Syntax

enum EStructSerializerBackendFlags
{
    None                           = 0,
    WriteTextAsComplexString       = 1<<0,

    Default                        = WriteTextAsComplexString | WriteByteArrayAsByteStream,
}

Values

Name	Description
None	No special behavior.
WriteTextAsComplexString	Write text in its complex exported format (eg, NSLOCTEXT(...)) rather than as a simple string.
WriteByteArrayAsByteStream	Write TArray/TArray as byte string if possible (CBOR), starting at 4.25.
WriteCborStandardEndianness	Force the CBOR backend to write CBOR data in big endian (CBOR compliant endianness), available from 4.25.
Legacy	Legacy settings for backwards compatibility with code compiled prior to 4.22.
Default	Default settings for code compiled for 4.25 onwards.
