UAssetManager::GetPrimaryAssetObjectClass
#include "Engine/AssetManager.h"
Access: public
Specifiers: inlineconst
Description
Templated helper that gets the in-memory class object for a primary asset id, useful when the primary asset is itself a Blueprint class.
Caveats & Gotchas
- • Returns an empty TSubclassOf if the asset isn't loaded or isn't a UClass — it silently casts rather than asserting.
- • Internally calls GetPrimaryAssetObject and Cast<UClass>, so it has the same in-memory-only limitation: it never triggers a load.
