- Added a way for UEdGraphNode_Comment to override its global editor selection state.
- Updated UControlRigGraph to use that method, rather than directly adjust GSelectedObjectAnnotation.

Change 3545456 by Ben.Zeigler
Allow PrimaryAssets to update their AssetData based on in-memory changes when launching 'Standalone Game' and 'Mobile Preview' from the editor. As it was, changes could be detected and propagated through UPrimaryDataAsset::PostLoad, but the changes would always reapply whatever already exists in the AssetRegistry. The primary use-case for this: making AssetBundle tag changes and allowing them to propagate without resaving/recooking all affected assets.

#jira UE-39303, UE-46268, UE-47519
- Nativized UDS now support external asset dependencies and will construct their own linker import tables on load.
Change summary:
- Modified FCompactBlueprintDependencyData and FFakeImportTableHelper to be more relevant to UStruct and not just UClass-derivative types.
- Modified FBlueprintDependencyData to accept a single FCompactBlueprintDependencyData struct rather than its individual fields.
- Modified FBlueprintCompilerCppBackendBase::GenerateCodeFromStruct() to emit dependency assignment and static type registration functions for nativized UStruct types.
- Modified FBlueprintNativeCodeGenModule::FStatePerPlatform to include an array for tracking UDS assets that need to be converted during the nativization pass at cook time.
- Modified FBlueprintNativeCodeGenModule::GenerateFullyConvertedClasses() to generate nativized code for UDS assets. This ensures that UDS conversion falls under the same scope as BPGC conversion, so that they both feed into the same NativizationSummary context for asset dependency tracking (i.e. since we only have a single global dependency table in the codegen). Also modified InitializeForRerunDebugOnly() to do the same.
- Modified FBlueprintNativeCodeGenModule::Convert() to defer UDS conversion so that it's done at the same time as BPGC conversion (see note above).
- Modified FEmitDefaultValueHelper::AddStaticFunctionsForDependencies() to include support for UStruct types and to conform to changes made to FCompactBlueprintDependencyData.
- Modified FEmitDefaultValueHelper::AddRegisterHelper() to include support for UStruct types.
- Modified FBlueprintNativeCodeGenModule::FindReplacedClassForObject() to ensure that converted User-Defined Enum types are switched to a UEnumProperty at package save time so that any import tables contain the proper class. This is necessary because we nativize User-Defined Enum types as 'enum class' types, and UHT will generate code for those as a UEnumProperty with an "underlying" property. However, non-nativized User-Defined Enum types are referenced as a UByteProperty with a UEnum reference, so we have to fix up all the import tables before saving. Otherwise, EDL will assert on load (see UE-47519).
Change 3553301 by Ben.Zeigler
Fix ensure when passing literal None to SoftObjectPath, it now treats them as empty instead
Change 3553631 by Dan.Oconnor
UField::Serialize no longer serialize's its next ptr, UStruct::Serialize serializes all Children properties instead. This resolves a hard circular dependency between function libraries that EDL detected. It was resolved in an ad hoc way by the old linker. This change was originally submitted in 3499927, but it was incorrectly clearing the UField::Next pointer in UField::Serialize.
#jira UE-43458
Change 3553799 by Ben.Zeigler
Fix issue where calling WaitUntilComplete on a combined handle with Stalled children wouldn't work properly. It now forces all stalled children to start immediately. I also added a warning log when this happens and an ensure if somehow the force didn't work
Copy of CL #3553781
Change 3553896 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Allow the autowiring logic to better break and replace existing connections when made (e.g., when dragging a variable onto a compatible pin with an existing connection, break the old connection to allow the new connection to be made)
#jira UE-31031
Change 3553897 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Adjust search query when doing 'Find References' on variables from My Blueprints so that bound event nodes show up for components and widgets
#jira UE-37862

Blueprints: Add the name of the variable directly in the get/set menu options (when dragging from My Blueprints into the graph)
Change 3553909 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Added the full name of the type, container type (and value type for maps) to the tooltips for the type picker elements, so long names can be read in full
#jira UE-19710

Editor: Renamed "Find in CB" command to "Browse" and renamed "Search" (in BP) to "Find", so terminology is consistent and keyboard shortcuts make sense (Ctrl+B for Browse, Ctrl+F for find, not using the term Search anywhere)
#jira UE-27121

Non editor build fix
Change 3554834 by Dan.Oconnor
Actor bound event related warnings now show up in blueprint status when opening level blueprint for first time, improved warning message. Removed unused delegate and return value from FixLevelScriptActorBindings. Can now pass raw strings to blueprint results log (no need for Printf, although padding is not great), UClasses in compiler results log will open the generated blueprint when clicked on
#jira UE-40438

Blueprints: Disallow converting a variable get node to impure/back when debugging (no graph mutating operations should be allowed)
Change 3561443 by Ben.Zeigler
Restore code to support gc.DumpPoolStats, was accidentally removed when FGCArrayPool was moved to a header.
Clean up comments around Cleanup function, the functionality to trim the memory pools was integrated into ClearWeakReferences on a prior change
Change 3561658 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Refactored 'Goto Definition' so there is no per-class logic in the Blueprint editor or schema any more; any node can opt in individually
- Added a key binding for Goto Definition (Alt+G)
- Added a key binding for Find References (Shift+Alt+F)
- Collapsed 'Goto Code Definition' for variables and functions into the same path, so there aren't separate menu items and commands
- Added new methods CanJumpToDefinition and JumpToDefinition to UEdGraphNode, the default behavior for UK2Node subclasses is to call GetJumpTargetForDoubleClick and call into FKismetEditorUtilities::BringKismetToFocusAttentionOnObject
- Going to a native function now goes thru a better code path that will actually put the source code editor on the function definition, rather than just opening the file containing the definition
Change 3562291 by Ben.Zeigler
Fix issue where calling FSoftObjectPtr::Get during a package save would result in that ptr being forever marked broken, because the ResolveObject fails during save. It's too risky to change that behavior, so change it so the TagAtLastTest doesn't get updated in that case
Change 3562292 by Ben.Zeigler
#jira UE-39042 When renaming or moving actors between levels it now attempts to fix any soft object references from blueprints or sequencer
When deleting actors that are soft referenced by actor/sequencer it will now warn the same way it does for level script. Added IAssetTools::FindSoftReferencesToObject to perform this search
Change it so saving a non-primary world does not result it being dirtied due to the temporary physics scene fixup
Fix issue where the actor name was shown incorrectly in the SSCS tree for actor instances, which meant that if you renamed it you would end up renaming it to the BP's name
Change 3564814 by Ben.Zeigler
#jira UE-47843 Don't set InputKey output pins to AnyKey if empty, this was causing blueprints with key events to constantly dirty themselves

Blueprints: Added "(selected)" after the label (in the 'debug filter' dropdown in the Blueprint editor) for actors that are selected in the level editor, which should make it easier to choose the specific actor you want to debug
#jira UE-20709
Change 3571203 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Cleanup and refactoring to prepare for turning commented out nodes into an official feature
- Made EnabledState and bUserSetEnabledState private on UEdGraphNode and added new getters/setters
- Introduced IsAutomaticallyPlacedGhostNode() and MakeAutomaticallyPlacedGhostNode() to start decoupling the concept from commented out nodes
- Updated a couple of places that used a hardcoded UberGraphPages[0] into instead editing the most recently interacted with event graph if possible
- Updated 'is data only blueprint' logic to allow multiple ubergraph pages, as long as they're all empty of non-disabled nodes
Change 3571224 by Michael.Noland

Change 3571279 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Changed UK2Node::GetPassThroughPin so that only the execution wire on nodes with exactly one input and one output exec wire will have a corresponding pass-through pin (when there is ambiguity in which exec would be used, e.g., with a branch or sequence or timeline node, the subsequent nodes are now effectively disabled as well)
Change 3571282 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Fixed the tooltip for dragging a variable onto an inherited category not showing the 'move to category' hint
Change 3571284 by Michael.Noland
Blueprints: Made wires into/out of a user-disabled node draw verly dimly (other than the passthrough exec if it exists)
Change 3571311 by Ben.Zeigler
Add ActorIteratorFlags which allows overriding which types of actors/levels are iterated by ActorIterator, to allow iterating levels that are not visible.
All of the iteration logic is now in the base and the children just set different flags, which fixes it so TActorIterator does the same level collection check as FActorIterator
Change 3571313 by Ben.Zeigler
Several fixes to automation framework to allow it to work better with Cooked builds.

#jira UE-48061 Change it so Editor builds work like cooked builds and always try to reuse existing packages when loading them instead of recreating them in place. Recreating in place does not work well for levels and blueprints, and blueprints already had a hack that was causing this behavior to not activate

#jira UE-48034 - Fix EDL assert on load caused by a native reference to a nativized BP class that also references a nativized UDS asset.
Change summary:
- Modified FNativeClassHeaderGenerator::ExportGeneratedStructBodyMacros() to emit the 'ReplaceConverted' package name for the FCompiledInDeferStruct global associated with the nativized UDS asset in the UHT codegen. This brings nativized UDS to parity with nativized BP class assets (it was likely just an oversight initially).

#jira UE-27124 Fix issue where renaming a map with legacy map build data would end up with a half-loaded redirector package, becuase the old map build data was still in use. It's possible the call to HandleLegacyMapBuildData should just be in World PostLoad instead of piecemeal in several other places but I am unsure.

Blueprints: Improve categorization and reordering support in 'My Blueprints'
- Allow drag-dropping functions, macros, delegates, etc... to reorder them within a category or to change categories (bringing them to parity with variables)
- Make category ordering on all categories sticky so you can reorder categories (the relative ordering will be the same within different sections like variables and functions)
- Added hover cues when drag dropping some items that were missing them (e.g., event dispatchers)
- Added support for renaming categories using F2
Known issues (none are regressions):
- Timelines cannot be moved to other categories or reordered
- Renaming a nested category will result in it becoming a top level category (discarding the parent category chain)
- Some actions do not support undo

#jira UE-47509 Rename and refactor internals StringAssetReferences and AssetPtrs to become SoftObjectPath/Ptr. This is to prepare them for use for subobjects like actors. Here is the rename table:
FStringAssetReference -> FSoftObjectPath
FStringClassReference -> FSoftClassPath
TAssetPtr -> TSoftObjectPtr
TAssetSubclassOf -> TSoftClassPtr
The old headers are deprecated, and FSoftClassPath is now in the same header has FSoftObjectPath.
This change increments the UE4 version because FSoftObjectPaths are now stored as a name + substring instead of one giant name, which in practice will improve performance and memory while manipulating them. Also the package table of soft referenced packages is now stored as FNames instead of FStrings as these packages names will already be in the name table due to the AssetRegistry
Remove automatic support for loading Objectpaths starting with engine-ini:, as it was only partially supported and is very outdated. ResolveIniObjectsReference can still be called manually
Changed TPersistentObjectPtr and TLazyObjectPtr to be structs instead of classes
Change UnrealHeaderTool to read configuration such as StructsWithNoPrefix out of inis instead of using a hardcoded list. Add support for TypeRedirects, which is used to make the old type names automatically remap to the new ones

#jira UE-48042 Change it so playing via PIE Standalone, multiprocess networked PIE and external cook launch on does not save temporary levels to UEDPC and instead prompts the user to save. This is how launch on works by default already, and this fixes cross level references/sequencer. The UEDPC code has been removed entirely.
As part of this change, connecting a -game client to a PIE server and vice versa is much more likely to work. You may still have game-side problems, look at UEditorEngine::NetworkRemapPath for an example of how to do the PIE prefix conversion

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.

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2937390 on 2016/04/07 by Cody.Albert
#jira UE-29211
Fixed slider to properly bubble unhandled OnKeyDown events
Change 2939672 on 2016/04/11 by Richard.TalbotWatkin
Made a change to how file check out notifications work. Now the dirty package state is processed at the end of every tick, meaning that packages which are dirtied and then cleaned again are not processed. This fixes an issue where a number of child blueprints were flagged as needing checkout when a parent blueprint was compiled. This also allows multiple packages which are dirtied at the same time to be treated as one transaction.
#jira UE-29193 - "Files need check-out" prompt spams Blueprint users
Change 2939686 on 2016/04/11 by Richard.TalbotWatkin
A number of further improvements to mesh vertex color painting:
* Lower LODs are now automatically fixed up for instances which were created in a previous bugged version of the engine.
* Since lower LODs cannot currently have their vertex colors edited, their vertex colors are always derived from LOD0.
* Fixed a bug when building lower LODs so that vertices in neighboring octree nodes are considered when looking for the nearest vertex from LOD0 which corresponds.
* Fixed issue where static meshes with imported LODs would not have the lower LODs' override colors set when "Copy instance vertex colors to source mesh" was used (static meshes with generated LODs were always getting correct override colors).
#jira UE-28563 - Incorrectly displayed LOD VertexColor until paint mode is selected
Change 2939906 on 2016/04/11 by Nick.Darnell
Automation - Adding several enhancements to the automation framework and improving the UI.
* Tests in the UI now have a link to the source and line where they orginate.
* There's now a general purpose latent lambda command you can use to run arbitrary code latently.
* Added Inlined AddCommand for regular and networked commands to the base automation class, to avoid the use of the macro, which prevents breakpoints from working in lambda code.
* Front end now has better column displays offering more room to the test name
* Changed several events to the automation controller to multicast delegates so that many could hook them.
* The UI now refreshes the selection after tests finish so that the output log updates.
Change 2939908 on 2016/04/11 by Nick.Darnell
Automation - The editor import/export tests are now a complex test and actually sperate out all the tests that can be run, some trickiness was required on the filenames so that they didn't expand into more child tests in the UI. (replacing .'s with _'s)
Change 2940028 on 2016/04/11 by Nick.Darnell
Automation - Removing the search box from the toolbar. It's now inlined above the test tree. Tweaking the padding to make it look more other windows and make everything not look so squished. Recursive expansion now works on tests.
Change 2940066 on 2016/04/11 by Nick.Darnell
Automation - Moving the filter group dropdown out of the toolbar and onto the line with the search box above the treeview - additional tweaks to it.

#jira UE-29360 - Override Colors not propagated correctly to generated lower LODs
Change 2942379 on 2016/04/13 by Richard.TalbotWatkin
Fixed issue where entering PIE while selecting an actor in Mesh Paint mode could lead to a MeshPaintStaticMeshAdapter holding onto an invalid pointer to an old mesh component, and causing a crash upon leaving the mode. This can happen because, when loading a new streaming level, the proxy actor can be selected when starting PIE, which will subsequently be added to the tool's internal lists. This needs to be added as a GC reference so that it can be NULLed when forcibly destroyed.
#jira UE-29345 - Crash occurs exiting the editor after enabling mesh paint mode and PIEing
Change 2942947 on 2016/04/13 by Richard.TalbotWatkin
Fixed crash when pasting a material function call node from one project to another in which it is not defined.

Moved FSlateIcon definition to SlateCore
It was previously declared as SLATE_API, despite its header residing inside SlateCore. Reviewed by Jamie Dale.
Change 2948805 on 2016/04/19 by Andrew.Rodham
Editor: Deprecated FName UEdGraphNode::GetPaletteIcon(FLinearColor&); in favor of FSlateIcon UEdGraphNode::GetIconAndTint(FLinearColor&); to allow for icons in external style sets to be used.
- Previously, all icons were assumed to reside within FEditorStyle, which is not the case and would create broken icons in the graph editor. All relevant code has been updated to use FSlateIcon structures instead of a simple name.
- This change required a significant overhaul to FClassIconFinder to support FSlateIcons. To keep the API clean, FSlateIconFinder now deals with FSlateIcon class icon finding operations, and FClassIconFinder for the most part just adds actor specific logic.

Engine - Rearranging the order of ELoadingPhase's enums so that they match the loading order of modules.
Change 2966113 on 2016/05/04 by Nick.Darnell
[Engine Loop Change] UEngine now defines a Start() function, that subclasses can use to start game related things after initialization of the engine. This is done so that after the Init() call on UEngine, we can then perform a module load for the ELoadingPhase::PostEngineInit phase of loading, then inform the UEngine that it's time to start the game. Therefore, UGameEngine now tells the GameInstance to Start during this phase now.
Change 2966121 on 2016/05/04 by Jamie.Dale
Config writing improvements when dealing with property values
This updates FConfigFile::ShouldExportQuotedString to make sure that a property value containing any characters that FParse::LineExtended will consume when parsing back in the config file (such as { and }, or a trailing \) cause the string to be quoted.
This also adds FConfigFile::GenerateExportedPropertyLine to generate the INI key->value lines in a consistent and correctly escaped way, and makes sure that everything that writes out lines to a config file uses it.
FConfigCacheIni::SetString and FConfigCacheIni::SetText have been updated to update the value even if it only differs by case.
UObject::SaveConfig and UObject::LoadConfig have had some code whitespace fix-up (from a bad merge).

Changes to support packaging plugins from the editor.
* UBT now has an option to explicitly disable hot-reloading in any circumstances.
* When running with -module arguments for a monolithic target, UBT will no longer try to relink the executable in source builds (so it's possible to compile plugin libs outside of an installed engine build without having already built UE4Game).
* When packaging, a temporary host project is always generated in the output directory to avoid invalidating intermediates in the source directory.
* An empty Config\FilterPlugin.ini file is written out with instructions on how to list additional files to package if it is not already present.

Change 2973846 on 2016/05/11 by Jamie.Dale
Exposed FConfigValue::ExpandValue and added FConfigValue::CollapseValue
These are both static and can be used to expand or collapse the macros used in our config files (mostly when dealing with paths), in code that has to deal with the config system, but isn't internal to the config system (mostly things that deal with default configs outside of UObjects).
The old non-static version of FConfigValue::ExpandValue is now FConfigValue::ExpandValueInternal, which just calls FConfigValue::ExpandValue on SavedValue and ExpandedValue.
This also changes some code that was using FString.Replace to use FString.ReplaceInline. This reduces allocations, and also allows us to avoid another string comparison to see whether the strings are identical (as ReplaceInline returns the number of replacements that were made).

* Moved Slate.h into SlateBasics.h and began shifting less commonly used headers into SlateExtras.h.
* Slate.h now simply includes SlateBasics.h and SlateExtras.h.
* Slate.h includes a deprecated warning now to indicate that SlateBasics.h + specific includes should be used instead.
* Moved dozens of inlined functions using Slate widgets into .cpp files to avoid header dependencies.
* All code samples now include SlateBasics.h and SlateExtras.h so future shifts will not break most those projects, but not trigger the deprecation warning of including Slate.h.
