Unreal Engine blueprintable UFUNCTION on component causes build error

I've created a class derived from UActorComponent and I want to make few of it's methods BlueprintCallable. However adding this to UFUNCTION macro causes build errors. The class header looks like this:

#include "CoreMinimal.h"
#include "Components/ActorComponent.h"
#include "Includes.h"
#include "Items/ItemInfo.h"
#include "Inventory.generated.h"

UCLASS( ClassGroup=(Custom), meta=(BlueprintSpawnableComponent))
    class UNTITLEDGAME_API UInventory : public UActorComponent
    {
        GENERATED_BODY()

    public: 
        // Sets default values for this component's properties
        UInventory();

    protected:
        // Called when the game starts
        virtual void BeginPlay() override;

    /*
    *some other methods 
    */
    public:

        UFUNCTION() // like this it's fine, but if I put BlueprintCallable or BlueprintPure keyword here it causes troubles
            uint32 GetNumberOfItems() const;
    };

I can't figure out how I'm supposed to make it work, especially since it worked in one of my previous projects. Can anybody help me with this?

The problem is that the uint32 type is not supported by Unreal Blueprints: you have to stick with int32 (or uint8 / Byte)
