Error building Unity 5 for iOS

Question

I'm using APP42 API (3.2.1) and Unity 5.0.0f4. 

When I compile with mono (2.x), it fails with following error.

Cross compilation job App42_Unity3D_SDK_3.2.1.dll failed.

UnityEngine.UnityException: Failed AOT cross compiler: /Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/PlaybackEngines/iossupport/Tools/OSX/mono-xcompiler-wrapper.sh --aot=full,asmonly,nodebug,static,outfile="App42_Unity3D_SDK_3.2.1.dll.s" "App42_Unity3D_SDK_3.2.1.dll"  current dir : /Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed

 result file exists: True. Timed out: False

 

stdout:

Mono Ahead of Time compiler - compiling assembly /Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/App42_Unity3D_SDK_3.2.1.dll

Missing method UnityEngine.WWWForm::get_headers() in assembly /Users/xxx/New Unity Project

 

When I play in editor, it shows following error on the method  uploadService.UploadFileForUser().

 

Missing method UnityEngine.WWWForm::get_headers() in assembly /Users/xxx/New Unity Project

Also it fails with 

Failed running /Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Tools/UnusedByteCodeStripper2/UnusedBytecodeStripper2.exe -out "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed" -l none -c link -x "/Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/Tools/UnusedByteCodeStripper/native_link.xml" -f "/Applications/Unity/Unity.app/Contents/Frameworks/il2cpp/LinkerDescriptors" -x "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/../platform_native_link.xml" -x "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/methods_pointedto_by_uievents.xml" -d "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed" -a  "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/Assembly-CSharp-firstpass.dll" -a  "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/UnityEngine.UI.dll" -a  "/Users/xxx/New Unity Project 15/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed/App42_Unity3D_SDK_3.2.1.dll"

 

Did I missed any configuration?  Or app42 API sdk isn't compatibility with Unity 5 (ios)? If yes, when will be compatibility with Unity 5 and 64 bit?

For android it builds without problem.

Thanks in advance,

Hello,

Thanks for your patience. we are releasing App42 Unity SDK 4.0 beta version which is compatible for Unity5 patch2 and above version for following build and can be downloaded fromhere.

• Unity Web Player
• Android
• iOS (Mono) & iOS (IL2CPP)
• Desktop Standalone app
• Window Phone

Since Unity 5 still has issue with HTTPS  on iOS build, you have to point your build to use our HTTP interface instead of HTTPS as shown below. You have to just set this after App42 API initialize:

App42API.SetBaseURL ("http://ns.api.shephertz.com/cloud/");

Please see our change log for detail information about feature and bug fixes.

Thanks,

I tried Beta 4 and setup as you said it works perfectly in Editor above but when I run on real device. It prints out hundred  of warning like below.
Please note that, this is just a scene with some GUI elements for testing there is no 3D objects

I'm using: Unity 5.0.1p3 on MAC

Thanks for sharing the logs with us. Could you please check is this happening after integrating App42 SDK in your project or its by default? It will help us to debug further and provide better support to you.

Thanks,

Hello,

There is some issue with latest version of Unity which you can find below. Once we find the fix from Unity Side, will update the SDK as well. Also, we are trying to get the work around too to get the quick fix.
