UAssetManager::HasInitialScanCompleted

function Engine Since unknown

#include "Engine/AssetManager.h"

Access: public Specifiers: virtualconst

Description

Returns true once the AssetManager has finished its startup scan of all configured primary asset types. In editor builds this can complete much later than in cooked games.

Caveats & Gotchas

• In editor builds the initial scan can complete much later than in cooked games because it depends on the asset registry's background scan finishing first.
• Code that runs before this returns true may see incomplete GetPrimaryAssetIdList/GetPrimaryAssetDataList results for types that haven't finished scanning yet.

Signature

bool

Example

Waiting for the initial scan before querying assets C++

if (UAssetManager::Get().HasInitialScanCompleted())
{
	TArray<FPrimaryAssetId> AllItems;
	UAssetManager::Get().GetPrimaryAssetIdList(FPrimaryAssetType("Item"), AllItems);
}
