Followed answer here, trying to use the CableComponent plugin.

im able to include the cablecomponent.h file, (and declare an instance of it) ( still compiles fine here )

#include "CableComponent.h"

	UPROPERTY(Category = Cable, VisibleAnywhere)
	UCableComponent* Cable;

however when i do this:

Cable = PCIP.CreateDefaultSubobject<UCableComponent>(this, TEXT("Cable"));

I get the following error on compile:

Error 2 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol “private: static class UClass * __cdecl UCableComponent::GetPrivateStaticClass(wchar_t const *)” (?GetPrivateStaticClass@UCableComponent@@CAPEAVUClass@@PEB_W@Z) referenced in function "public: class UCableComponent * __cdecl FObjectInitializer::CreateDefaultSubobject(class UObject *,class FName,bool)const " (??$CreateDefaultSubobject@VUCableComponent@@@FObjectInitializer@@QEBAPEAVUCableComponent@@PEAVUObject@@VFName@@_N@Z)

Edit*:
Ive also tried the following:

Getting both the CableComponent.cpp and .h from the github repository → results in lots of external symbol errors similar, but different from the above.

Edit:

My build.cs contains the following:

PublicDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "Core", "CoreUObject", "Engine", "InputCore" });

PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "CableComponent" });
PrivateIncludePathModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "CableComponent" });

Does your Build.cs include the CableComponent module?

There should be a list of public and private dependency modules in your Build.cs file and CableComponent module must be included in one of those lists.

Ive included as the following:

    PrivateDependencyModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "CableComponent" });
    PrivateIncludePathModuleNames.AddRange(new string[] { "CableComponent" });
