Title: 3.5.7 build fails for Windows 8/8.1 in in Unity 4.3
Post by: unitydude on April 17, 2014, 07:31:23 PM
Hi,

I am trying to build Example 0 (or anything else) targeting Windows Store Apps, the build fails with the following messages


--------------------
Assets\NGUI\Scripts\Internal\PropertyReference.cs(302,12): error CS1061: 'System.Type' does not contain a definition for 'IsClass' and no extension method 'IsClass' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Type' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets\NGUI\Scripts\Internal\PropertyReference.cs(344,10): error CS1061: 'System.Type' does not contain a definition for 'IsAssignableFrom' and no extension method 'IsAssignableFrom' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Type' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets\NGUI\Scripts\Internal\PropertyReference.cs(403,18): error CS1061: 'System.Type' does not contain a definition for 'GetField' and no extension method 'GetField' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Type' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Assets\NGUI\Scripts\Internal\PropertyReference.cs(404,21): error CS1061: 'System.Type' does not contain a definition for 'GetProperty' and no extension method 'GetProperty' accepting a first argument of type 'System.Type' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

Error building Player because scripts had compiler errors
----------------------------------------

Notes:
-I have unity 4.3.4.f.1 on a Win 8.1 x64 machine.
-I was able to successfully build Example 0 for the windows phone 8
-I am able to build other apps normally targeting windows store apps
-I tried targeting 8.0 and 8.1 (same errors)
-tried a simple scene with one sprite and got the exact errors

Can you please advise

Thanks

WP8/WSA doesn't support reflection properly, so none of that will work. Change the #ifdef at the top of the file to:
  1. #if UNITY_EDITOR || (!UNITY_FLASH && !NETFX_CORE && !UNITY_WP8)
  2. #define REFLECTION_SUPPORT
  3. #endif

Thank you for the answer, FYI  for you to add in later versions  I had to put #if REFLECTION_SUPPORT

around

[DebuggerHidden]
[DebuggerStepThrough]

And the Reset method

Cheers

This problem is still happening in the current 3.5.8 build from the asset store.

It's happening again in 3.5.9. This time at the new ByteReader since File is not available in Metro.

Here is how I fixed it:

   static public ByteReader Open (string path)
   {
        throw new System.NotImplementedException();
        //FileStream fs = File.OpenRead(path);

        //if (fs != null)
        //{
        //    fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.End);
        //    byte[] buffer = new byte[fs.Position];
        //    fs.Seek(0, SeekOrigin.Begin);
        //    fs.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
        //    fs.Close();
        //    return new ByteReader(buffer);
        //}
        //return null;
   }

Perhaps you could setup a batch file to try out all the builds using the unity command line: https://docs.unity3d.com/Documentation/Manual/CommandLineArguments.html

Then you could find these kinds of build errors easily before releasing.
