MAJOR FEATURES & CHANGES
============================
Change 3851142 by Robert.Manuszewski
When BP clustering is enabled, make sure to add the template to the BP cluster when replacing it.
Change 3853797 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add a <Trace> element, which allows logging messages after the string is parsed (as opposed to the Log task, which logs them at runtime). Useful for debugging macro expansion, etc...
Also add a -showdiagnostics parameter, to have diagnostic messages output even when running with the -listonly option.
Change 3857540 by Graeme.Thornton
Properly process the uexp file for a umap asset when generating a pak patch. Stop those uexp files being included in the patch even when they haven't changed
Change 3860062 by Steve.Robb
Fix for FString::Reset()'s buffer not being an empty null-terminated string (affects FString::ParseIntoArray, for example).
Change 3860138 by Steve.Robb
Fix for FString::ParseIntoArray() for when string memory has been allocated but has no characters.
Change 3860273 by Steve.Robb
Tidy up of FHotReloadClassReinstancer::FCDOWriter to not do stuff in constructors.
Change 3863203 by Steve.Robb
Crash fix for UObjects whose constructors are defined as = default;, which would re-null the UObject state (ClassPrivate, OuterPrivate etc.).
See: https://udn.unrealengine.com/questions/412930/crash-due-to-default-constructor.html
Change 3864588 by Graeme.Thornton
Crypto Keys Improvements
- Removed UAT command line params for encryption. Centrally configured by the editor settings now.
- UAT staging now creates a small json file containing the keys and settings used for encryption and signing and stores it in the build metadata
- Minor refactoring of UAT encryption processing to use the new cryptokeys json file
- UnrealPak can be told to get its encryption settings from a json crypto file with the "-CryptoKeys=<filename>"
- UnrealPak can now accept a "PatchCryptoKeys=<filename" parameter which gives it a filename to a cryptokeys json file that it can use to unpack the patch reference paks
Change 3864691 by Robert.Manuszewski
Don't add objects that are in root set to GC clusters to prevent them from keeping the clusters alive forever.
Change 3864744 by Robert.Manuszewski
Added the ability to get the actual filename of the log file FOutputDeviceFile writes to.
Change 3864816 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Minor formatting improvements to textasset commandlet
Change 3868939 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: If -outputPath isn't supplied to TextAsset commandlet, output converted files to the {ProjectSaved}/TextAssets directory
Change 3869031 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Changed timing logs in TextAsset commandlet to be Display so we can see them in the EC log
Change 3871802 by Steve.Robb
Class cast flags and property flags are now visible in the debugger.
Change 3871863 by Robert.Manuszewski
Serializing object will now be passed to GC so that it can be logged in case the referenced objects is garbage.
Change 3874413 by Steve.Robb
Algo::MinElement and Algo::MaxElement, for finding the minimum and maximum element in a range, and *By versions which take projections.
TRangePointerType moved to its own file and used in Algo::MinElement and Algo::MaxElement.
Change 3874457 by Ben.Marsh
When spawning child processes, only allow them to inherit the writable ends of the stderr and stdout pipe. Fixes an issue related to AutomationTool hanging when the editor closes after running automation tests.
The editor launches ADB.EXE (Android Debug Bridge) on editor startup, which forks itself to initialize a server. Even though the child process has its own stdout and stderr pipes, it also inherits the pipes for the editor. When run from C#, as we do for automation tests, Process.WaitForExit() waits for all pipes to be closed before returning. This can't happen if the forked ADB instance still has a reference to the editor's pipes.
Change 3876435 by Robert.Manuszewski
Don't add root set objects to level actor container to prevent situations where clusters are kept alive forever
Change 3878762 by Robert.Manuszewski
Fixing potential LinkerLoad leak when a package that still has a linker associated with it is being destroyed.
Change 3878850 by Robert.Manuszewski
SerializePreloadDependencies will now serialize raw data into the array instead of serializing one element at a time to speed up serialization performance.
Change 3881331 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: SavePackage rejigged to write all header information in terms of FStructuredArchive, with all exports written through an FArchive adapter
Change 3886983 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix notification window not expanding to fit long captions.
Change 3887006 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Change modal dialog to regular window style to avoid weird alignment issues under Windows 10.
Change 3887500 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add support for grouping build badges by a prefix. Badges such as "Foo:Bar1", "Foo:Bar2" will be grouped together (with "Foo:" stripped from the displayed badge names).
Also add a separate column showing the type of each change, rather than including it in the CIS column, and change badges to a more angular Windows 10 style.
Change 3887513 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix badge text drawing outside the clipping bounds.
Change 3888010 by Josh.Engebretson
Fix UVS logging to UnrealVersionSelector/Saved/Logs and instead use project's log path
#jira none
Change 3888418 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add a cache for computed badge layout information. Improves responsiveness when redrawing.
Change 3889457 by Steve.Robb
GitHub #4457 : Display abbreviations properly when converting FNames to display string
#jira UE-54611
Change 3889547 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add an extensible method for adding arbitrary badges to the right of the "description" column, by running a regular expression over the changelist description.
Epic uses a "#tag" style annotations in changelist descriptions and Perforce triggers to verify them. "#jira" is used to link a changelist to an issue tracked in Jira, for example. A matcher to add a badge next to every changelist with a #jira tag, and link to the corresponding issue in Jira, could be set up with an addition to the project's Build/UnrealGameSync.ini file like this:
[Badges]
+DescriptionBadges=(Pattern="(?i)#\\s*jira\\s*:?\\s+([A-Za-z]+-[0-9]+)", Name="$1", Group="Jira", Color="#c0c0c0", HoverColor="#e0e0e0", Url="https://jira.it.epicgames.net/browse/$1")
The "Pattern" attribute specifies the regex to match, and may capture portions of the matched text to be substituted later. "Label" specifies the label to appear on the badge. "Group" specifies an arbitrary identifier used to group related badges together rather than separating them with whitespace. "Color" and "HoverColor" specify hex RGB colors for the badges. "Url" specifies the path to open with a C# Process.Open call if the badge is clicked.
Change 3889726 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix description badges that don't have any associated URL.
Change 3889995 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix issue where popup menus can create top level windows in the taskbar. Seemlingly caused by capturing mouse before the window has been activated - removed capture code, and replaced with handling of OnMouseLeave() event instead.
Change 3890007 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add a caption underneath the project logo which shows the current stream, to make it more obvious.
Change 3890057 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix repainting glitch when resizing window; bounds for status panel lines was not being reset correctly.
Change 3891069 by Robert.Manuszewski
Fixing a crash in MallocBinned2 when running with malloc profiler enabled.
Change 3891084 by Steve.Robb
Back out changelist 3881331 because it's causing cook errors.
Change 3891100 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add support for a per-branch "message of the day"-style feature. Messages can be specified in a project's config file in Perforce (eg. <ProjectDir>/Build/UnrealGameSync.ini) as follows:
[//UE4/Main/Samples/Games/ShooterGame.uproject]
Message=:alert: Lockdown for fixes is **5pm on Friday**. Only fixes for the 2.0 release should be submitted to this branch. [34 issues](https://jira.it.epicgames.net) are remaining as of 2/15.
A limited subset of Markdown is supported: [web links](http://www.google.com), *italic*, _italic_, **bold**, __bold__. Icons will be supported through :icon: syntax; the only icon currently available is :alert:
Change 3891346 by Steve.Robb
TSharedPtr::operator bool, and some usage of it.
Change 3891787 by Steve.Robb
Fix for buffer overflow in FDebug::LogFormattedMessageWithCallstack().
Change 3892379 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix notification window containing the group fix for each build type.
Change 3892400 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Shrink the size of the alert panel.
Change 3892496 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Dim badges for changes which aren't eligable for syncing.
Change 3893932 by Steve.Robb
Re-removal of SetShouldHandleAsWeakRef, which was originally removed in CL# 3437205.
Change 3895872 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Show the stream name in tab labels by default.
Change 3896366 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Automatically resize columns when the main window is resized, and allow specifying desired column widths for projects that have a large number of CIS badges.
Columns are now resized proportionally, clamped to a minimum size. Columns will automatically expand up to a desired maximum size, though can be explicitly resized larger if necessary. Columns will not be resized if they are already larger than the window can show, or smaller than the window has space to show.
Change 3896367 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: UI tweaks - change and time columns are now centered, "Unknown" badge is displayed until a change's type has been determined, increase height of status panel.
Change 3896425 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Speculative fix for race condition on clients displaying "under investigation" state. If the DB event is received before a change where an investigation is cancelled is polled from Perforce, we will exclude the resolve event from the list of active investigations.
Change 3896461 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add an option to allow setting a tint color to be applied to the status panel, to allow identifying streams more easily. To use, add a setting similar to the following to a project's Build/UnrealGameSync.ini file:
[//UE4/Main/Samples/Games/ShooterGame/ShooterGame.uproject]
StatusPanelColor=#dcdcf0
Change 3899530 by Ben.Marsh
Add unified syntax for overriding branch specific settings. Checks branch settings first, then [Default] section.
Change 3901164 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add a class to store all the resources for the status panel.
Change 3901165 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Attempt #2 at submitting the text asset saving code. SavePackage rejigged to write all header information in terms of FStructuredArchive, with all exports written through an FArchive adapter. Minimal amount of structured archive serialization functions added to allow this data to be written
Change 3901301 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add support for reading the latest version of the project config file from Perforce. Some settings should be read depending on the CL you are synced to (eg. build steps), whereas others (MOTD, branch status) should always use the latest version. Will read the local version if checked out, to allow testing local changes.
Change 3902454 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix logo not being redrawn in the correct position when starting to sync.
Change 3903416 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Group badges explicitly through INI file rather than by expecting name to contain ':'.
Change 3904154 by Josh.Engebretson
Adding Breakpad to ThirdParty sources (Git Commit: 49907e1c3457570f56d959ae26dec6c3a5edd417 https://chromium.googlesource.com/breakpad/breakpad)
#jira UE-55442
Change 3904648 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Remove files from the workspace that are excluded by the sync filter.
The user's config file stores a hash of the last sync filter. During syncing, if this hash doesn not match the previous value, we enumerate all the files in the #have list and remove anything masked out by the filter.
#jira UE-47335
Change 3905442 by Steve.Robb
Change of the ConvertFromType() multi-bool return value to a more descriptive enum.
Some return values here do not make sense - this is because the existing logic is being preserved and will be fixed in a separate change.
Change 3905629 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix race condition between two child processes starting on different threads, and inheriting the other's intended stdout/stderr pipes. This prevents pipes being closed when one of the child processes shuts down, and causes waits on the read ends of those pipes to continue indefinitely.
Change 3906447 by Steve.Robb
Rename EConvertFromTypeResult enumerators.
Change 3906574 by Steve.Robb
Crash fix for container conversion failure during tagged property import.

Change 3913209 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix incorrect target name when compiling Enterprise projects.
Change 3917358 by Steve.Robb
Fix for GetLen(FString).
Change 3919610 by Ben.Marsh
Put data for CrashReportClient in a PAK file of its own (under Engine/Programs/CrashReportClient/Content/Paks/CrashReportClient.pak). There are a large number of small files required for it to run with loose files, which takes a lot of space on disk (due to cluster sizes), and is unweildy to move around.
CrashReporter UFS files are tracked in a separate dictionary to regular UFS files to allow construction of the additional PAK file.
Change 3921002 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add option for syncing all projects in a branch. Off by default. Also add support for masking in additional paths to be synced (eg. one or two extra projects).
Change 3921008 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Prevent pause waiting for mutual exclusivity when syncing precompiled binaries. We don't need to generate project files or build, so there's no need to wait in line.
Change 3921906 by Steve.Robb
New interpolation functions for quaternions.
https://udn.unrealengine.com/questions/419028/quaternion-interp-to-functions.html
Change 3921978 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Make "Loader" member of FLinkerLoad private to prevent use outside of FLinkerLoad. This archive could be something unexpected if the linker is for a text asset package, so we need to stop people accessing it.
Change 3924520 by Graeme.Thornton
UnrealPak: Improve encryption summary log messages
Change 3924522 by Graeme.Thornton
UAT: Add *Encryption.ini to the list of auto-blacklisted config filenames
Change 3924604 by Graeme.Thornton
UnrealPak: If encryption keys are parsed and fail the encrypt/decrypt test, throw a fatal error. The exectutable will have those same keys embedded so there is no point allowing the paks to be created with broken keys.
Change 3924638 by Graeme.Thornton
Crypto: Improvements to parsing of old fashioned encryption.ini settings:
- AES keys that are too long or short (need to be 32 bytes) will now emit a warning when being parsed, and be truncated or expanded before adding to the crypto settings.
- Signing keys will emit an error when they are too long (>64bytes)
- Unrealpak will still assert when invalid settings are passed via the other mechanisms (command line or -encryptionini mode). Settings via the crypto json file should now be sanitized and not cause issues
#jira UE-55080

Change 3926917 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Allow overriding the name of the UE4 solution on a branch-specific basis. Useful for switching between multiple UE4 workspaces. Also add support to the editor and UGS for opening the correct solution (determined via a text file saved to Engine/Intermediate/ProjectFiles).
Set the solution name using an entry in BuildConfiguration.xml as follows:
<ProjectFileGenerator>
<MasterProjectName>UE4_Main</MasterProjectName>
</ProjectFileGenerator>
Change 3927683 by Graeme.Thornton
UAT: When building with chunk installs enabled, don't generate the master manifest from each pak creation thread. Just do it once after all pak files have been created. Avoids intermittent crash with multiple threads trying to write the same json file.
Change 3928111 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add an option <bMasterProjectNameFromFolder> which allows setting the solution name based on the folder that it's in.
Change 3928926 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add support for enumerating content copied by the <CsCompile> task. Also add support for invoking methods on string properties.

TBA: When loading assets, only use structured archive adapters for exports when loading text files.
Change 3936040 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Rewrite application lifecycle to fix issues with scheduled syncs on background windows not activating, and window jumping to the front after auto-update.
Now uses a custom application context to allow creating separate 'main' windows (first the "opening projects" form, then the regular form), and does not require any forms to be shown in order to be updating in the background.

UAT: CryptoKeys automation script
Change 3940321 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add a "Bisect" mode for regressing bugs between a certain range of changes. To use, select a range of changes by holding down the shift key or individual changes by holidng the control key, then right click and select "Bisect these changes". Individual changes in the list can be marked as "Bisect: Pass" or "Bisect: Fail" from the context menu, and syncing will find the next change in the center of the range.
Change 3940538 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Always determine whether a project is a foreign project or not from the valid .uprojectdirs entries, rather than relying on the user passing -game on the command line.

#jira none
Change 3942404 by Graeme.Thornton
Pak Signing:
- Unify naming of pak precacher and signedarchivereader signature check functions to make it easier to search for them in crash reporter
- Format the signedarchivereader output to match the pak precacher
- When signedarchivereader detects a signature check, do the same master signature hash check that the pak precacher does to confirm that the .sig file contents haven't been corrupted since load.
- Add PAK_SIGNATURE_CHECK_FAILS_ARE_FATAL guarded exit to signedarchivereader signature failure
- Optimization for pakprecacher signature checks. Instead of locking the cached files mutex for every decoded signature, take a local copy in blocks of 16. Only re-lock if we need more. Grab the initial batch when setting up. In most cases, reduces the number of locks to 1 per signature check call.
Change 3942825 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Allow passing -Project<N>=Foo.uproject arguments to the MegaXGE commandlet (eg. -Target1="ShooterGame Win64 Development" -Project1="D:\ShooterGame\ShooterGame.uproject") so it can be used from an installed engine build.
Change 3942839 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Explicitly query the number of logical processors in the system, to fix Environment.ProcessorCount just returning the number available to the .NET framework. For machines with > 64 cores, processors in a different processor group will not be included in this number.

PR #4558: Changed incorrect obsolete message for ReceiptPropertyList in Modules.cs (Contributed by ryanjon2040)
Change 3947359 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Fixes to loading code to allow bulk data to get a pointer from its loader archive to an archive that it can load from at a later date. For binary archives, this is just a pointer back to the same archive, but for text assets it is a pointer to a "child reader" which maintains its own structured archive that is scoped to the current location in the file.
Change 3947360 by Graeme.Thornton
TBA: Added RoundTrip mode to text asset commandlet. Performs determinism tests in project assets to see whether they save deterministically to binary and text files, and also when they are ping-ponged between the two formats.

BuildGraph: Add support for user-defined macros, which can contain a list of buildgraph commands and be expanded within a node. Example script in Engine/Build/Graph/Examples/Macros.xml.
To define a Macro, use the syntax:
<Macro Name="MyTestMacro" Arguments="PrintFirstMessage;PrintSecondMessage" OptionalArguments="PrintThirdMessage">
<Log Message="First message" If="$(PrintFirstMessage)"/>
<Log Message="Second message" If="$(PrintSecondMessage)"/>
<Log Message="Third message" If="'$(PrintThirdMessage)' == 'true'"/>
</Macro>
To expand a macro, use the syntax:
<Expand Name="MyTestMacro" PrintFirstMessage="true" PrintSecondMessage="true"/>
An error will be thrown if any required arguments are missing. Optional arguments default to empty if not specified.
Tasks within a macro are validated by the schema at the point of definition using the same rules as apply to a <Node> element, but properties are not evaluated until the macro is expanded. This allows macros to get and set properties in scope at the point that it is expanded. Local properties that are introduced within a macro do not otherwise leak to the scope that they are expanded.

TBA: Text asset loading/saving work
- Start using FStructuredArchive flavours of UObject Serialize functions when loading and saving exports.
- Only use FStructuredArchive interface for text assets, and for classes that have the CLASS_MatchingSerializers which tells us that the class can serialize to both FStructuredArchives and FArchives.
- Add GetCacheableArchive to FArchive, which allows transient archives to return a pointer to another archive that will outlive it. Used by bulk data to get a pointer to an archive that can be held and used at a later time to lazy load things. For text assets where the bulk data might be held inside a base64 encoded FArchiveFromStructuredArchive block, we can't dynamically seek back to that location after the on-stack wrapper has been destroyed after the original serialize, so this will return null. For binary assets, we just return a pointer to the same binary archive which can be used freely.

UGS: Fix child processes being unable to spawn other child processes with the CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB flag, to add them to their own job objects.
In Windows 7 or earlier job objects cannot be nested, so child processes have to create separate job objects and spawn processes with CREATE_BREAKAWAY_FROM_JOB to be able to add them. This fails unless parent process' job object was created with JOB_OBJECT_LIMIT_BREAKAWAY_OK.

* Wrapped export loading in a ArchiveUObjectFromStructuredArchive
* Updated TextAssetCommandlet to have a "loadtext" mode which will try to load every text asset in the project content
* Changed text asset extensions to .utextasset and .utextmap. Couldn't go with the favourite .uasset.json because our various path functions (FPaths::GetCleanFilename etc.) will only strip one layer of extension, so leave a bogus filename.
* Relaxed a few checks in structured archive where it was checking for field reentrance, which isn't a problem for loading.
* Changed FArchiveFromStructuredArchive to not load all referenced objects at construction time. This introduced some changes to load order which don't work in the engine. Object names are resolved at the point that a reference to them is serialized from the main data block, same as with legacy archives.

Disable warning C4770 on Windows (partially validated enum 'xxx' used as index), which occurs when enabling LTCG. Can't find a reference online for this warning, but I suspect it's due to LTCG allowing the compiler to trace code paths where we don't validate that an enum is a known value.

* The IsPromotedBuild value is now set to zero by default (but set to 1 by the UpdateLocalVersion UAT command).
* The -Licensee argument to the UpdateLocalVersion UAT command, and the IsLicenseeVersion setting for UnrealGameSync, is determined automatically by looking for the Engine/Build/NotForLicensees/EpicInternal.txt file. This path is not visible to licensees.

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 3121996 on 2016/09/12 by Ben.Marsh
Add support for Visual Studio 2017 (aka "15"; assuming consistent naming with other versions until final name is announced).
* Compiler, STL implementation and CRT are binary compatible with VS2015 (see https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/vcblog/2016/08/24/c1417-features-and-stl-fixes-in-vs-15-preview-4/), so no new third-party libraries needed so far. WindowsPlatform.GetVisualStudioCompilerVersionName() returns "2015" as a result.
* Default compiler for compiling and generating project files is still VS 2015 for now. Pass -2017 on the command line to GenerateProjectFiles.bat to generate VS2017 projects. Projects generated for VS2017 will use the 2017 compiler by default.
* Visual Studio source code accessor can talk to VS 2017 instances.
* Added a VS2017 configuration for UnrealVS, and added precompiled vsix package.
* Switched GetVSComnTools to check the SOFTWARE\Microsoft\VisualStudio\SxS\VS7 registry key rather than the individual product install registry key. "15" doesn't seem to have it's own "InstallDir" key, but this system seems to work for all versions of Visual Studio (including previous releases of VS Express).
* Removed ATL dependency from VisualStudioSourceCodeAccessor. It's not installed with VS by default any more, and is only used for a couple of smart pointer classes.
Tested running the editor and packaging TP_Flying for Win64. Packaging from the editor still defaults to using the 2015 compiler, so ConfigureToolchain() needs to be overriden from the .target.cs file if multiple Visual Studio versions are installed.

Change 3211656 on 2016/11/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move ModuleRules and TargetRules into their own file.
Change 3211797 on 2016/11/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove utility functions from TargetRules for checking different classes of target types. Moving TargetRules to be data-only.
Change 3211833 on 2016/11/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove overridable configuration name from target rules. This feature is not used anywhere.
Change 3211859 on 2016/11/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate the GetGeneratedCodeVersion() callback in favor of a member variable instead.
Change 3211942 on 2016/11/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove legacy code which tries to change the output paths for console binaries. Output paths for monolithic binaries are always in the project folder now.
Change 3215333 on 2016/11/30 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Replace the GetSupportedPlatforms() callback on TargetRules with a SupportedPlatforms attribute. Since a TargetRules object can only be instantiated with an actual platform, it doesn't make sense for it to be an instance method.
Change 3215482 on 2016/11/30 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the GetSupportedConfigurations() callback on the TargetRules class. A configuration is required to construct a TargetRules instance, so it doesn't make sense to need to call an instance method to find out which configurations are supported.
Change 3215743 on 2016/11/30 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate the TargetRules.ShouldCompileMonolithic() function: this function requires access to the global command line to operate correctly, which prevents creating target-specific instances, and does not use the platform/configuration passed into the TargetRules constructor.
Rather than being a callback, the LinkType field can now be set to TargetLinkType.Modular or TargetLinkType.Monolithic from the constructor as appropriate. The default value (TargetLinkType.Default) results in the default link type for the target type being used. Parsing of the command-line overrides is now done when building the TargetDescriptor.
Change 3215778 on 2016/11/30 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Mark overrides of the TargetRules.GetModulesToPrecompile method as obsolete.
Change 3217681 on 2016/12/01 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Prevent UE4Build deleting .modules files when running with the -Clean argument; these files are artifacts generated by UBT itself, not by the exported XGE script.
Change 3217723 on 2016/12/01 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Run pre- and post-build steps for all plugins that are being built, not just those that are enabled.
Change 3217930 on 2016/12/01 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Add a perforce settings window, allowing users to set optional values for tuning Perforce performance on unreliable connections.
Change 3218762 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
Enable warnings whenever an undefined macro is used in a constant expression inside an #if or #elif directive, and fix existing violations.
Change 3219161 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
Core: Use the directory containing the current module to derive the UE4 base directory, rather than the executable directory. Allows UE4 to be hosted by a process in a different directory.
Change 3219197 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
Core: When loading a DLL from disk, convert any relative paths to absolute before calling LoadLibrary. The OS resolves these paths relative to the directory containing the process executable -- not the working directory -- so paths need to be absolute to allow UE4 to be hosted by a process elsewhere.
Change 3219209 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
Replace some calls to LoadLibrary() with FPlatformProcess::GetDllHandle(). The UE4 function makes sure that relative paths are resolved relative to the correct base directory, which is important when the host executable is not in Engine/Binaries/Win64.
Change 3219610 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
Add the -q (quiet) option to the Mac unzip command, since it's creating too much log output to be useful.
Change 3219731 on 2016/12/02 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add option to disable IWYU checks regarding the use of monolithic headers (Engine.h, UnrealEd.h, etc...) and including the matching header for a cpp file first. bEnforceIWYU can be set to false in UEBuildConfiguration or on a per-module basis in the module rules.
Change 3220796 on 2016/12/04 by Ben.Marsh
Remove PrepForUATPackageOrDeploy from the UEBuildDeploy base class. It never has to be accessed through the base class anyway.
Change 3220825 on 2016/12/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Change all executors to derive from a common base class (ActionExecutor).
Change 3220834 on 2016/12/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the global CommandLineContains() function.
Change 3222706 on 2016/12/05 by Ben.Marsh
Merging CL 3221949 from //UE4/Release-4.14: Fixes to code analysis template causing problems with stock install of VS2017.
Change 3222712 on 2016/12/05 by Ben.Marsh
Merging CL 3222021 from //UE4/Release-4.14: Change detection of MSBuild.exe path to match GetMSBuildPath.bat
Change 3223628 on 2016/12/06 by Ben.Marsh
Merging CL 3223369 from 4.14 branch: Use the same logic as GetMsBuildPath.bat inside FDesktopPlatformBase to determine path to MSBuild.exe
Change 3223817 on 2016/12/06 by Ben.Marsh
Remove non-ANSI characters from source files. Compiler/P4 support is patchy for this, and we want to avoid failing prey to different codepages resulting in different interpretations of the source text.
Change 3224046 on 2016/12/06 by Ben.Marsh
Remove the need for the iOS/TVOS deployment instances to have an IOSPlatformContext instance. The only dependency between the two -- a call to GetRequiredCapabilities() -- is now implemented by querying the INI file for the supported architectures when neeeded.
Change 3224792 on 2016/12/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Touch PCH wrapper files whenever the file they include is newer rather than writing the timestamp for the included file into it as a comment. Allows use of ccache and similar tools.
Change 3225212 on 2016/12/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move settings required for deployment into the UEBuildDeployTarget class, allowing them to be serialized to and from a file the intermediate directory without having to construct a phony UEBuildTarget to deploy.
Deployment is now performed by a method on UEBuildPlatform, rather than having to create a UEBuildPlatformContext and using that to create a UEBuildDeploy object.
The -prepfordeploy UBT invocation from UAT, previously done by the per-platform PostBuildTarget() callback when building with XGE, is replaced by running UBT with a path to the serialized UEBuildDeployTarget object, and can be done in a platform agnostic manner.
Change 3226310 on 2016/12/07 by Ben.Marsh
PR #3015: Fixes wrong VSC++ flags being passed for .c files (Contributed by badlogic)
Change 3228273 on 2016/12/08 by Ben.Marsh
Update copyright notices for QAGame.
Change 3229166 on 2016/12/09 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Rewritten config file parser. No longer requires hard-coded list of sections to be parsed, but parses them on demand. Measured 2x faster read speeds (largely due to eliminating construction of temporary string objects when parsing each line, to trim whitespace and so on). Also includes an attribute-driven parser, which allows reading named config values for marked up fields in an object.
Change 3230601 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
Swarm: Change Swarm AgentInterface to target .NET framework 4.5, to remove dependency on having 4.0 framework installed.
Change 3230737 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Stop UE4Build deriving from CommandUtils. Confusing pattern, and causes problems trying to access instance variables that are only set for build commands.
Change 3230751 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Move ParseParam*() functions which use the instanced parameter list from CommandUtils to BuildCommand, since that's the only thing that it's instanced for.
Change 3230804 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add the IsPromotedBuild flag to Build.version, and only set the bFormalBuild flag in UBT if it's set. This allows UGS users to avoid having to compile separate RC files for each output binary.
Change 3230831 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Warn when trying to switch streams if files are checked out.
Change 3231281 on 2016/12/12 by Chad.Garyet
Fixing a bug where .modules files were getting put into receipts with their absolute path instead of their relative one
Change 3231496 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
Disable code analysis in CrashReportProcess; causes warnings when compiled with VS2015.
Change 3231979 on 2016/12/12 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Suppress LNK4221 when generating import libraries. This can happen often when generating import libraries separately to linking.
Change 3232619 on 2016/12/13 by Ben.Marsh
Fix "#pragma once in main file" errors on Mac, which are occurring in //UE4/Main.
