More fixes for VSCode project generation and for UBT running on .NET Core
- Use a different file extension for rules assemblies when build on .NET Core, so they never get used by their counterparts
- UEConsoleTraceListener supports stdout/stderror constructor parameter and outputs to the appropriate channel

Change 3589919 by Robert.Manuszewski
Fixing crash when cooking textures that have already been cooked for EDL (support for cooked content in the editor)
Change 3589940 by Graeme.Thornton

Tool which takes a .map file and a .objmap file (from UBT) and creates a report which shows the size of all the symbols contributed by the source code per-folder.
Change 3596807 by Ben.Marsh
Improve Intellisense when generated headers are missing or out of date (eg. line numbers changed, etc...). These errors seem to be masked by VAX, but are present when using the default Visual Studio Intellisense.
* UCLASS macro is defined to empty when __INTELLISENSE__ is defined. Previous macro was preventing any following class declaration being parsed correctly if generated code was out of date, causing squiggles over all class methods/variables.
* Insert a semicolon after each expanded GENERATED_BODY macro, so that if it parses incorrectly, the compiler can still continue parsing the next declaration.
Change 3596957 by Steve.Robb
UBT can be used to write out an .objsrcmap file for use with the MapFileParser.
Renaming of ObjMap to ObjSrcMap in MapFileParser.

Enable intellisense generation for VS Code project files and setup include paths properly
Change 3601762 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add support for adaptive non-unity builds when working from a Git repository.
The ISourceFileWorkingSet interface is now used to query files belonging to the working set, and has separate implementations for Perforce (PerforceSourceFileWorkingSet) and Git (GitSourceFileWorkingSet). The Git implementation is used if a .git directory is found in the directory containing the Engine folder, the directory containing the project file, or the parent directory of the project file, and spawns a "git status" process in the background to determine which files are untracked or staged.
Several new settings are supported in BuildConfiguration.xml to allow modifying default behavior:
<SourceFileWorkingSet>
<Provider>Default</Provider> <!-- May be None, Default, Git or Perforce -->
<RepositoryPath></RepositoryPath> <!-- Specifies the path to the repository, relative to the directory containing the Engine folder. If not set, tries to find a .git directory in the locations listed above. -->
<GitPath>git</GitPath> <!-- Specifies the path to the Git executable. Defaults to "git", which assumes that it will be on the PATH -->
</SourceFileWorkingSet>
Change 3604032 by Graeme.Thornton

UAT: Less spammy log and error output from UAT.
* Callstacks for AutomationExceptions are suppressed by default but still included in the log (the path to the log is noted in console output with the message from the exception).
* Add a mechanism for any exceptions to be caught and rethrown with additional lines of context (CommandUtils.AddContext()) that will be appended to the error output by UAT. Avoids decaying the exception type or masking the inner exception message while still adding additional information.
* AggregateExceptions resulting from exceptions on child threads are automatically unwrapped (full details are still appended to the log)
* Name of the calling function is not included in console output by default, but still included in the log.

Change 3531377 by Ben.Marsh
Plugins: Allow plugins to specify a list of supported target platforms, which is propagated to any .uproject file that enables it.
This has several advantages over the per-module platform whitelist/blacklist:
* Platform-specific .uplugin files can now be excluded when staging other platforms. Previously, it was only possible to determine which platforms a plugin supports by reading the plugin descriptor itself. Now that information is copied into the .uproject file, so the runtime knows which plugins to ignore.
* References to dependent plugins from platform-specific plugins can now be eliminated.
* Plugins containing content can now be unambiguously disabled on a per-platform basis (having no modules for a platform does not confer that a plugin doesn't support that platform; now it is possible to specify supported platforms explicitly).
* The editor can load any plugins without having to whitelist supported editor host platforms.
UE4 targets which support loading plugins for target platforms can set TargetRules.bIncludePluginsForTargetPlatforms (true for the editor by default, false for any other target types). This defines the LOAD_PLUGINS_FOR_TARGET_PLATFORMS macro at runtime, which allows the plugin system to filter which plugins to look for at runtime.
Any .uproject file will be updated at startup to contain the list of supported platforms for each referenced plugin if necessary.

Plugins: Various fixes to settings for enabling plugins.
* Fix crash on startup when trying to disable a missing plugin (was keeping pointers to elements in the project's plugin reference array, which may be modified if a plugin is disabled).
* Revert fix to set PluginDescriptor.bRequiresBuildPlatform = true by default. This was the originally intended behavior, but it was accidentally defaulted to false during serialization unless specified in the .uplugin file. Many plugins may rely on this behavior (they may not declare asset classes otherwise, for example, which could result in loss of data), so change the default value to false instead. Also fixes popups to disable platform-specific plugins if platform SDKs are not installed.
* Fix plugins which are referenced but do not exist not showing the appropriate prompt to disable them.
Change 3540788 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add support for declaring custom pre-build steps and post-build steps from .target.cs files. Similarly to the custom build steps configurable from .uproject and .uplugin files, these specify commands which will be executed by the host platform's shell before or after a build. The following variables are expanded within the list of commands before execution: $(EngineDir), $(ProjectDir), $(TargetName), $(TargetPlatform), $(TargetConfiguration), $(TargetType), $(ProjectFile).
Example usage:
public class UnrealPakTarget : TargetRules
{
public UnrealPakTarget(TargetInfo Target) : base(Target)
{
Type = TargetType.Program;
LinkType = TargetLinkType.Monolithic;
LaunchModuleName = "UnrealPak";
if(HostPlatform == UnrealTargetPlatform.Win64)
{
PreBuildSteps.Add("echo Before building:");
PreBuildSteps.Add("echo This is $(TargetName) $(TargetConfiguration) $(TargetPlatform)");
PostBuildSteps.Add("echo After building!");

Change 3080579 on 2016/08/08 by Ben.Marsh
Slate: Move DEBUG_TAB_MANAGEMENT into SDockingTabStack.h to remove circular include dependency with DockingPrivate.h.
Change 3080587 on 2016/08/08 by Ben.Marsh
StandaloneRenderer: Move platform includes into a separate header so we can make individual headers self-contained, without having a circular dependency on StandaloneRendererPrivate.h.
Change 3080789 on 2016/08/08 by Ben.Marsh
Move BuildGraph tasks for chunking, posting builds, labeling builds, and merging manifests into the MCP project. While we do provide public interfaces for this functionality, we don't currently expect anyone outside Epic to be using them.
Change 3080815 on 2016/08/08 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add a -GenerateDocs option, which writes out an HTML file constructed from C# XML documentation containing all the task information.
Change 3081374 on 2016/08/08 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Invalidate the makefile if any UHT headers are deleted. Should fix issue where files are moved from one module to another, and the original module no longer contains any generated headers. Its include path needs to be removed from the compile environment.

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.

D3D12RHI: Move around some implementations to fix circular header dependencies which are masked by delayed template instantiation.
Change 3090303 on 2016/08/16 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.

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2986511 on 2016/05/23 by Ben.Marsh
UdpMessaging: Force references to symbols in the files containing UDP automated tests. Since plugins are compiled into static libraries before being linked into the executable, the linker will exclude any object files which don't have any referenced symbols. In non-unity builds, or adaptive unity builds with modified test files, this results in the tests not being linked in.

UBT: Use a well defined order for parsing configuration files, rather than ignoring one file if another has a newer timestamp. Prevents confusing behavior where settings can be present, but are completely ignored. Now prioritizes the BuildConfiguration.xml file in the My Documents/Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool, followed by the one in AppData/Roaming/Unreal Engine/UnrealBuildTool. Both are added to the Config section of the solution if present, under different folders.

#jira UEB-664
Change 3017701 on 2016/06/17 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Relax a lot of the restrictions relating to using output tags from nodes. Output tags may contain an arbitrary set of files, including files which are also in other tags or produced by other nodes, but will not be written to temp storage more than once. The default tagged set of files for a node (eg. #MyNodeName) now includes all build products produced by that node.
Temp storage now separates the storing of build products from the tags which reference them. A TempStorageFileList object is written for each output tag, which includes a list of files as well as a list of the storage blocks referenced by it. When a node depends on a tag, the TempStorageFileList is read first and used to determine which storage blocks to read.
All tasks now have overloaded functions for returning the tags which they modify and/or reference, and errors are produced if an existing tag is modified, or referenced without being added as an input dependency.
Change 3017714 on 2016/06/17 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Allow specifying multiple tag names in the 'Tag' attribute of build tasks (or 'With' attribute of the 'Tag' task).
Change 3018007 on 2016/06/17 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add sections to the target receipt listing files which are required to build using precompiled binaries (as previously generated using -generateexternalfilelist), and runtime dependencies that may be required when using precompiled binaries but aren't actually required for the current target (which previously had to be specified through InstalledEngineFilters.ini). Tested by running UBT with arguments "UE4Game Win64 Development -precompile -xgeexport" and examining target receipt.

MAJOR FEATURES + CHANGES
==========================
Change 2959679 on 2016/04/28 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Show the original author for changes with a #ROBOMERGE-AUTHOR tag.
Change 2959695 on 2016/04/28 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Only filter out changes from by buildmachine that contain the string "CIS Counter".
Change 2960798 on 2016/04/29 by Ben.Marsh
Remove C++ version of ParallelExecutor. Now implemented in C# as part of UAT.
Change 2960928 on 2016/04/29 by Ben.Marsh
UGS: Change filter for buildmachine changes to only include rebuilt lightmaps.
Change 2963214 on 2016/05/02 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Allow specifying optional dependencies for a node, indicating that the build products from an upstream node are desired, but should not block the node from running.
Change 2964454 on 2016/05/03 by Ben.Marsh
Change PostBuildInfoTool to PostBadgeStatus, and add position-independent argument parsing.
Change 2964533 on 2016/05/03 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add the ability to generate summary badges from BuildGraph scripts, which can be pushed into a separate database for consumption by UGS.
Change 2964852 on 2016/05/03 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add a task which can submit a set of files to Perforce, optionally creating and using a different workspace to do so.
Change 2966856 on 2016/05/04 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Allow specifying a filter for the changes considered when looking for the most recent change. Allows filtering out content changes for UGS builds, code-only builds, etc...
Change 2966867 on 2016/05/04 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Restore code to always set time in CIS state; we never want large builds to trigger off their defined interval.
Change 2967504 on 2016/05/05 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Make sure the intermediate directory exists before writing out the list of changes in StreamCopyDescription.
Change 2967778 on 2016/05/05 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Detect the P4 environment by querying Perforce for the setting of P4PORT, rather than assuming it's set in an environment variable. Windows stores this setting in the registry rather than the environment, but it's also valid to be set via P4CONFIG.
Change 2967815 on 2016/05/05 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Copy the initial resource pool setting from the stream settings into an EC property
Change 2967873 on 2016/05/05 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Allow stream settings to be stored directly in /GUBP_V5/Streams/ rather than having to be in a child property sheet.
Change 2969294 on 2016/05/06 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Extend ConformResources command to allow updating the pools that resources are assigned to, and to limit the number of machines which are syncing at once. Also added new EC procedure to allow specifying these arguments.
Change 2969371 on 2016/05/06 by Ben.Marsh
EC: Allow overriding the stream and workspace identifier synced by the builders. Overriding the stream allows syncing a narrower view of files (eg. Dev-Main vs Main), and overriding the workspace identifier allows sharing a workspace between two streams.
Change 2970623 on 2016/05/09 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Prevent Ctrl-C handler delegate from being garbage collected and failing to be triggered.
Change 2970627 on 2016/05/09 by Ben.Marsh
UAT: Don't limit the list of valid target platforms specified on the command line to just those that we have initialized. Ignoring the platform if the SDK is not installed is never what the user wants.
Change 2972140 on 2016/05/10 by Ben.Marsh
Change 'Engine, Tools and Monolithics' to include QAGame and Template editors, but exclude everything downstream of a trigger.
