Project header file is not found (Unreal Engine 4 project) about sourcetrail HOT 13 CLOSED

It looks like the source and header files are in different directories. My suspicion is that either the Include Path you entered is wrong, or you entered the Include Path after analyzing the project and then it didn't recognize the change when you added the Include Path.

Can you please check if the Include Path is right and then try a "Force Refresh" of the Project (Menu -> Edit -> Force Refresh).

I think in that case Coati wouldn't have found the other headers as well. But regarding the screenshot it doesn't report any errors there. Your project settings look fine.
The only difference I can see between the headers Coati has found and the header it hasn't found is that the questionable header's name contains an underscore.
I'll investigate.

I'm sorry to say that I could not reproduce your bug. Even after setting up the same directory structure Coati was still able to locate the header.
So please try to force-refresh your project. If that doesn't work, you could try to add the include path to your source paths instead and force-refresh again.

I will try asap a force refresh and hope for the best not so sure if I did it really in the correct order. Anyways a really interesting result.

Ok the solution for ue4 projects is that the header files are not allowed to appear in the "analysed paths" category. They have to be only in the "header search paths" else he doesn't get it...

But after adding the engine path I get a reproducible crash as he analyses the FS_GameMode.cpp. Unreal Engine 4 projects probably utilize to much macro magic and their Unreal Header Tool is the deathblow.

The log file contains a lot of errors that read like this:

ERROR: 'Engine.h' file not found

I assume that 'Engine.h' is a header file of Unreal Engine 4. You also need to add the path to those header files to the "Header Search Paths" in your project. Please let us know if you can successfully analyze then.

Does this mean Coati does not support Unreal Engine 4?

Unfortunately we didn't hear from @pwinter1991 since the end of December.
In the meantime we have changed a lot in Coati's source code analysis. So we would be happy if someone would give it another try and use Coati on an Unreal Engine 4 Project ;)
If you have any issues while using Coati on Unreal Engine 4 Projects, please report them on this bug tracker. We would be very happy to investigate and fix them!

from sourcetrail.

There's a bit of a chicken and egg problem. I don't know if it'll work and testing on the project can only be done if Coati is licensed..

from sourcetrail.

I see! We'll investigate that for you and throw Coati on some open source UE 4 projects.

If you need a sample project, this one is suitably complicated.

Works fine for me now the "load project from solution" helps especially. Really great addition.

@pwinter1991 nice to hear from you again! How does your project look inside Coati? Does it show all the nodes and connections you would expect to be there?
