Engine Commands
ue4 build-target
Build the specified target using UBT.
Usage syntax:
Description:
This command invokes UBT to directly build arbitrary targets. Unlike the ue4 build command, these targets are not scoped to a project or plugin descriptor, so this is primarily useful for building Engine tools and programs when working with a source build of the Unreal Engine.
The first parameter specifies the target to build (e.g. UE4Editor
, ShaderCompileWorker
, UnrealFrontend
) and is required.
The second parameter optionally specifies the build configuration to build, which can be any of the valid Unreal Engine build configuration states:
- Debug
- DebugGame
- Development
- Shipping
- Test
If no build configuration is explicitly specified then the Development configuration will be built by default.
