Change 3209340 on 2016/11/23 by Ben.Marsh
Convert UE4 codebase to an "include what you use" model - where every header just includes the dependencies it needs, rather than every source file including large monolithic headers like Engine.h and UnrealEd.h.
Measured full rebuild times around 2x faster using XGE on Windows, and improvements of 25% or more for incremental builds and full rebuilds on most other platforms.
* Every header now includes everything it needs to compile.
* There's a CoreMinimal.h header that gets you a set of ubiquitous types from Core (eg. FString, FName, TArray, FVector, etc...). Most headers now include this first.
* There's a CoreTypes.h header that sets up primitive UE4 types and build macros (int32, PLATFORM_WIN64, etc...). All headers in Core include this first, as does CoreMinimal.h.
* Every .cpp file includes its matching .h file first.
* This helps validate that each header is including everything it needs to compile.
* No engine code includes a monolithic header such as Engine.h or UnrealEd.h any more.
* You will get a warning if you try to include one of these from the engine. They still exist for compatibility with game projects and do not produce warnings when included there.
* There have only been minor changes to our internal games down to accommodate these changes. The intent is for this to be as seamless as possible.
* No engine code explicitly includes a precompiled header any more.
* We still use PCHs, but they're force-included on the compiler command line by UnrealBuildTool instead. This lets us tune what they contain without breaking any existing include dependencies.
* PCHs are generated by a tool to get a statistical amount of coverage for the source files using it, and I've seeded the new shared PCHs to contain any header included by > 15% of source files.
Tool used to generate this transform is at Engine\Source\Programs\IncludeTool.

Change 2821607 on 2016/01/08 by Mieszko.Zielinski
Added a way to limit amount of information logged by vlog by discarding logs from classes from outside of class whitelist #UE4
This feature was followed by refactoring of functions taking FVisualLogEntry pointers to use references instead.

Change 2828384 on 2016/01/14 by Mieszko.Zielinski
Back out of visual log refactor done as part of CL#2821607 #UE4
Change 2869215 on 2016/02/16 by Marc.Audy
Store a WorldSettings pointer on ULevel instead of requiring it be index 0 in the Actors array. However, we will still generally attempt to keep it at index 0 for consistency with previous behavior

Change 2875838 on 2016/02/22 by Benn.Gallagher
[CL 2880055 by Marc Audy in Main branch]
- One driver value can now drive multiple components
- How a component is driven is now configurable (add to input, replace, add to ref pose and replace)
- The range limit is now defined on the input (before the multiplier is applied) rather than the output (existing ranges are fixed up on load)
- New details customization to make working with the node easier
- Individual scale components can now be a driver or one of the driven components, rather than just the max component of scale
- The node title now displays the driving equation (e.g., driven.rotation.z = -0.5 * driver.rotation.x)
Animation: Added a custom version for AnimGraph/AnimGraphRuntime usage
Upgrade Note: The exact behavior of the original node was not preserved, but there are now more configuration options, so please revisit any uses of bone driven controllers in your animation blueprints
[CL 2606968 by Michael Noland in Main branch]
- Added support for using a curve to map from input range to output range
- Added compilation warnings when a bone or component still needs to be selected
- Added a customization to hide the range/multipler when using a curve, and gated editing of the range based on bUseRange
- Minor optimization to evaluation speed
- Reorganized the properties into logical groups (Source/Driver, Mapping, Destination/Driven)
[CL 2591125 by Michael Noland in Main branch]
- Changed some classes from MinimalAPI to full export, since all methods were already being exported
- Added some comments
- Some style tweaks (tabs/ws in function declarations)
[CL 2583709 by Michael Noland in Main branch]
- Moved all skeletal control nodes to start out
Upgrade Note: Modules containing custom animation nodes will need to have a dependency on the new "AnimGraphRuntime" module added to their Build.cs file
