Unity does not serialize nested arrays or lists. SaintsArray and SaintsList are there to help.

The target can also be interface / abstract type.

using SaintsField;

// two dimensional array
public SaintsArray<GameObject>[] gameObjects2;
public SaintsArray<SaintsArray<GameObject>> gameObjects2Nest;
// four dimensional array, if you like.
public SaintsArray<SaintsArray<SaintsArray<GameObject>>>[] gameObjects4;

SaintsArray implements IList with the fixed-size behavior of an array. SaintsList implements IList and mirrors the common List APIs:

using SaintsField;

// SaintsArray
GameObject firstGameObject = saintsArrayGo[0];
saintsArrayGo[0] = anotherGameObject;

// SaintsList
saintsListGo.Add(new GameObject());
saintsListGo.RemoveAt(0);
saintsListGo.Sort((a, b) => string.CompareOrdinal(a.name, b.name));

These two can be easily converted to array/list:

using SaintsField;

// SaintsArray to Array
GameObject[] arrayGo = saintsArrayGo;
// Array to SaintsArray
SaintsArray<GameObject> expSaintsArrayGo = (SaintsArray<GameObject>)arrayGo;

// SaintsList to List
List<GameObject> ListGo = saintsListGo;
// List to SaintsList
SaintsList<GameObject> expSaintsListGo = (SaintsList<GameObject>)ListGo;

SaintsArray Attribute

This allows you to set search and paging.

• bool searchable = true: make it searchable
• int numberOfItemsPerPage = 0: items per page

[SaintsArray(numberOfItemsPerPage: 5)] public SaintsArray<int[]> pagging;

Reference Type

Example of using interface

public SaintsArray<IInterface1[]> inters;
