Development Programming & Scripting

Hello :slight_smile:

When I add new class via Add Code to project, and then I don’t make any changes in code, i just hit compile in editor (Unreal) then I get compilation error

Im developing on OSX, and If i compile using XCode, then it is fine.

This is error log:

You can only compile in the editor if you change some code inside a function. It doesn’t work if you add a new class or a new function. You have close the editor, compile it in Xcode/VS and then you can start debugging again.
