Classes
class	AZ::RPI::PassTemplatesAutoLoader
	A data-driven System Component that loads PassTemplates across all Gems and the Game Project. @detail This service provides an opt-in mechanism for Gems and any Game Project to load custom PassTemplates.azasset WITHOUT having to write C++ code. This system component works as a convenience service because there's already an API in AZ::RPI::PassSystemInterface::OnReadyLoadTemplatesEvent that helps Gems and Game Projects load their custom PassTemplates (*.azasset), the problem is, of course, that C++ code needs to be written to invoque the API. And this is where this System Component comes to the rescue. How it works? This service, at startup time, looks across all active Gems for assets with the following naming convention: "Passes/<Gem Name>/AutoLoadPassTemplates.azassset". or (Applicable to the Game Project) "Passes/<Project Name>/AutoLoadPassTemplates.azassset". or (Applicable to the Game Project) "Assets/Passes/<Project Name>/AutoLoadPassTemplates.azassset". If any of those asset paths exist, this service will automatically add those PassTemplates to the PassLibrary. More...
