Description

The GetKey method of the SerializedProperty class is used to retrieve the key of a dictionary entry if the current serialized property represents a dictionary. This method is particularly useful when working with serialized data structures that include dictionary types, allowing you to access the key associated with a specific entry.

Usage

To use the GetKey method, ensure that the SerializedProperty instance represents a dictionary entry. Call the method on the instance to obtain the key of the dictionary entry.

Example

// Assume 'property' is an instance of SerializedProperty representing a dictionary entry
SerializedProperty keyProperty = property.GetKey();

// Use the keyProperty as needed, for example, to get its value
string key = keyProperty.GetValue<string>(defaultValue: "");
