Inheritance diagram for UpdatableAssetInterface:

Detailed Description

An UpdatableAsset is an Asset which supports the update of its updatable references to other assets to newer versions. Such an update doesn't create a new repository version of the asset because the asset definition itself isn't changed, only the references (represented by AssetLink) point to newer assets.

Update()

MAXON_METHOD Result<void> Update	(	const Block< const Tuple< AssetReference, AssetBase >> &	updates,
		const AssetRepositoryRef &	repository
	)

Updates the given references of this asset to point to the corresponding assets. The references have to use updatable AssetLink objects (their update policy must not be ASSET_UPDATE_POLICY::NEVER). Afterwards the update counter is incremented.

Parameters

[in]	updates	The updates to apply as a block of the references and their new targets.
[in]	repository	The repository to which this asset belongs. {asset.GetRepository()} will be nullptr during the update because the asset is in mutable state.
