How can I access an aspect inside an IJobChunk?

[ashen tundra]

I wanted to make a certain job generic, the generic type would be an aspect that I'd handle. However, I can't use generics with IJobEntity, so I switched to IJobChunk, but I can't seem to find how to access an aspect inside an IJobChunk.

Aspects generate a Handle struct you can pass in

Side note, Aspects are deprecated and probably shouldn't be developed around too heavily

I see, is there a replacement in the pipeline for aspects or should I just stick to IComponentData, etc.?

[tall belfry]

none announced

didn't really sound like it though

you read about it in the last milestone updates on discussions

Alright, thanks!

[normal bison]

aspects handles are fully codegen and aren't really matching any generic interface methods, isn't it?
So that wouldn't be possible afaik

[tall belfry]

not sure what this has to do with generics?

aspects generate all the structs you need for IJC

[normal bison]

but can you use those as a generic type?

[tall belfry]

the aspect itself can't be generic

but if there are other generic parts within the job that use a non-generic aspect, sure

but i think i get what you mean

and i re-read the post

i don't think the handle has an interface either so yeah

wouldn't work
