Hey

Nice to see that. I've been more or less sucessfully able to compile/cross compile sdk for windows/linux using unreal build automation.

If it going to be any of help here are scripts I've been using:

is unreal engine 5 supported or not:
Followed this walkthrough and it fails??
https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/gametech/how-to-integrate-the-aws-c-sdk-with-unreal-engine/

Can we get official answer rom aws as its your sdk.

There is a unreal engine 4 demo that appears to work however cannot get it to work with unreal engine 5.
Think its the aws sdk for unreal engine 5

I've started building a SDK for Unreal Engine here: aws-sdk-unreal.

It has the setup steps fully automated using vcpkg - building, copying, initialization. So far only tested with 5.3 on Windows, Mac & iOS.

It will require some more testing to ensure it fully supports all the platforms and configuration, but it's time to put all the fixes of the community in one place.

AWS SDK causes major issues with Linux. Primarily because vcpkg utilizes g++ for compilation while Unreal uses clang. This causes issues with std symbols specially, because g++ uses libstd while clang uses libc++ as standard library (as far as I know)

I managed to clean up a lot of the errors, but not all. Hopefully, you were better at it than me brother. I will test your plugin soon.

That is a great point. The aws-sdk-unreal relies on custom triplets to compile the binaries according to Unreal's standards.

For your specific Linux case, we don't have a dedicated triplet, but I wrote on in the past here: x64-linux-unreal. If you need to plugin to work on Linux, let's work together and I can write for triplet file for you.

}

CMake seems to be producing some generated code, which the unreal utility can't handle, and I had to manually go to intermediate folder and manually copy if (before it got auto deleted).

Hope it will be helpful.

Converting this to a Discussion. The ask is an effort we intend to pursue over time rather than a single change with a near-term milestone, so a Discussion is a better home for gathering use cases and tracking the pieces.
