Hello,
looking to create a button in a HUD, linked to a method of a class, I followed this tutorial: https://wiki.unrealengine.com/UMG,_R…dding_Modules:
but when I copy the code provided, and I compile / generate the code, here is the error that Visual Studio gives me:
ps: sorry for the lines in French, the lines that pose me problems are those speaking of “error LNK2019”.

here is my two files where the code of the tutorial is (when I comment them, all compile fine) :
HEADER :
// Fill out your copyright notice in the Description page of Project Settings.
#pragma once
#include "CoreMinimal.h"
#include "GameFramework/PlayerController.h"
#include "Manette.generated.h"
class UUserWidget;
/**
*
*/
UCLASS()
class GENPROC_TEXTURE_API AManette : public APlayerController
{
GENERATED_BODY()
public:
// Note: that I am using forward declaration Because I am not including the
// widget in the header and to prevent circular dependency.
// You don't need to do that if you include the Widget Class in the .h
// Forward declaration is just putting "class" before the class name so the compiler know it's a
// class but it's not included in the header and don't freak out. Ex. “class UUserWidget”
// Reference UMG Asset in the Editor
UPROPERTY(EditAnywhere, BlueprintReadWrite, Category = "Tests")
TSubclassOf<UUserWidget> Generer;
// Variable to hold the widget After Creating it.
UUserWidget* GenBouton;
// Override BeginPlay()
virtual void BeginPlay() override;
};
SOURCE FILE :
// Fill out your copyright notice in the Description page of Project Settings.
#include "Manette.h"
#include "Blueprint/UserWidget.h"
void AManette::BeginPlay()
{
Super::BeginPlay();
if (Generer) // Check if the Asset is assigned in the blueprint.
{
// Create the widget and store it.
GenBouton = CreateWidget<UUserWidget>(this, Generer);
// now you can use the widget directly since you have a referance for it.
// Extra check to make sure the pointer holds the widget.
if (GenBouton)
{
//let add it to the view port
GenBouton->AddToViewport();
}
//Show the Cursor.
bShowMouseCursor = true;
}
}
I am not a veteran programmer, nor an expert on Unreal engine with C ++.
can you help me find the error or provide me with a simpler solution?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
