ExpectData is an extension of CompositeData which indicates that the composite expects to be operating on the data types listed in its template arguments. All of the expected types will benefit from very high-speed operations when being accessed from an object of type ExpectData<Expected>. The ordinary CompositeData class needs to perform a map lookup on the data type whenever one of its functions is called, but an ExpectData<T> object does not need to perform any map lookup when performing an operation on T (e.g. .Get<T>(), .Insert<T>(), .Query<T>(), .Has<T>(), etc).

Detailed Description

template<typename Expected>
class ignition::physics::ExpectData< Expected >

ExpectData is an extension of CompositeData which indicates that the composite expects to be operating on the data types listed in its template arguments. All of the expected types will benefit from very high-speed operations when being accessed from an object of type ExpectData<Expected>. The ordinary CompositeData class needs to perform a map lookup on the data type whenever one of its functions is called, but an ExpectData<T> object does not need to perform any map lookup when performing an operation on T (e.g. .Get<T>(), .Insert<T>(), .Query<T>(), .Has<T>(), etc).

Note that there is no guarantee that any of the types listed in its template arguments will exist in the underlying CompositeData, but it will still provide very high-speed access for creating and querying them even if they are not yet present.

This template specialization implements ExpectData for a single type, but the ExpectData template can accept any number of types, e.g. ExpectData<T, U, V, W>.
