FText::UnregisterTextGenerator
#include "Internationalization/Text.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: static
Description
Removes a previously registered ITextGenerator factory, preventing new instances of that type from being created during deserialization.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Does not invalidate existing FText instances that already hold a generator of this type — they continue to function until destroyed. However, any subsequent deserialization of such FText values will fail to recreate the generator.
- • Call this in ShutdownModule() to mirror each RegisterTextGenerator call. Failing to unregister before module unload can leave a dangling function pointer in the global registry, causing a crash if a matching FText is later deserialized.
