Nodes can now be implemented by arbitary C# methods. Graph structure is specified through expression trees implemented using Bg* types, which are not substituted with values until execution time. Doing so allows determination of node and option dependencies for a particular target, allowing us to generate dynamic UI for presenting relevant settings to the user.
Includes partial implementation of Installed Build script as an example implementation.

#jira UE-46274
Change 3589827 by Graeme.Thornton
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
- Added documentation for UEConsoleTraceListener
- All platforms .NET project compilation tasks/launch configs now use "dotnet" and not the normal batch files
- Restored the default UBT log verbosity to "Log" rather than "VeryVeryVerbose"
- Renamed assemblies for .NETCore versions of DotNETUtilities and UnrealBuildTool so they don't conflict with the output of the existing .NET Desktop Framework stuff
Change 3589868 by Graeme.Thornton
Separate .NET Core projects for UBT and DotNETCommon out into their own directories so that their intermediates don't overlap with the standard .NET builds, causing failures.
UBT registers ONLY .NET Core C# projects when generating VSCode solutions, and ONLY standard C# projects in all other cases
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Improve Intellisense when generated headers are missing or out of date (eg.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 Previous macro was preventing any following class declaration being parsed correctly if generated code was out of date, causing squiggles over all class methods/variables.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.
Change 3597213 by Ben.Marsh

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

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)");

==========================
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.

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.

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.

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...

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.

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 3277307 on 2017/01/30 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Fix private PCHs not using correct header. Causes custom definitions to be excluded from the command line.

More auto-release pool/memory-handling fixes for Metal's debug layer, which depends upon ARC:
- Better handling of parallel context creation & pooling in MetalRHI.
- Metal queries return the actual value so that we can use local autorelease pools to capture ARC retain/autorelease calls in the debug layer.
- Similarly EndEncoding needs a local autorelease pool to handle the debug layer's ARC retain/autorelease calls.

Record Metal resource & state objects used in a command-buffer when rhi.Metal.RuntimeDebugLevel is set to 3 or higher. The object labels, types & descriptions will be printed on failure - if the object is deleted prior to this then we have a lifetime error and it will crash at this point and can be debugged further using our -metalretainrefs command-line option or Xcode's zombie-objects.
Used to verify that FORT-31649 is not a simple resource lifetime error and thereby speed up Apple/vendor investigations.

Change 3183807 on 2016/11/02 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Change the way we access the Metal viewport's backbuffer, to reduce possible causes of FORT-31649:
- Added console variable "rhi.Metal.SupportsIntermediateBackBuffer" to control whether to use an extra render-target so we can support screenshots & movie capture, or render directly to the back-buffer to save memory & GPU performance. Still defaults to ON for Mac & OFF for iOS/tvOS.
- Change the way we handle updates to the back-buffer size to ensure that the different threads access their intended version.

#commonui
Added an action handler interface that I have been wanting for awhile.
Updated action widget to ignore design time changes since it relies on a common ui context instance.
Cleaned up activatable panel interface and commited events on a input action registered to be handled. Our activatable handle automatically handles things for now without asking blueprint if we should.
Cleanedup up miscellaneous activatable panel internals
Activatable panels can now choose to expose input actions registered to that panel.
Replaced activatable panel reflector with common input reflector
Added a common global input handler that implements the action handler interface
Updated common button and common tablist widgets appropriately to register with global input handler for appropriate actions.
Buttons now have separate triggering actions vs. triggered actions. Triggering actions can only be set during creation of the button whereas triggered actions can be set anytime.
Moved a lot of the boilerplate code for action button into common button to trigger and listen for actions, or register with the global input handler for triggering actions.
Fixed typos in common ui types.
Updated CommonUITestBed with new changes.

Common Button now properly handles its interactibility changing when it's toggleability has changed - previously, being selected when toggling is turned on would leave the button non-interactible and thus not practically toggleable.
Change 3174285 on 2016/10/25 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Fix command-buffer failures when resizing windows on Mac - we have to capture windowWillResize: events in our window delegate and then forward on a call to Slate's OnResizingWindow event handler, that internally causes rendering to flush. If we wait to do this in windowDidResize then the actual device back-buffer resource will have been reallocated and we presumably end up trying to render into garbage memory on the GPU, causing the intermittent command-buffer failures.

Fix FORT-31526 by setting appropriate defaults for FEditorCompositingParameters when the feature isn't being used, as Metal still requires something be bound for the values. This all stems from Fortnite using GizmoMaterial somehow when whacking Llamas to reveal the cards contained within - I suspect the 'real' fix is not to use an Editor material in the game client...

Change 3170663 on 2016/10/21 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Further changes to finally fix the underlying cause of FORT-25473 and all future potential instances: SetStreamSource overrides the stride from the vertex declaration and MetalRHI wasn't properly considering what to do with Stride=0, which should disabling vertex attribute stepping. This also requires fixing some gotcha's in the StateCache.

Fix a potential crash due to unnecessary reinitialisation of the MetalRenderPipelineDesc mutex.
Change 3169614 on 2016/10/20 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Fix FORT-25473 caused by incorrect handling of vertex attributes in Metal: FParticleSpriteVertexFactory specifies the dynamic particle parameter attribute (VA 5) with a non-zero stride, which implies vertex or instance stepping - but for the P_Rocket_ColdMist_FXV effect only a single float4 is provided with the intent that this be constant for all instances. Other APIs may implicitly wrap the VA read back around but Metal does not and simply reads garbage off the end of the buffer - potentially this could even cause a GPU crash. MetalRHI now detects when the buffer bound to an attribute can't support more than one instance and if needed updates the vertex declaration to make such attributes constant.
#jira FORT-25473

Added UIProxyActor. This is intended as a single proxy actor to replace the existing, class specific, proxy actors.

Implements r.EarlyZPassOnlyMaterialMasking.
Fortnite grass/trees is using masked material. However masked materials are doing clip in early z pass and base pass, both preventing the pixel shader from using the early depth test. This CL execute material's mask opacity only in the early z pass to keep early depth test on expensive mask material's base pass pixel shader.

Split localized package redirection out of FCoreDelegates::PackageNameResolvers
They're different enough in behavior that the delegate resolution was breaking the localized package resolution by resolving in too many places and causing the localized package to be loaded with its real localized name as well as the fake non-localized name.

Change 3146016 on 2016/09/29 by Daniel.Broder
Added BlueprintGameplayTagLibrary function "Get All Actors of Class Matching Query".
It uses TActorIterator to find only all actors derived from the specified class and then further winnows them by whether they match a GameplayTagQuery. If any actor does NOT implement IGameplayTagAssetInterface, the function will log ONCE a warning that the class in question doesn't implement the required interface to be able to check for matching tags. (NOTE: This function can be extremely expensive if there are a large number of actors of the class requested, so be cautious using it.
It can be used at initialization time to find a specific subset of actors to act on (for example).

Change 3137164 on 2016/09/22 by Mark.Satterthwaite
Add stats to track exactly how many command buffers are allocated and committed each frame to work out why Fortnite on AMD is hanging, which turns out to be because each texture update/reallocation ends up in its own command-buffer. This needs to be rethought to pack these into fewer command buffers with the same synchronisation requirements to minimise command-buffer splits but for now we'll just make the default sufficiently large that we shouldn't see the hang until the work is done. Also ensure that command-buffer failure is always fatal - there is no way to recover or continue if a command-buffer fails.

UBT: Move functionality for finding headers into its own class (CPPHeaders), rather than hijacking CPPEnvironment.
Change 3152101 on 2016/10/05 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Always force include PCHs, even if they're the first header in the file. Clang already has to work this way, as do shared pchs on Windows, and it's simpler to use the same system universally.

UBT: Write arguments for the Visual C++ toolchain to the response file on separate lines, for easier debugging.

Lightmass: Add a prefix to all SSE macros to distinguish from overlapping implementations in Core.
Change 3156159 on 2016/10/08 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Rewrite code to generate/consume shared PCHs in a way that is compatible with Clang platforms (and which doesn't require supressing warnings on Windows)
* Per-module defines are now set via a generated header rather than the command line (Definitions.<ModuleName>.h). This header is force-included AFTER the shared PCH header.
* Shared PCHs are now built using the public compile environment only, eliminating situations where private include paths and definitions from the first module using the shared PCH were being passed to the compiler.
* Shared PCHs can now be generated in separate optimized/unoptimized variants if necessary due to per-module optimization settings
* Names of shared PCHs now follow the pattern "SharedPCH.<ModuleName>.h" to distinguish from private PCHs
* Enabled shared PCHs for Mac, iOS, Linux.
Reduces UE4Editor Mac build times by ~25% (~21m vs ~28m).
Change 3163040 on 2016/10/14 by Ben.Marsh
UBT: Add an option to export a target's properties, modules, and binaries for external analyzers (-jsonexport and -jsonexport=<filename>). Also add an option to specifically supress building a target (-skipbuild).

Change 3165076 on 2016/10/17 by Ben.Marsh
Build: Remove run conditions from agent setup steps. Should fix issues where an agent doesn't run because the preconditions for one of its nodes failed, but which doesn't prevent another node from running. (Also: being able to see an expanded list of job steps is a useful feature, and it doesn't take much time to run if it's a no-op).
Change 3167773 on 2016/10/19 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: More flexible <Copy> task for BuildGraph. Now takes "From" and "To" attributes, which may take individual files as well as wildcards, and permits renaming as part of copies. Separate "Files" attribute is still supported, but is now optional, and is used to filter the list of source files.
Examples, taken from Engine/Build/Graph/TagsAndFiles.xml:
<!-- Source and destination are treated as directories due to presence of 'Files' attribute -->
<Copy Files="..." From="Engine/Build" To="Output0" />
<!-- Single file -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/Build.version" To="Output1/Output.version" />
<!-- Output treated as directory -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/.../*.txt" To="Output2" />
<Copy From="Engine/Build/.../*.txt" To="Output3/" />
<Copy From="Engine/Build/....txt" To="Output4" />
<!-- With rename -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/....txt" To="Output5/....old" />
<!-- Copy only subdirectories of Engine/Build, but maintain directory structure -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/*/....txt" To="Output6/" />
<!-- Match bat*/.../*.txt -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/bat...txt" To="Output7" />
<!-- Copy only PS4 subfolders -->
<Copy From="Engine/Build/.../ps4/..." To="Output8" />

BuildGraph: Add a <Move> task, which can move or rename files using the same syntax as the <Copy> task.
Change 3168034 on 2016/10/19 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Add support for multi-line properties, declared inside a <Property> tag.
Mutli-line properties can be useful for making lists for filtering. Each non-empty line inside the property tag is stripped of leading and trailing whitespace, and appended to the property value separated by a semicolon. For example, the following two properties have an identical value:
<Property Name="Prop1" Value="One;Two;Three;One hundred"/>
<Property Name="Prop2">
<!-- Some numbers -->
One
Two
Three
<!-- Values are delimited by newlines; spaces within a line are preserved -->
One hundred
</Property>

UBT: Fix chronic algorithmic complexity of StableTopologicalSort(). Was recursively building lists of dependencies for each module, scanning linearly to find dependencies, and only caching pairs of modules being checked. Now caches a flat set of dependencies for each module.
Previously took >10s to run on my machine, now takes < 0.2s.
Change 3169271 on 2016/10/20 by Ben.Marsh
BuildGraph: Modify implementation of task merging. Instead of combining multiple tasks together, allow any task to supply a proxy executor instance deriving from ITaskExecutor, to which other tasks can be added. Keeps the in-memory representation closer to the script representation, and makes it easier to re-export preprocessed scripts and do in-memory analysis of the graph.

UBT: Reduce the number of resource files needed to compile local builds. ModuleVersionResource.rc.inl is now always only compiled once, and linked into each output binary. The default PCLaunch.rc file is also only compiled once, expect when making formal builds (where -formal is passed on the command line, or a changelist is set in Build.version). This ensures that the OriginalFileName metadata is still set for output binaries in binary releases.
