Enum CompareOperator

Specifies the comparison operator used when evaluating a field condition in a conditional Inspector attribute.

Namespace: Scylla.Core.Attributes
Assembly: ScyllaCore.dll
Syntax
public enum CompareOperator
Remarks

CompareOperator is consumed by ConditionalAttributeBase and all attributes that derive from it - ShowIfAttribute, HideIfAttribute, EnableIfAttribute, and DisableIfAttribute. The operator controls how the runtime value of the condition field is compared against the value supplied to the attribute constructor.

When no explicit CompareOperator is provided to a conditional attribute, Equals is used as the default. When no compare value is provided at all (i.e. only a field name is given), the condition evaluates the truthiness of the field - non-zero numbers, non-null references, and non-empty strings are treated as true.

Ordering operators (LessThan, LessThanOrEqual, GreaterThan, GreaterThanOrEqual) are meaningful only for numeric field types (int, float, double, etc.). Applying them to non-numeric fields produces undefined behaviour in the custom Inspector drawer.

BitwiseAnd is intended for fields whose type is an enum decorated with [System.Flags]. The condition is met when the bitwise AND of the field value and the compare value is non-zero, meaning at least one of the specified flag bits is set.

Equality check - show a prefab slot only when a boolean toggle is enabled:

[SerializeField] private bool _useProjectile;

[ShowIf(nameof(_useProjectile))]                              // implicit Equals + truthiness
[SerializeField] private GameObject _projectilePrefab;

Ordering check - show a critical-hit VFX slot only when damage exceeds a threshold:

[SerializeField] private int _attackDamage = 25;

[ShowIf(nameof(_attackDamage), 50, CompareOperator.GreaterThan)]
[SerializeField] private ParticleSystem _criticalHitEffect;

Flags check - enable an advanced options group only when certain mode flags are set:

[System.Flags]
public enum DebugFlags { None = 0, Verbose = 1, Profiling = 2, Networking = 4 }

[SerializeField] private DebugFlags _activeFlags;


[ShowIf(nameof(_activeFlags), DebugFlags.Profiling, CompareOperator.BitwiseAnd)]
[SerializeField] private int _profilingSampleCount = 100;

Fields

Name Description
BitwiseAnd

Condition is met when the bitwise AND of the field value and the compare value is non-zero - meaning at least one flag bit specified in the compare value is set on the field.
Equals

Condition is met when the field value is equal to the compare value.
GreaterThan

Condition is met when the field value is strictly greater than the compare value.
GreaterThanOrEqual

Condition is met when the field value is greater than or equal to the compare value.
LessThan

Condition is met when the field value is strictly less than the compare value.
LessThanOrEqual

Condition is met when the field value is less than or equal to the compare value.
NotEquals

Condition is met when the field value is not equal to the compare value.
