Change 3231470 on 2016/12/12 by Matt.Kuhlenschmidt
Eliminate editor sounds that play when you PIE, simulate or possess the player. They get in the way of game sounds, are annoying to hear when you are constantly starting and stopping pie, and flush async loading that the game might be doing when they load.

Navigation - Making it so we don't attempt to load HotReload during shutdown, we only access it if it's still loaded.
Change 3244549 on 2017/01/02 by Nick.Darnell
Slate - Implementing custom hardware cursor loading across Windows, Mac and Linux and supports loading cursors from PAK files. All platforms support loading PNGs through the FHardwareCursor interface. Some platforms support additional formats, for multiresolution support, but there's a naming convention that can be used on PNGs for the same capability. All of it is documented in the FHardwareCursor header. The platform layer for ICursor, now has support for replacing cursor shapes as an override, and can be reset safely.
The FHardwareCursor supports loading cursors from raw pixel buffers as well, the plan is to allow for the option to UTextures to also be used for hardware cursors.
Now users through C++ can load and replace the hardware cursors with custom ones of their own,
e.g. FSlateApplication::Get().RegisterCursor(EMouseCursor::Default, MakeShareable(new FHardwareCursor(FPaths::GameContentDir() / "Slate/FancyPointer", FIntPoint(0,0))));
The next step is to expose a game friendly layer that supports caching cursors, and letting users change them out by name, without a bunch of destruction of OS resources.

#jira UE-39793 - Fixes an issue with the AutoReimporter where specifying a non-existent mount point (a directory in the content browser) would cause a crash when attempting to auto-import an asset from a monitored directory, as well as ensuring that valid mount points will be able to create new assets from auto-import.
The "Map Directory To" field when setting directories to monitor for auto-reimport has also been changed to use the content browser path picker instead of relying on the user to manually enter a mount point.

IncludeTool can now parse typedef in Fwd headers
Change 3256758 on 2017/01/13 by Jamie.Dale
Added support for String Tables
String Tables provide a way to centralize your localized text into one (or several) known locations, and then reference the entries within a string table from other assets or code in a robust way that allows for easy re-use of localized text.
String Tables can be defined in C++ (using the LOCTABLE family of macros), loaded via CSV file, or created as an asset. They can be referenced in C++ using either the LOCTABLE macro, or the static FText::FromStringTable function. INI files can reference them using the LOCTABLE macro syntax, and FText properties in assets can reference them via the advanced settings combo.

Slate - Pixel Snapping has been moved to the GPU for the RHI rendering policy. Additionally, widgets with a render transform of Scale, Rotation or Sheer, and their children are no longer pixel snapped, this should reduce some of jittering seen by users when animations are applied to widgets. NOTE: This only affects render transforms, any transform in layout space is still subject to pixel snapping.

#jira UE-41182
Change 3277409 on 2017/01/30 by Jamie.Dale
Improved text rendering when the last resort font is missing
The last resort font is no longer included in shipping builds, so this change makes some improvements to text rendering when it's missing.
- The legacy font cache no longer tries to use the last resort font if it's not available (preventing warnings).
- The Slate font renderer no longer tries to use the last resort font if it's not available.
- Text shaping will use the last resort character if none of the available fonts can render a given character (likely because the last resort font is missing).
- HarfBuzz shaped text now uses the fallback character correctly.
Change 3277749 on 2017/01/30 by Nick.Darnell
Slate - Moving ESlateDrawEffect & ESlateBatchDrawFlag over to be enum class, found cases where users were improperly assuming the enum order, and so now it won't be possible to just treat an int32 or a bool as the draw effect value.
Core - Adding EnumHasAllFlags and EnumHasAnyFlags, templated functions to make it easier to check for the existance of a flag on enum classes.
Change 3277805 on 2017/01/30 by Nick.Darnell
Rendering - Changing some LoadModuleChecked calls to GetModuleChecked, as these calls are not happening on the main thread and are not safe to make.

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 3233612 on 2016/12/13 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Fix cases where precompiled binaries are submitted for a content change.
Change 3235584 on 2016/12/14 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate the overridable TargetRules.ShouldUseSharedBuildEnvironment() function; targets should specify which build environment to use by setting the BuildEnvironment field in their constructor instead.
Change 3235741 on 2016/12/14 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate the SetupBinaries() callback on the TargetRules class. Instead of overriding this, targets may override their launch module through the "LaunchModuleName" property in their constructor, and add extra modules to the "ExtraModuleNames" field on the TargetRules object itself.
Change 3238176 on 2016/12/16 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: New XML config file parser. Now reads once at startup and can be applied to instanced objects rather than global fields, and caches parsed output in a binary form for quicker initialization on subsequent runs.
Change 3238249 on 2016/12/16 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add attribute-driven command line parser.
Change 3238462 on 2016/12/16 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Include the Platform, Configuration and Architecture on the TargetRules. Add a constructor which takes the TargetInfo object and deprecate the parameterless one; these fields are currently initialized before invoking the constructor in RulesAssembly.
Change 3238564 on 2016/12/16 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Deprecate the ModuleRules constructor which takes a TargetInfo argument. Replace it with a read-only wrapper around the target rules instead, so target-specific configuration options can be read without needing to access global static variables. Also require that it's passed to the base class constructor.
Change 3239919 on 2016/12/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the "PreferredSubPlatform" property. This is only used for Windows XP support, which is being retired anyway. Having the target define its own architecture is an awkward contractiction to maintain support for, since the target rules are constructed after the architecture already has been determined.
Change 3240061 on 2016/12/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove ThirdPartyHeaderFinder. I don't think anything is using this any more.
Change 3240175 on 2016/12/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add the target name and project file location to the target rules.
Change 3240490 on 2016/12/19 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Remove Mac staging code that requires UAT to compile and construct .target.cs files when packaging, to check bUseSteam and bUseCEF3 flags. libsteam_api.dylib is now staged at build time by adding it as a bundle resource, CEF3 is already marked as a runtime dependency by CEF3.build.cs, and UnrealCEFSubProcess.app is already marked as a runtime dependency from WebBrowser.build.cs.
Change 3240717 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Allow configuring UAT to run as if on a build machine by passing the -buildmachine argument on the command line.
Change 3240718 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Remove target-specific properties that are no longer used by staging (bUsesSlate, bUsesCEF3, etc...). This stuff should all be handled inside UBT.
Change 3241002 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move most target configuration settings from UEBuildConfiguration to TargetRules. This encapsulates target specific settings that will allow instancing multiple targets in the future. To facilitate migration of settings to their new location, "UEBuildConfiguration" is now a property that returns the current target rules instance.
Change 3241027 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
Only copy the Steamworks dylib into the app bundle for monolithic builds. For all other times, just add it as a runtime dependency.
Change 3241055 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Only store a ReadOnlyTargetRules object on the instanced build target; finalize the configuration before it's instantiated.
Change 3241156 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
Update SwarmInterface.csproj to .NET framework 4.5, to match what all other C# tools are using.
Change 3241205 on 2016/12/20 by Ben.Marsh
Replace all uses of TargetRules.TargetType with TargetType.
Change 3241881 on 2016/12/21 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove project file information from UEBuildContext base class. As configurable properties are moved on to the TargetRules object, it will no longer be a dependency to instantiate the platform with this path.
Change 3241895 on 2016/12/21 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove toolchain support for Windows XP.
Change 3241908 on 2016/12/21 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move settings for windows targets into a WindowsTargetRules class, which is exposed for targets to modify via the TargetRules.WindowsPlatform field.
Change 3242835 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix multiple binaries being created if plugins specify module names more than once. MfMedia.uplugin has MfMediaFactory listed twice.
Change 3242837 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
Change UE4EditorServices to include MacSystemIncludes rather than Cocoa.h directly; causes FVector to be defined incorrectly in non-unity builds.
Change 3242923 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
Build: Fixes for conforming incremental workspaces:
* P4 have table is now reset before deleting all the files. This prevents Perforce being out of sync if the delete fails for some reason.
* Incremental workspaces are skipped when running a clean operation, because they do not have a workspace capture file (causing a full re-sync, always). The "P4 Clean" option is still effective for cleaning these workspaces.
Change 3242961 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move entry points from PreBuildSync() and PostBuildSync() from UEToolChain to UEBuildPlatform, and make the original toolchain versions static. These functions are already at odds with the rest of the data flow within UBT because they rely on global state cached outside the toolchain instance, making assumptions that UBT is only ever going to be invoked with one target that's constructed in the same run and that nothing is being cached (eg. UBT makefiles). Moving them onto UEBuildPlatform simplifies the toolchain lifecycle for other platforms without leaving Mac and IOS any more limited than they were before.
Change 3242981 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove symbol server handling code into UAT's platform library, since it's never needed from inside UBT.
Change 3242999 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the StripSymbols() function from the UEToolChain base class. This functionality is only required by UAT, so it's better suited to being exposed through UAT's modular platform classes.
Change 3243022 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Require an instance of the target rules to be able to construct a toolchain in UBT. This will allow configuring toolchain-specific options from the target, using reflection from config files, and the command line.
Change 3243083 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move settings for the Windows compiler version to use onto the Windows-specific target rules.
Change 3243090 on 2016/12/22 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Change the third party paths in UEBuildConfiguration to constants. Changing these would not work.
Change 3243423 on 2016/12/23 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move a lot of settings from BuildConfiguration to TargetRules. This allows different targets to have different settings, naturally, and moves converts argument parsing and config to be driven by attributes.
Change 3243516 on 2016/12/23 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the ValidateUEBuildConfiguration callback, which is no longer used. (XGE settings validation occurs in XGE.cs)
Change 3244020 on 2016/12/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the BaseIntermediatePath static property. Precursor to removing RelativeEnginePath and IntermediateFolder properties.
Change 3244074 on 2016/12/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the RelativeEnginePath variable from BuildConfiguration. UnrealBuildTool.EngineDirectory gives the absolute path, and can be used to construct a relative path when necessary.
Change 3244076 on 2016/12/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove BuildConfiguration.BaseIntermediateFolder; just use a fixed directory everywhere instead.
Change 3244083 on 2016/12/28 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Replace FileReference and DirectoryReference instance methods for manipulating files and directories with static methods, to mirror the System.IO.File and System.IO.Directory classes.
Change 3244441 on 2016/12/31 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove code to force PDBs when building with no debug info under XGE. Verified described symptoms (that it causes PCH generation to be serialized) no longer occur.
Change 3244687 on 2017/01/03 by Matthew.Griffin
Changed Exception to use FirstInclude.IncludeName as PrecompiledHeaderIncludeFilename can be null when this occurs
Change 3246112 on 2017/01/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix UHT failures building some targets with the -useprecompiled option, due to differences in the order that circularly dependent modules are parsed. Precompiled binaries are now kept in the regular AppBinaries list, but are excluded from the build at the last minute. Also change some checks from IsEngineInstalled() to bUsePrecompiled, to prevent headers being overwritten when running in a non-installed precompiled build.
Change 3246223 on 2017/01/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Prevent version manifests being overridden if a file is not being built as part of the target.
Change 3246387 on 2017/01/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove BuildConfiguration settings for UnrealCodeAnalyzer. This tool isn't used at the moment, but it's configured using global variables accessed from all over the UBT codebase, making it difficult to refactor the build options into an instanced object. If we bring this tool back from the dead in the future, it should be possible to implement it using the exported JSON target definition or the XGE manifest, similarly to how IncludeTool uses it.
Change 3247004 on 2017/01/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Simplify the logic for cleaning targets in UBT. Now uses FileReference/DirectoryReference objects everywhere, doesn't require the compile/link environment, and does all the checking to avoid deleting precompiled binaries in one place.
Change 3247250 on 2017/01/04 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Prevent precompiled binaries being added to the list of app binaries twice.
Change 3247594 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
Build: Run sample and template editors on the same agents as the other incremental builds. Remove ProtoStar, which does not have any non-precompiled editor target to build.
Change 3247763 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Allow the toolchain to update the list of build products for each module linked into a binary. Allows Mac to add dylibs and bundle resources specified per-module without having to construct a link environment and try to link them.
Change 3247775 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Instance the target compile and link environments when they are required during building, and don't persist them on the UEBuildTarget instance.
Change 3247811 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Add a batch file for testing postp filters.
Change 3247839 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Include the name of the file being compiled when parsing MSVC errors and warnings.
Change 3248101 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix Android support for force included headers.
Change 3248533 on 2017/01/05 by Ben.Marsh
PR #3097: UBT project supports optional platforms (Contributed by PrimalJohnScott)
Change 3249205 on 2017/01/06 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Fix ParseTaggedP4Output throwing an exception if the same key name is specified more than once. This can happen when parsing the output from "P4 INFO", where multiple brokers are present.
Change 3249249 on 2017/01/06 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Check for the existance of AndroidManifest.xml within extracted AAR directories, rather than just checking for the existance of the directory itself. Perforce does not remove empty directories when cleaning a workspace unless the rmdir option is on the workspace, so this can cause incremental build failures to fail on build machines.
Change 3249486 on 2017/01/06 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Use relative paths in unity files when compiling for Mac/IOS, rather than generating a separate local/remote version of the file for gathering include dependencies. Absolute paths are only used to work around the way that MSVC concatenates paths internally; we don't hit the same problems when checking dependencies.
Change 3249736 on 2017/01/06 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Rename CPPEnvironment to CppCompileEnvironment, and remove the separate CPPEnvironmentConfiguration object. All settings are now stored directly on the CppCompileEnvironment object.
Change 3250179 on 2017/01/07 by Ben.Marsh
Fix creating installed build when root directory contains a space in the name.
Change 3250181 on 2017/01/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove some esoteric (and unused, AFAIK) options for orthogonally building different platforms.
Change 3250223 on 2017/01/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Merge the LinkEnvironment and LinkEnvironmentConfiguration classes together.
Change 3250233 on 2017/01/07 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Allow specifying a workspace-specific sync filter, which is applied on top of the standard filter. Also fix filter being cleared if the cancel button is pressed, and help text being stripped out.
Change 3250241 on 2017/01/07 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move the options for specifying additional Android architectures to target onto an Android-specific object on the TargetRules.
Change 3250400 on 2017/01/08 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Move executor config settings onto the executor instances.
Change 3257708 on 2017/01/13 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Remove the ThirdPartySourceDirectory constant; there are many places which hard-code or assume this location anyway, and it's not going to change.
Change 3260535 on 2017/01/17 by Ben.Marsh
Add an optional "RequiredSubmittedChange" setting to EC settings files. Allows a scheduled job to run even if there have been no code changes submitted. Test with the utilization capture job.
Change 3260875 on 2017/01/17 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Fix workspaces getting out of sync wrt. newly added files when jobs are aborted during a sync. In such cases, the P4 have table indicates the new files have been synced locally, but the workspace is forced back to a state before it had them due to the capture file. When a following sync tries to add them again, P4 believes the workspace already has them synced.
To work around this, we now write an additional file to the root folder of a workspace containing the last CL that was captured, and sync back to it before doing the reconcile.
Change 3261724 on 2017/01/18 by Ben.Marsh
Allow filtering job types from the list view in EC. Hide the utilization capture job by default. Also set up notifications for the utilization capture job.
Change 3261756 on 2017/01/18 by Ben.Marsh
IncludeTool: Prevent matching a full enum declaration as a forward declaration.
Change 3261932 on 2017/01/18 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Add support for specifying days of the week in schedules. The following syntaxes are supported:
"Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday at 10:30"
"Daily except Sunday and Wednesday at 14:30"
Also tweak display of dates relative to now to handle dates/times in the future, and include the date when specifying a day name.
#jira UEB-729
Change 3262676 on 2017/01/18 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Split UBTMakefile into its own file. (From PR #3106)
Change 3263893 on 2017/01/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Stop exporting platform classes from UBT, as well as all the referenced classes that have to be made public as a result. Any platform-specific functionality that needs to be shared with UAT is now exposed through wrappers in separate public classes, eg. WindowsExports.cs, IOSExports.cs, etc...
Change 3264291 on 2017/01/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix errors generating documentation in UBT, and enable it by default. Will catch more errors with new code being added. Originally in PR #3106, but redone due to conflicts.
Change 3264534 on 2017/01/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Include plugin config files in generated projects.
Change 3264571 on 2017/01/19 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Prevent overwriting .modules files if nothing has changed. On builders, it's common to build multiple editors in the same workspace, and changing the last modified timestamp causes BuildGraph to fail due to tampered files.
Change 3265745 on 2017/01/20 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Automatically open UGS when running the launcher for a second time, rather than prompting to close the original instance.
Change 3265777 on 2017/01/20 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Automatically close and reopen when UGS is re-ran with the shift key held down to switch into unstable mode.
Change 3268314 on 2017/01/23 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Make sure version manifests are stable by sorting the list of build products, so they are only touched if the contents have really changed.
Change 3269601 on 2017/01/24 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix symbol files being added to manifest for some platforms even though debug info is disabled.
Change 3269607 on 2017/01/24 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix bug where UBT would need to be invoked when switching between two editors sharing the same engine binaries on Mac. The location of the .modules file cannot be guessed on Mac by looking in the same directory as the primary output executable because it's an .app bundle, and the actual modules are nested several directories below that.
Change 3269608 on 2017/01/24 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix additional files copied into the app bundle always being updated on Mac. Now uses rsync --checksum to make sure only modified files are updated.
Change 3271062 on 2017/01/24 by Ben.Marsh

Change 3272935 on 2017/01/25 by Ben.Marsh
Fix Metal errors launching on Mac due to use of OSX environment settings before they are initialized. Toolchain settings are now constructed on demand in a separate class, for Mac, iOS and TVOS.
Change 3274167 on 2017/01/26 by Ben.Marsh
Fix resource files not being compiled in installed builds on Windows. Was causing metadata not to be embedded into executables.
#jira UE-36457
Change 3275557 on 2017/01/27 by Ben.Marsh
Expand checks for propagation of restricted folder names to include source files, and to ensure that each restricted folder is represented in the output. Also improve messaging to show the dependency chain leading to a restricted folder being referenced, and which folder it is.
Change 3275628 on 2017/01/27 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Splitting configuration files into one class per-file.
Change 3276784 on 2017/01/29 by Ben.Marsh
Add an authoritative list of confidential folder names, and expose it through global BuildGraph properties ($(RestrictedFolderNames) and $(RestrictedFolderFilter)). Also switch existing scripts to use it.
Change 3276792 on 2017/01/29 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Use UE4CSharp.prog files to indicate which projects should be included in the solution without having to hard-code a list of them in UBT.
Change 3277263 on 2017/01/30 by Ben.Marsh
IncludeTool: Merging various fixes.
* Fix warnings about #include directives after first code block from parsing monolithic headers.
* Fix exception on startup if the intermediate directory does not already exist.
* Add a special case for ignoring missing header guards from MonolithicHeaderBoilerplate.h, rather than marking it as an inline header. Marking it as inline prevents parsing include directives, which results in including CoreTypes.h from the wrong location.
* Create job objects for spawned compiler instances to prevent them trying allocating more memory than the system can spare.
* Remove (unused) code which makes assumptions about files ending with "Classes.h".
* Add a verbose per-file output log to aid with debugging.
* Negate the MakeStandalone command line option, which was added to allow tweaking forward declarations in already optimized files, so the optimized output does not have missing headers by default.
* Fix missing headers when creating standalone files, due to incorrect list of previous files being passed in to the OutputFile constructor. Now passes the original list of included files, not the output list.
* Fix initial header for a cpp file sometimes being removed. Forcibly including a header at the start of the file does not use the normal pathway for spidering through includes, so a second include of the same file was being generated. Any includes of that header were being forced into output, and the earlier include was then removed due to being redundant.
* Prevent forward declaring enums which have to be parsed by UHT. UHT relies on includes to determine a parse order, and will fail if the enum definition has not been parsed first.
* Use a relative path for private includes in the same module if there are any. Fixes some incorrect paths, and makes it clearer that we're doing something we shouldn't.

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.

Move method stubs for FNullSlateSoundDevice into a CPP file, since they're exported from the SlateCore module.
Change 3087341 on 2016/08/12 by Ben.Marsh
UdpMessaging: Move PCH before #if PLATFORM_DESKTOP; it will only be defined if the definition is included.
Change 3087457 on 2016/08/12 by Ben.Marsh
Core: Reorganize the FTransform and FMatrix headers: Transform.h now includes TransformNonVectorized.h or TransformVectorized.h as appropriate, and UnrealMatrix.h is now Matrix.inl (and included from Matrix.h).
Change 3088407 on 2016/08/13 by Ben.Marsh
Replace use of Windows SIZE_T define with the regular C++ size_t.
Change 3088416 on 2016/08/13 by Ben.Marsh
Include a header from all .generated.cpp files (GeneratedCppIncludes.h) which includes all the basic types required to compile them, rather than assuming that the module PCH will include everything.
Also include the real declarations of noexport classes in Object.h (now renamed to NoExportTypes.h for clarity) when the CPP macro is defined, so the .generated.deps.h file will automatically have the correct definitions for them at compile time rather than relying on them being in the private PCH.
Finally, rename UObject.h to Object.h for consistency with the naming convention for all other UObject classes. UObject.h still exists for now, but outputs a deprecated message if included.
Change 3088544 on 2016/08/14 by Ben.Marsh
Core: Move the definition of the TEXT() macro into Platform.h, to avoid having to include OS headers to get it.
Change 3088552 on 2016/08/14 by Ben.Marsh

Engine: Add a template specialization for TPointerIsConvertibleFromTo<AActor, const volatile UObject> to fix dependency on complete AActor definition for static assert in TWeakPointer<AActor>, which only appears if including Level.h without Actor.h. Delayed template instantiation usually masks this issue.

UETOOL-213 - Minimize Slate FString -> FText conversion (remove SLATE_TEXT_ATTRIBUTE)
This fixes any editor/engine specific code that was passing text to Slate as FString rather than FText.
[CL 2399803 by Jamie Dale in Main branch]
Introduces the concept of "Active Ticking" to allow Slate to go to sleep when there is no need to update the UI.
While asleep, Slate will skip the Tick & Paint pass for that frame entirely.
- There are TWO ways to "wake" Slate and cause a Tick/Paint pass:
1. Provide some sort of input (mouse movement, clicks, and key presses). Slate will always tick when the user is active.
- Therefore, if the logic in a given widget's Tick is only relevant in response to user action, there is no need to register an active tick.
2. Register an Active Tick. Currently this is an all-or-nothing situation, so if a single active tick needs to execute, all of Slate will be ticked.
- The purpose of an Active Tick is to allow a widget to "drive" Slate and guarantee a Tick/Paint pass in the absence of any user action.
- Examples include animation, async operations that update periodically, progress updates, loading bars, etc.
- An empty active tick is registered for viewports when they are real-time, so game project widgets are unaffected by this change and should continue to work as before.
- An Active Tick is registered by creating an FWidgetActiveTickDelegate and passing it to SWidget::RegisterActiveTick()
- There are THREE ways to unregister an active tick:
1. Return EActiveTickReturnType::StopTicking from the active tick function
2. Pass the FActiveTickHandle returned by RegisterActiveTick() to SWidget::UnregisterActiveTick()
3. Destroy the widget responsible for the active tick
- Sleeping is currently disabled, can be enabled with Slate.AllowSlateToSleep cvar
- There is currently a little buffer time during which Slate continues to tick following any input. Long-term, this is planned to be removed.
- The duration of the buffer can be adjusted using Slate.SleepBufferPostInput cvar (defaults to 1.0f)
- The FCurveSequence API has been updated to work with the active tick system
- Playing a curve sequence now requires that you pass the widget being animated by the sequence
- The active tick will automatically be registered on behalf of the widget and unregister when the sequence is complete
- GetLerpLooping() has been removed. Instead, pass true as the second param to Play() to indicate that the animation will loop. This causes the active tick to be registered indefinitely until paused or jumped to the start/end.
[CL 2391669 by Dan Hertzka in Main branch]
* 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.

#summary Rename Trunc, Round, Floor, Ceil to TruncToInt, RoundToInt, FloorToInt, CeilToInt. Added *ToFloat versions. Repeated for FGenericPlatformMath and all derived classes for all platforms wherever applicable. Corrected comment in Fractional and added Frac() which does HLSL-style fractional (x - floor(x)). Checked for compilation on all projects (with cooking levels wherever applicable). Didn't change Fractional to Frac, this will be done in second commit.

Other Updates:
- The WidgetReflector is now in its own module as well. It will be converted to a plug-in later.
- The Public API of both Slate and SlateCore has largely been reorganized for better discoverabilty. More cleanup work is needed.
- Added a lot of missing API documentation and fixed existing ones. More and better documentation is needed.
- Removed dead code, fixed a couple things I stubled upon, and conformed to coding guidelines (NULL vs nullptr, line breaks, etc.)
Upgrade Notes:
- The Slate Remote Server is currently disabled - will be re-enabled shortly!
- If your module previously had a module dependency to 'Slate', it now also needs a PrivateModuleDependency to 'SlateCore' in its Build.cs file.
- If your module exposes in any of its Public header files types that are now declared in SlateCore, it needs a PublicModuleDependency to 'SlateCore'
- The ToolTip property type on SWidget has changed from SToolTip to IToolTip; change local variables to TSharedPtr<IToolTip> instead of TSharedPtr<SToolTip> where needed
- IToolTip is not a widget. If you need access to the actual widget that represents the tool tip, use IToolTip::AsWidget(); If you need access to the tool tip's content, use IToolTip::GetContentWidget()
Troubleshooting:
- After syncing to this changelist you may have to clean your /Engine/Intermediate/Build/ directory and rebuild your entire project
- If in your project you are getting linker errors for unresolved types that are now declared in SlateCore, you may be missing a dependency to 'SlateCore'
- If in the Engine code you are getting linker errors for unresolved types that are now declared in SlateCore, you may need to rebuild the entire Engine
