    When creating a ComponentGroup using a Query in OnCreateManager and applying a Filter you get this Error : 

    InvalidOperationException: Trying to get iterator for SharedComponentX but the required component type was not declared in the EntityGroup.


    While creating a ComponentGroup using a ComponentType[] and applying a Filter on it will work fine.

    Ives noticed this as well. However, the ComponentGroup.CreateArchetypeChunkArray() method does work.

    Can some one from the ECS team confirm if this is intentional? Is manual filtering the go-to solution?

    Yeah the new EntityArchetypeQuery & CreateArchetypeChunkArray API's are still very much WIP...
