Synopsis
We've had one session on pointers yes, but what about a second session on pointers? ;)
In Unreal Engine C++, we don't actually use raw pointers all that often. Instead, we use the shared pointer templates such as TSharedPtr so that the classes and structs we allocate are automatically reference counted.
This session covers everything you need to know about shared pointers in Unreal Engine C++, including how to allocate things with MakeShared, weak pointers with TWeakPtr and using TSharedFromThis.
