Tag: Difference

Within my Unity Project in my code, (see below), I have a button called Check which executes when CheckPress() function is called. I read two approaches by which this can be done.

Appraoch 1: Using Check.onClick.AddListener(CheckPress); and then attaching script to Canvas. When I press run and click the Check button, this works.

Approach 2: The other approach I read is that, I can attach my script to Canvas. From there I select the button Check from hierarchy, then under inspector I see On Click(), I click + sign and then drag the Canvas and place it in Object (see the attached image), then under No Function I select the CheckButtonBehaviour Script and select the CheckPress(). When I press run and click the Check button, this also works as intended.

I wanted to know if these two approaches are same or different. If they are different, then in which context either approach should be implemented.

}

public void CheckPress()

    byte() data0 = Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("starting"); ///OLD CODE part
    client.Send(data0, data0.Length, remoteEndPoint);
    Debug.Log("<color=blue>Something is sent to MAX</color> : starting");

    Check.gameObject.SetActive(true);
    Check.interactable = false;
    Check.enabled = false;

    Play.gameObject.SetActive(true);
    NextSignal.gameObject.SetActive(true);
