ue4 integration

[Adv4nc3d123]

I'm trying to use the HSM with ue4, however enabling RTTI in ue4 makes packagingimpossible, but when I don't enable it I can't seem to get it to work because of the RTTI.

Hi there,

If you disable RTTI, you'll need to add the DEFINE_HSM_STATE() macros in each of your states to inject the custom RTTI info needed by hsm. Check out the info in the documentation: https://github.com/amaiorano/hsm/wiki/Chapter-1.-Getting-Started#rtti

If you haven't already, I highly recommend reading the doc. Let me know if that works for you! I've shipped UE4 multiple games that use HSM, so it should work out just fine.

Hi, this is what I am doing right now (just leaving 1 state in there) and the baseState in there in case I happen to be using the wrong syntax;

struct MyStates { struct BaseState : hsm::StateWithOwner { DEFINE_HSM_STATE(BaseState); }; struct Grabbed : BaseState { DEFINE_HSM_STATE(Grabbed);

    virtual hsm::Transition GetTransition()
    {
        if (!Owner().m_pBlackboard->GetValueAsBool(ISGRABBED))
            return hsm::SiblingTransition<FallLoop>();

        return hsm::NoTransition();
    }
    virtual void OnEnter()
    {
        Owner().m_bShouldProcess = true;
        Owner().m_Animstate = EAnimEnum::Grabbed;
    }
};

};

this throws me all of these erors: Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Error (active) E0135 namespace "hsm" has no member "StateTypeIdStorage" FluffyFactory C:\perf\Grp_Fluffy\Dev\FluffyFactory\Source\FluffyFactory\FluffyCharacter.cpp 33

which are basically the same for every state I Define I am currently using the latest Release Build I could find on here.

[Adv4nc3d123]

So I downloaded the second latest release (1.5) and had to comment the line //static_assert(std::is_convertible<TargetState, State>::value, "TargetState must derive from hsm::State");

and add this define at the start to make it build

define HSM_CPP_RTTI 0

Seems to me there must be something missing in the latest release or the syntax of something has changed which I am not aware off.

This assert is important, you should not remove it. If you're triggering it, it means you've probably added a DEFINE_HSM_STATE somewhere you shouldn't. This macro should only really be added to the actual states you transition to, not to base classes for your states. I noticed in the code you pasted above that you had added this macro to your BaseState, which you shouldn't be doing (see this example: https://github.com/amaiorano/hsm/blob/master/samples/hsm_book_samples/source/ch3/drawing_hsms.cpp).

and add this define at the start to make it build

define HSM_CPP_RTTI 0

This is correct. You are supposed to define this to 0 to disable C++ RTTI, and make use of the custom RTTI. I assume you had already done this even before downgrading.

Seems to me there must be something missing in the latest release or the syntax of something has changed which I am not aware off.

I think you found a bug in the latest version related to custom RTTI. When I get the chance, I'll take a look and see what's up. For now, using 1.5 should be perfectly fine.
