Hi, Unreal gurus.
I made some changes to UBT and I want to compile it ONLY.
Normal #make just wouldn’t do it for me.
I wrote a simple script after some research like this:
export MONO_PATH=`pwd`/Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/Mono/Linux
export UE_MONO_DIR=`pwd`/UnrealEngine/Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/Mono/Linux
source Engine/Build/BatchFiles/Linux/SetupEnvironment.sh
./Engine/Binaries/ThirdParty/Mono/Linux/bin/xbuild Engine/Source/Programs/UnrealBuildTool/UnrealBuildTool.csproj
But it didn’t work out and complains like this:
>>>> xbuild tool is deprecated and will be removed in future updates, use msbuild instead <<<<
XBuild Engine Version 14.0
Mono, Version 5.16.0.0
Copyright (C) 2005-2013 Various Mono authors

So how can I rebuild UBT properly without rebuilding whole engine?
Thank you.
