Thanks Feng
There is some piece of code where variables are declared as
and when needed, i was porting this to UDK compatible
The earlier code was on EDK which used /TP option.
so the same i am trying to continue on UDK as well
Is there a way to overcome this behaviour with /TP option
Alternate solution is to remove /TP and declare the variables at the
beginning of the function (or) open a block to declare variables and run
the code, it does work
