Hey, i can´t create any project in c++ because the program reports an error generating the code. here´s the log. Can someone help?

The project failed to compile with this version of the engine. Build output is as follows:

I am receiving the same issue. Building it with VS works when I go to project->references-> vc dirs and set them to inherit from parent, but still does not allow the in-game compiler to work. As such, I am unable to update classes in realtime, requiring a whole new compilation through VS each time, which in turns seems to require restarting UE.
