UE3 - UDK Is there a way to get a list of subclasses of a class?

[kiff]

I want to traverse the subclass tree of a given class. Specifically, I want to find all of the subclasses of Weapon and sort/categorize them by certain property values. Is there a way to do this?

Right now I'm using: array< class<Weapon> > MyWeaponClasses that is filled out by hand in the def props. Works fine, but I'd prefer not having to do this.

You're trying to do this in script? Not sure there's a way to do that.

 

[kiff]

Yea, in script. Obviously there's a native way, since the editor does such things, but...

um i would like to do that also !
that way i can know what proprietys i can use for weapons already wroten etc

Kiff is trying to do something different than what you're thinking, you just need to use a program like UnCodeX to do what you're talking about.

try parsing the output of the "obj classes" consolecommand

 

[Wormbo]

That, of course, is limited to classes already loaded.

Or you could brute force it by dynamicloadobject'ing everything. DynamicLoadObject("SomePackage.NonExistantClass", class'class', true) will still cause the entire package to be loaded. To get the list of .u packages worth loading you can either iterate through the .int files (using GetNextInt) or you can use the "dir" consolecommand and load everything from there.

Interesting... yea, the output of "obj classes" has exactly what I need. I think it would only be realistic if I moved all of my weapon's code to their own package and only force it to load that. thanks!

edit: haven't tried it yet, but I'm thinking that moving the weapons to their own package might cause some dependency issues.
