The TestCondition method in the ShowIfAttribute class is used to determine whether a specific condition is met for a given object. This method is typically used in the context of the Editor Inspector to decide whether a property should be displayed based on the value of another property within the same class.
To use the TestCondition method, you need to pass the target object and a TypeDescription instance as parameters. The method will return a boolean value indicating whether the condition specified by the ShowIfAttribute is satisfied.
This method is virtual, allowing it to be overridden in derived classes if custom behavior is needed.
// Example usage of ShowIfAttribute.TestCondition
public class MyComponent : Component
{
[ShowIf("IsVisible", true)]
public int VisibleProperty { get; set; }
public bool IsVisible { get; set; }
public void CheckVisibility()
{
ShowIfAttribute showIf = new ShowIfAttribute("IsVisible", true);
bool shouldShow = showIf.TestCondition(this, new TypeDescription(typeof(MyComponent)));
// shouldShow will be true if IsVisible is true
}
}
