This repository relies on Git LFS for storing binary blobs (e.g. third-party libraries). Sadly, there is a known issue with Microsoft Azure public LFS repositories that requires credential for LFS checkouts on https (LFS ssh checkouts are not supported at all). Unless, you are part of SenseGlove organization on Microsoft Azure there is no easy way to fully clone this repository using Git. Thus, the best way to download this repository is to use the 'kebab' (three vertical dots) menu next to the clone button, in order to download the whole repository including LFS objects as a unified zip file.
* Microsoft Visual Studio 2022 is not supported by Unreal Engine 4.22 through 4.26.
* All third-party libraries on Windows built against Windows SDK 10.0.
* Oculus support is only provided through the recommended Android NDK r21b by Epic Games.
* Supporting Unreal Engine 4.22 through 4.24 for Oculus development is a huge challenge due to limited Android NDK support (r14b to r18b); firstly, because of uncomplete C++11 standard library support, and second, as a result of a known bug in Unreal Engine, which falsely detects NDK r18b as unsupported r18c. Thus, only Unreal Engine 4.25+ support is provided for Android/Oculus development. Third, [wjwwood/serial](https://github.com/wjwwood/serial) requires Android NDK API Level 28+ in order to be built successfully, thus some older NDKs such as r14b, which is the recommended NDK by Epic Games for 4.22 to 4.24 cannot build the serial library.
* All third-party libraries target Android NDK API Level 29, thus any project relying on the plug-in should be build with the same NDK API Level.
For the C++ documentation, since this plugin builds on top of [SGConnect](https://senseglove.gitlab.io/SenseGloveDocs/native/core-api-intro.html#sgconnect) and [SGCoreCpp](https://senseglove.gitlab.io/SenseGloveDocs/native/core-api-intro.html#sgcorecpp) third-party C++ libraries, please refer to [the upstream documentation](https://senseglove.gitlab.io/SenseGloveDocs/native/cpp-reference.html).
Also, you could refer to the header files in every module for extensive documentation, or the equivalent Blueprints documentation.
The following modules are intended to be used by the C++ users of this plugin:
* SenseGloveConnect module which only uses a very small subset of the Core SGConnect libary.
* SenseGloveCore module which is mostly a one-on-one wrapper call to most of the SGCoreCpp library with slight differences.
Please note that modules postfixed with **Impl** are intended for interal use and are discouraged to be used by the users of the API. The modules postfixed with **Kismet** are exposing the functionality of the equivalent modules to Blueprints. For other modules descriptions, please see [the Directory Structure section](#directory-structure).
Please note that while the SenseGlove plug-in for Unreal Engine is made available under the [MIT License](LICENSE.md), it utilizes a few third-party libraries with permissive free licenses as well, in order to power various components. For a list of these libraries and their own respective open-source licenses take a look at [LICENSE-THIRD-PARTY.md](LICENSE-THIRD-PARTY.md), please.
