Question What is the "JobHandle OnUpdate(JobHandle)" overload

I have stumpled across code overriding an OnUpdate() overload, namely:

Code (CSharp):

1. protected override JobHandle OnUpdate(JobHandle inputDeps)
2. {
3.     // ...
4. }
5.  

This overload does not appear in the ECS manual, and my Unity (Unity version 2020.2.0f1, Entities version 0.16.0-preview.21) cannot find the method when i try overriding it in a system.

Has it been removed, or am i doing something wrong. What is it supposed to do, and what can i do instead?

 

You're probably looking at a JobComponentSystem instead of SystemBase

 

In SystemBase, instead of JobHandle being passed in and then returned, it is now a property of the system called Dependency which you can use and modify however you need to.

 

That must be the reason. Thanks a lot for the quick answer.

Edit* and thanks for the explanation.
