Description
Index into the global name table pointing to the case-preserved version of the string, used when converting the name back to its original mixed-case form. Access via GetDisplayIndex().
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Only present in memory when WITH_CASE_PRESERVING_NAME is defined (editor and debug builds). In shipping builds the member does not exist and GetDisplayIndex() returns ComparisonIndex directly.
- • GetDisplayIndex() must not be called on a name constructed with ENoInit — the field contains garbage and the validity check inside GetDisplayIndex() may assert.
