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 3011102 on 2016/06/13 by Steve.Cano
After taking a screenshot using glReadPixels, transfer the data to the target buffer from bottom row up to fix the "upside-down" render that OpenGL does. Confirmed with QA (owen.stupka_volt) that this does not appear to be happening on iOS (non-metal devices, inclusion of iOS in write-up was a mistake), verified on an ipod touch 5. Also confirmed that this does not happen on html5, and that Mobile HDR flag does not make a difference in function.

Change 3051574 on 2016/07/15 by Jack.Porter
Support for lighting channels on Mobile
- Multiple directional lights are supported in different channels but primitives are only affected by the directional light in the first channel they have set
- CSM shadows from stationary or movable directional lights correctly follow their lighting channels
- No channel limitations for dynamic point lights
Notes:
Removed mobile-specific directional light shadowing fields from View uniform buffer and mobile no longers uses SimpleDirectionalLight.
Separate uniform buffers for mobile directional light are generated for each lighting channel.
CSM culling information is now stored in FViewInfo and not per FVisibleLightViewInfo as the visibility bits are per view.
