UActorComponent::IsReadyForEarlyEndOfFrameUpdate

function Engine Since 4.9

#include "Components/ActorComponent.h"

Access: public Specifiers: inlineconst

Description

Returns true if this component was marked for end-of-frame update with the bReadyForEarlyUpdate flag, allowing the engine to process it on a worker thread before the strict end-of-frame point.

Caveats & Gotchas

• This is a read-only query of the bReadyForEarlyEndOfFrameUpdate flag set by MarkForNeededEndOfFrameUpdate — do not use the result to conditionally skip work, only to inspect scheduling state.
• A return value of true does not mean the update has already run — it means it *may* run early if the scheduler decides to.
• The flag is cleared once the update executes, so polling this after end-of-frame will return false even if it was originally set.
