I’ve built a network protocol into .o/.a, .lib and .dll libraries. How can I include these into my game? ---

Because I’m new to Unreal and am unfamiliar with the capabilities of the APIs and because the documentation is in a state of disarray. ---

Thanks! I always search through the docs and answer hub before posting questions. The search results, while being partially related, weren’t direct answers. ---

To give an understanding of what I’m up to: I need to have Unreal listen to a server with user-defined IP and port number, and then parse the XML data. ---

This article doesn’t address how to link pre-built libs that were created in a different environment. Is there no way to include the .o/.a files into an Unreal Project?
