Enums in UE4 c++

Quick set-up of Enums in C++, having them available in blueprint, and a few tools you can use with them.
For copy pasting:
UENUM(BlueprintType)
enum EMyEnum
{
PRE_Value1 UMETA(DisplayName = "BlueprintName"),
PRE_Value2 UMETA(DisplayName = "BlueprintName2"),
PRE_Value3 UMETA(DisplayName = "BlueprintName3")
// etc. etc.
};

Using UE4.25.3 - It worked for me.. thanks !

This is so frustrating. I am converting my blueprint code to C++ in a new project but can't make a dang enum because a red squiggly says it expects a semicolon yet I am doing everything right from this video and from looking at other examples. Is it because of my version is 4.20.2 and Visual Studio version 2017 version 15.8.1?

More shortly to string: FString LocalRoleEnumString = UEnum::GetValueAsString(GetLocalRole()); FString LocalRoleEnumString = UEnum::GetValueAsString(GetLocalRole());

A bit of a noisy work environment you got there. Would drive me crazy.

Its 2020 ...Well I Dont know if you are seeing this but i have a doubt .... do we have to write WEAP_ ..... before the names like pistol and all at 1:53

[@devnyorm944]

No, thats just the guy deciding to use a naming convention. You can call them whatever, but its good coding etiquette or something or other to have a naming rule...

This didn't worked for me, in 4.19

[@Chaosian]

I was able to get mine to compile in 4.20.1 by using used the following include instead of including the .generated line: #include "CoreUObject.h"

[@IWillYeah]

Believe you need to compile it first
