How to set AttachParent

Development Programming & Scripting C++
1

I know now AttachParent is private, but how do I set it ?

2

AttachTo() should work fine.

3

I use SetupAttachment() for components

Yeah, by the looks of it, SetupAttachment() would be the better option for setting up the attachment parent of a component in a classes constructor.

[TABLE="class: highlight tab-size js-file-line-container"]

if (ensureMsgf(!bRegistered, TEXT("SetupAttachment should only be used to initialize AttachParent and AttachSocketName for a future AttachTo. Once a component is registered you must use AttachTo.")))
