enum values as the "Enum" type is a class type. So the value will be boxed and comparing boxed values will compare the references and not the actual values.
To fix this issue you would have to change the way how you compare the values inside the "Expose" method:
if (oldValue != null && oldValue.Equals(newValue))
field.SetValue(newValue);
tack on ".ToString()".
eg:
Debug.Log(direction.ToString());
