Key Use Cases in Unity Projects

1. Safe Data Access

• Lists and Arrays: The SafeGet extension methods for lists and arrays help retrieve elements without worrying about null references, out-of-bounds errors, or runtime crashes. For example:

var myList = new List<int> { 1, 2, 3 };
var result = myList.SafeGet(5);
if (result.isError)
Debug.LogError(result.errorMessage);
else
Debug.Log(result.result);

• This is especially useful when working with dynamically sized collections, such as inventories, object pools, or runtime-generated datasets.

2. Error Messaging with Context

• The use of [CallerMemberName] and [CallerLineNumber] attributes in SafeGet methods allows developers to quickly identify where an error occurred in the code. This makes debugging faster and more intuitive.Example: “Index is outside bounds of array at MyMethod at line 42.”
  

3. GameObject Modifications

• The SafeModify method provides a structured way to modify GameObjects while handling potential exceptions gracefully. This can be used for tasks such as:Adding or removing components.
  Updating properties (e.g., transform.position, Renderer.material).
  Custom logic based on runtime checks.Example:
  

GameObject myObject = GameObject.Find("Player");
myObject.SafeModify(obj =>
{
obj.transform.position = new Vector3(0, 1, 0);
}, error => Debug.LogError(error));

4. Preventing Common Errors in Unity

• Null Reference Exceptions: These extensions ensure that null references are caught and handled before they cause crashes.
• Index Out-of-Bounds: Improves safety when accessing indices, reducing runtime errors caused by invalid inputs.
• Runtime Exception Handling: Provides a unified approach to catching exceptions across different object types, ensuring smoother gameplay and debugging.

5. Customization and Extendability

• By providing a generic structure (SearchResult<T>), this framework allows developers to easily extend functionality to other data types, like custom structs or objects.
• For instance, a custom extension method could be created for retrieving specific components from a list of GameObjects:

public static SearchResult<T> SafeGetComponent<T>(this GameObject obj) where T : Component
{
if (obj == null)
return SearchResult<T>.Error("GameObject is null");

T component = obj.GetComponent<T>();
return component != null
? SearchResult<T>.Success(component)
: SearchResult<T>.Error($"Component {typeof(T)} not found on GameObject");
}

6. Collaborative Development and Modular Code

• Enables safer code when multiple developers are working on a project. The clear separation of error handling (e.g., using onError callbacks) and functional logic (e.g., onSuccess) helps streamline debugging and maintenance.
• Example:

myGameObject.SafeModify(obj =>
{
obj.AddComponent<Rigidbody>();
}, error => Debug.LogError($"Failed to modify GameObject: {error}"));

7. Error Logging for QA and Bug Tracking

• With precise error messages and contextual information, QA testers can pinpoint issues and provide detailed reports. Developers can also integrate these error messages with bug tracking tools.

Benefits for Unity Developers

• Reduced Debugging Time: Eliminates the need to manually write boilerplate error checks for common operations.
• Improved Stability: Prevents crashes caused by common mistakes like accessing null objects or out-of-range indices.
• Enhanced Collaboration: Clear error reporting ensures team members can quickly identify and resolve issues.
• Code Reusability: The generic approach and extensible design ensure that these utilities can be reused across various projects and scenarios.

By integrating these utilities into a Unity project, developers can focus on building features and gameplay mechanics rather than worrying about runtime stability.
