IL2CPP for Windows Store Apps in 5.3 beta?

I see that in Roadmap for 4.3 but not in post "Preview of 4.3".. still coming, right?

 

It's not worth a whole doc to explain that the feature is in with a simple ui choice in the settings.

 

Any benefits of using?

 

WOW!!! that is extremely awesome news

 

Just spotted in the 5.3b2. Added IL2CPP support for Windows universal

 

I'm doing something wrong,
install IL2CPP,
then backup MetroSupport,
install .net,
and copy and replace (or copy and skip) IL2CPP MetroSupport over .net MetroSupport
empty project, default scene, unity running as admin
build target Universal 10 D3D

 

sorry, Universal 10 IL2CPP build fails

building again now to get the exception

 

Exception: Failed to build Visual Studio project using arguments 'C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\14.0\Bin\MSBuild.exe "C:\Users\O\Documents\!Unity\5.3.x\!Builds\Windows Store\TESTING\TESTING.sln" /nologo /maxcpucount /p:Configuration=Release /platform=x86 /p:SolutionDir="C:\\Users\\O\\Documents\\!Unity\\5.3.x\\!Builds\\Windows Store\\TESTING\\" /t:Build /clp:Verbosity=minimal'.

etc...

 

heres whats in red in visual studio

using namespace UnityPlayer;
m_AppCallbacks = ref new AppCallbacks();
private:
UnityPlayer::AppCallbacks^ m_AppCallbacks;

sorry i don't know c++ so this looks very confusing
i'm guessing fixing the 1st line error: name must be a namespace name will fix things ?

 

forgot to mention it built to visual studio with no errors,

outside of the c++ errors, is
the compile command,
and Payload file '...\SymbolMap' does not exist.

 

i don't know how too,
theres only 5 errors, the rest warnings 12296

just copied each individually

 

appreciate the drawing
attached log

 

deleted but vs thing still there

 

thank you for your patience with me,
still same thing

unchecked build for IL2CPPOutputProject and its running

The in-game dev console shows
unable to find type
NetworkMessageInfo

Thank you
Looking forward to b3

 

its a working empty scene,
just trying it out on my project now

 

its really awesome to see it running supa fast in c++! Thanks again for getting this running

 

Will wait for the next beta drop to test this properly then, too many workarounds even for a beta :S
Keep up the great work team (oh and UNINSTALL VS2010/2012 so last decade, lol.)

 

yea its the build time that takes longer then doing the workaround

1. Build only from unity, next steps are all in vs
2. edit windows store build file Unity Data.vcxitems, removing those lines of code
3. open up solution, wait for that to do what ever it does
4. change platform to your target
5. build solution
6. right click on solution, click properties and click configuration manager, uncheck build for IL2CPPOutputProject
7. hit play

 

tried some assets off the store,

getting a break in Object.cpp GetVirtualMethod

how do i paste here without the smilies

 

thanks for the tip on insert code,
what does repro project mean?
so report bug in unity from project that caused this bug ? leave project attached (ICode from asset store)
crash bug, always, il2cpp windows universal 10, reflection bug?

 

i live in rural new zealand, so my upload speed is pretty slow, will who ever processes the bug report have access to asset store assets to reproduce the project,

--edit , i'll just delete the Library folder

 

Case 735266

 

@Tautvydas Zilys

Does that mean that if your game runs on iOS with il2cpp backend it should run on wsa10 universal .net native too?
that would be such great news and we would postpone the release of our game for windows 10 universal until il2cpp in 5.3 because it's almost impossible to get it to work for us on 5.2 because of some libraries.

 

thats really really great news! the first time I won't complain about il2cpp

what are you going to do about preprocessor directives? if you have il2cpp as backend is then still #UNITY_WSA, _RT etc. set?

 

Can you not have native plugins while using IL2CPP with windows 10 universal? Or should that still work?

 

I tried to make a build today for WSA SDK10 + IL2CPP with some native c++ plugins that I develop.

While the NetCore builds work fine, when trying to build with IL2CPP the plugins do not get included and I get of course linker errors.

 

Thank you for fix!

 

Tautvydas Zilys,
Thank you for all your help! Following your suggestions I was able to get an empty project running as a universal windows app (running in a windows phone emulator since i am building on windows 8.1). However when I build my team's actual app, the code fails an assert during startup in Parameter.cpp line 28:

Code (csharp):

1.  
2.     TypeInfo* parameterType = Class::FromIl2CppType(parameter->parameter_type);
3.     if (parameterType->valuetype)
4.     {
5.         assert(parameterType->initialized);
6.         void* value = alloca(parameterType->instance_size - sizeof(Il2CppObject));
7.         utils::BlobReader::GetConstantValueFromBlob(typeOfDefaultValue->type, data, value);
8.         return Object::Box(parameterType, value);
9.     }
10.  

Do you know why? Is this an issue with my code or an issue in the beta? I've attached the stack trace and the values from the "Autos" window.

Thank you for your help.


More Details about my build:
running windows 8.1
Unity 5.3b3 with windows store il2cpp plugin (no .net core plugin).
with the vs2010 fix installed
building for windows store with these options:
sdk: universal 10
uwp build type: D3D
with Unity C# projects selected.

When in visual studio 2015 community i switched the platform from ARM to x86 and chose a mobile emulator to run on (720p 5inch 1gb). Then pressed play. After it built and deployed i got exception before my app loaded.
