Help with Spawning Mesh Along Spline in c++

I made some changes to the code but I didn’t test them, they ended up being similar to what @3dRaven said:

void AMeshSplineTool::SpawnMeshAlongSpline()
{
	const float SplineLength = MySplineComponent->GetSplineLength();
	const float MeshSize = 10.0f; // Using Blueprint as example, dont know where the value comes from.

	const int LastIndex = FMath::TruncToInt(SplineLength / MeshSize);

	UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("LastIndex = %d"), LastIndex);

	for (int Index = 0; Index < LastIndex; ++Index)
	{
		if (Index * MeshSize + MeshSize <= MySplineComponent->GetSplineLength())
		{
			FVector StartPos = MySplineComponent->GetLocationAtDistanceAlongSpline(Index * MeshSize, ESplineCoordinateSpace::Local);
			FVector EndPos = MySplineComponent->GetLocationAtDistanceAlongSpline(Index * MeshSize + MeshSize, ESplineCoordinateSpace::Local);
			FVector StartTangent = StartPos.GetClampedToSize(0.0f, MeshSize);
			FVector EndTangent = EndPos.GetClampedToSize(0.0f, MeshSize);
			
			FString Name = FString::Printf(TEXT("MySpline_%d"), Index);
			
			USplineMeshComponent* Spline = NewObject<USplineMeshComponent>(this, *Name);
			
			if (Spline && MeshAsset && MeshAssetMaterial)
			{
				Spline->SetMobility(EComponentMobility::Movable);
				Spline->SetCollisionEnabled(ECollisionEnabled::QueryAndProbe);
				Spline->SetStaticMesh(MeshAsset);
				Spline->SetMaterial(0, MeshAssetMaterial);
				Spline->SetStartAndEnd(StartPos, StartTangent, EndPos, EndTangent, true);
				Spline->RegisterComponent();
				Spline->AttachToComponent(RootComponent, FAttachmentTransformRules(EAttachmentRule::KeepRelative, true));
			}
			else
			{
				UE_LOG(LogTemp, Warning, TEXT("Error creating component OR MeshAsset NULL or MeshAssetMaterial NULL"));
			}
		}
	}
}

Please, post the error too.
