I am implementing logging functionality in Unreal Engine 4.27 (in C++). A key part of my code is a function that is called once per game-tick. This function is responsible for iterating over an array of actors that I would like to log data for, checking whether a new log entry should be written at this point in time and calling the necessary functions to do that.
I am iterating over elements of a TArray of UStructs: LogObject->LoggingInfo = TArray<FActorLoggingInformation>
. This array is defined as a UProperty of LogObject. In the loop I have to change the values of the elements so I want to work with the original items and "label" the current item as "ActorLoggingInfo". I have seen this done generally in cpp and also with TArrays. And yet my code does not work, there is no error message, but ActorLoggingInfo
is undefined, thus the if-condition is never met.
This is the for-loop:
for (FActorLoggingInformation& ActorLoggingInfo : LogObject->LoggingInfo) {
if (ActorLoggingInfo.LogNextTick == true) {
ActorLoggingInfo.LogNextTick = false;
...
}
...
}
This is the definition of FActorLoggingInformation
:
USTRUCT(BlueprintType)
struct FActorLoggingInformation
{
GENERATED_BODY()
public:
FActorLoggingInformation()
{
}
FActorLoggingInformation(int32 LogTimer, AActor* Actor, FString LogName)
{
this->LogTimer = LogTimer;
this->LogNextTick = false;
...
}
// Specifies Logging Frequency in ms
UPROPERTY(BlueprintReadOnly, VisibleAnywhere)
int32 LogTimer;
bool LogNextTick;
...
};
This is the debugger at run-time:
Additional Notes:
1. Something that consistently works for me is omitting the &
, using:
for (FActorLoggingInformation ActorLoggingInfo : LogObject->LoggingInfo)
However, this is creating useless duplicates on a per-tick basis and complicates applying changes to the original objects from within in the for-loop, so it is not a viable option.
2. I have also tried auto&
instead of FActorLoggingInformation&
as used in the examples above, but I encountered the same issue, so I thought it would be best to be as explicit as possible.
I would be very thankful if you had any ideas how I can fix this :) Thanks in advance!
