Extracting full source code
How can I get the full source code for certain game .cpp files? I want to learn more about the mechanics of saving blueprints by the blueprint designer and for that I want to see the full source code of FGBuildableBlueprintDesigner. I may also need to extract source code of other files.
Solution
That's the neat part. You don't.
CPP compilation is a one way process to turn human readable code into machine instructions. Using the headers, pdb files, and a decompiler like ADA or Ghidra you can figure out what those machine instructions are and attempt to map them onto human readable variables and functions. But you don't ever get the actual .cpp unless someone gives it to you.
