"Crash occurs when scrolling down through files in Review Changelist window upon loading of asset"
- certain widget blueprints were crashing the review tool because we were working around the inability to diff against nullptr by constructing temprorary empty objects. This approach circumvents that problem entirely
#jira UE-173231
"Changelist Review tool allows diffing against previous revision for Deletion changes"
- while this jira suggests that the ability to diff deletion changes is a bug, it was actually an intended feature. The real bug was that it would crash or fail to work in many cases. This has been fixed by either asset diffing against nullptr or text diffing against an empty file (depending on circumstance)
#jira UE-174610
"Reviewing Changelist with Deletion Changes results in LogLinker warnings & LoadErrors"
- deletion changes were trying to load the new revision of files but obviously it doesn't exist because it's a deletion. Fixed by only loading the previous revision
note: since the review tool is going to be "Production Ready" in 5.2, these changes are neccesary for stability
[CL 23924072 by jordan hoffmann in ue5-main branch]
This change consists of multiple changes:
Core:
- Deprecation of ANY_PACKAGE macro. Added ANY_PACKAGE_DEPRECATED macro which can still be used for backwards compatibility purposes (only used in CoreUObject)
- Deprecation of StaticFindObjectFast* functions that take bAnyPackage parameter
- Added UStruct::GetStructPathName function that returns FTopLevelAssetPath representing the path name (package + object FName, super quick compared to UObject::GetPathName) + wrapper UClass::GetClassPathName to make it look better when used with UClasses
- Added (Static)FindFirstObject* functions that find a first object given its Name (no Outer). These functions are used in places I consider valid to do global UObject (UClass) lookups like parsing command line parameters / checking for unique object names
- Added static UClass::TryFindType function which serves a similar purpose as FindFirstObject however it's going to throw a warning (with a callstack / maybe ensure in the future?) if short class name is provided. This function is used in places that used to use short class names but now should have been converted to use path names to catch any potential regressions and or edge cases I missed.
- Added static UClass::TryConvertShortNameToPathName utility function
- Added static UClass::TryFixShortClassNameExportPath utility function
- Object text export paths will now also include class path (Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass' -> /Script/Engine.Texture2D'/Game/Textures/Grass.Grass')
- All places that manually generated object export paths for objects will now use FObjectPropertyBase::GetExportPath
- Added a new startup test that checks for short type names in UClass/FProperty MetaData values
AssetRegistry:
- Deprecated any member variables (FAssetData / FARFilter) or functions that use FNames to represent class names and replaced them with FTopLevelAssetPath
- Added new member variables and new function overloads that use FTopLevelAssetPath to represent class names
- This also applies to a few other modules' APIs to match AssetRegistry changes
Everything else:
- Updated code that used ANY_PACKAGE (depending on the use case) to use FindObject(nullptr, PathToObject), UClass::TryFindType (used when path name is expected, warns if it's a short name) or FindFirstObject (usually for finding types based on user input but there's been a few legitimate use cases not related to user input)
- Updated code that used AssetRegistry API to use FTopLevelAssetPaths and USomeClass::StaticClass()->GetClassPathName() instead of GetFName()
- Updated meta data and hardcoded FindObject(ANY_PACKAGE, "EEnumNameOrClassName") calls to use path names

Interim BlueprintGeneratedClass::IsAsset change:
All code that is enumerating unfiltered assets in a package/outer needs to handle multiple assets, or if it can't, needs to call ShouldSkipAsset or IsUAsset to skip over the non-UAsset assets.
Move UE::AssetRegistry::FFiltering into CoreUObject to make it accessible to FindAssetInPackage.
