UAssetManager::GetPackageCookRuleManagers

function Engine Since unknown

#include "Engine/AssetManager.h"

Access: public Specifiers: virtualconst

Description

Returns the primary assets that determine whether a package is included in the cook, along with whether each reference is direct or indirect.

Caveats & Gotchas

• This only reports cook-inclusion managers; chunk-assignment managers that don't affect whether the package cooks at all are excluded — use GetPackageManagers if you need the superset.
• bRecurseToParents can return a much larger manager set for deeply-nested asset references, since it follows the dependency chain upward rather than stopping at the first direct manager.

Signature

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Default
PackageName	FName	Package to find cook-rule managers for.	—

Example

Find why a package is being cooked C++

UAssetManager& Manager = UAssetManager::Get();
TMap<FPrimaryAssetId, UE::AssetRegistry::EDependencyProperty> Managers;
if (Manager.GetPackageCookRuleManagers(TEXT("/Game/Items/Sword"), /*bRecurseToParents=*/true, Managers))
{
	for (const auto& Pair : Managers)
	{
		UE_LOG(LogTemp, Log, TEXT("Cooked because of %s"), *Pair.Key.ToString());
	}
}
