Change 2799478 on 2015/12/11 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream1
Added Dev Stream custom versions.
- Each stream now has its own custom version
- Developers working in a stream should only modify their respective version
Change 2789867 on 2015/12/04 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream1
UnrealHeaderTool plugins no longer need to be a separate plugin and don't require UnrealHeaderTool source code changes to work.
- Merged ScriptGeneratorPlugin with ScriptPlugin
- Introduced the concept of UHT plugin support for plugins so that UHT's source files don't need to be modified to make it work with external plugins
- Added RuntimeNoProgram module type (module that can be used at runtime but not by program targets).
- Fixed logic with project file path setting in the engine. It will no longer try to crate a full path from an already rooted path.

Change 2783106 on 2015/11/30 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream2
Introduced GC UObject clusters. GC clusters provide means to create disregard for GC subsets at load time (e.g. Materials with material expressions and their textures).
- Saves about 25ms in reachability analysis (58ms -> 33ms)
- UObject classes/instances can now be marked as cluster root objects with CanBeClusterRoot() function override.
- Cluster creation is automatic. Clusters don't require any manual handling for GC to collect them when nothing is referencing them.
- Moved token stream processing to a new class FFastReferenceFinder to make it more generic and re-usable by other code
- Removed REFERENCE_INFO macro from GC code and replaced it with a local variable (saves about ~1.9ms: 33.2ms -> 31.3ms)
Change 2773094 on 2015/11/19 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
Multicast script delegate check for existing bindings replaced with ensure.
Multicast native delegate no longer checks for existing bindings.
Removal of old delegate code.
Some FORCEINLINEing to improve debugging experience of stepping into delegate code.
Change 2782180 on 2015/11/27 by Graeme.Thornton@GThornton_DesktopMaster
Make scoped seconds timer class available outside of stats build. Normal usage macros still remain guarded
Added SCOPE_SECONDS_COUNTER_RECURSION_SAFE which only times during the outmost instance of a recursive function
Added SCOPE_SECONDS_COUNTER_RECURSION_SAFE_BASE and SCOPE_SECONDS_COUNTER_BASE which are defined in all build types, for easy temporary timing in Test/Shipping builds.
Added a boolean parameter to the timer class which can be used to disable it without having to mess around with scoping the calling code
Change 2782635 on 2015/11/30 by Graeme.Thornton@GThornton_DesktopMaster
Added GetTimeStampPair() to the filemanager and platformfile interfaces. Requests timestamps for a pair of files where we assume that both files would always exist at the same wrapper level. Allows us to skip file system queries for localization package lookups where the native file is in a pak but the localized file doesn't exist.
Change 2775153 on 2015/11/20 by Jaroslaw.Surowiec@Stream.1.JarekSurowiec

FMath::IsPowerOfTwo is now templated to take any type.
Change 2773643 on 2015/11/19 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
GetDelegateInstance() calls replaced - delegate instances never compare equal unless you are comparing two unbound delegates (both null) or comparing a delegate with itself.
Change 2777686 on 2015/11/23 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core

Change 2780962 on 2015/11/25 by Jaroslaw.Surowiec@Stream.1.JarekSurowiec

#UE4 Removed DiskCachedAssetDataBuffer as it was not strictly necessary and was triggering a crash when loading the cached registry from disk. This data is now stored directly in DiskCachedAssetDataMap. It was already true that this map does not change outside of SerializeCache but now it is critical since NewCachedAssetDataMap keeps pointers directly to its values.
Asset registry fixes by Bob Tellez. Possible fix for UE-23783.
Change 2782564 on 2015/11/30 by Robert.Manuszewski@Robert.Manuszewski_NCL_Stream1
FReferenceCollector::AddReferenceObjects performance improvements for TArrays. ARO will no longer call HandleObjectReference multiple times but instead will call HandleObjectReferences just once (currently only implemented for FGCCollector). Reduces the number of virtual function calls while GC'ing.
Change 2782716 on 2015/11/30 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
UObject serial number array initialized for debug visualization.

Change 2783061 on 2015/11/30 by Steve.Robb@Dev-Core
* Multicast delegate Add* calls now return FDelegateHandles, and Remove* calls are now all deprecated, except for a new Remove function which takes a FDelegateHandle.
* New FConsoleManager::RegisterConsoleVariableSink_Handle and UnregisterConsoleVariableSink_Handle functions which work in terms of FConsoleVariableSinkHandle.
* Timer calls which don't take FTimerHandles are deprecated.
* FTicker::AddTicker now returns an FDelegateHandle and is removed by an overloaded Remove function.
* DEFINE_ONLINE_DELEGATE* macros now define _Handle variants of the Add/Remove functions which return/take handles.
* Various other handle-based registration changes.
* Some unity build fixes.
* Some simplification of delegate code.
* Fixes for lots of existing code to use handle-based registration and unregistration.

[CL 2305058 by Max Preussner in Main branch]
This is controlled by the macro "WITH_CASE_PRESERVING_NAME", which is currently just set to "WITH_EDITORONLY_DATA" so that it works in editor builds (and UHT).
Added an extra NAME_INDEX entry to FName to store a second string table index for a case-variant string. The previous Index value (now called ComparisonIndex) is still used for comparison purposes (as FNames are still case-insensitive).
The Init process for an FName now works like this:
1) It will find or add a string table entry for the given string (not matching case) - this entry index is stored in ComparisonIndex.
2) It will then compare the string table entry string against the given string (matching case) to see if it also needs to add a case-variant entry for the FName.
3) If it does, it finds or adds a second string table entry (matching case) for the string - this entry index is stored in DisplayIndex.
Hard-coded FNames (those listed in UnrealNames.h) do not support case-variants (due to existing network replication rules for hard-coded FNames), so they skip steps 2 and 3.
I added FMinimalName, which is the same size as FName was previously. This shouldn't really be used (and as such, is deliberately awkward to make/use) as it loses the case-preserving behaviour of FName, however it was required for some things (like stats) that had a hard-coded upper limit on FName size.
I added FScriptName, which always contains the extra display index (even when WITH_CASE_PRESERVING_NAME is disabled). This is used by Blueprint bytecode, as the types used by Blueprint bytecode must be a consistent size between all build configurations.
Other changes:
- Fixed up any places that were passing an Index into the FName constructor which was supposed to take an EName.
- Some places were doing this to make the number unique when replicating an object, but this was losing the case-variant information, so I had to fix them.
- FName will now assert if the EName constructor is used with an value outside the range of hard-coded FNames.
- Ensured that assets, actors, and blueprint components could all be renamed in a way that only changed their case, and that these changes were correctly persisted.
- Added FLinkerNamePairKeyFuncs and TLinkerNameMapKeyFuncs for use with TSet and TMap.
- These allow ULinkerSave and ULinkerLoad to correctly write out case-variants for FNames, and also fixes an issue where the linker would erroneously write out duplicate string table entries for FNames which had a different number (causing package bloat).
- Bumped VER_MIN_SCRIPTVM_UE4 so that all Blueprint bytecode is recompiled using FScriptName.
