No Alloc Collections Documentation

No Alloc Collections is a library that provides stack only data structures. This means that you cannot store these collections as member variables in structs or classes.

You can store them in ref struct as they are within the closure of the stack.

Installation  

  • For use within Unity please use OpenUpm.
  • For use with regular dotnet projects, please add the source in your project for now.

Planned Support  

  • A nuget package will eventually be provided to use in dotnet projects.

NoAllocBitArray

NoAllocBitArray namespace InitialPrefabs.Collections Summary A stack only bitarray treats each bit as a boolean per byte. This means that each byte can store 8 booleans. int CalculateSize(int totalBools) Summary Calculates the total number of bytes the NoAllocBitArray can store. For example if you want to store 8 booleans, we will only need 1 byte. ...

NoAllocEnumerator

NoAllocEnumerator namespace InitialPrefabs.Collections Summary A generic stack only iterator to be used with any kind of collection. TypeParam bool MoveNext() Summary Increments the iterator until it reaches the end of the collection. ...

NoAllocListExtensions

NoAllocListExtensions namespace InitialPrefabs.Collections void Clear(this ref NoAllocList list) Summary Resets the counter internally to 0. Does not clear out the memory so the elements still persist. As far as the list is aware, there is nothing stored. ...

NoAllocPriorityQueue

NoAllocPriorityQueue namespace InitialPrefabs.Collections Summary A stack only priority queue is a queue that allows each item stored an assigned priority. The priority determines the order of service when an element is dequed. They can serve the highest priority or lowest priority based on the implementation of TComparer. ...
