Get Blueprint class by String in C++

Development Programming & Scripting
19

Update to the update :slight_smile:

To get rid of the intelisense error you can change

#include "CoreMinimal.h"

to

#include "EngineMinimal.h"

Then you can just use:

UClass* Result = FindObject<UClass>(ANY_PACKAGE, *ClassName)

Also note that if the engine hasn’t loaded the class, this might not find it. In that case you will want to use this to load the class:

UClass* Result = StaticLoadClass(UObject::StaticClass(), nullptr, *ClassName, nullptr, LOAD_None, nullptr);
