Issue with platform settings, changes not applied

Unity 5.3.1 on Mac, I am trying to add a framework to an iOS project, along with compile flags:

"To fix this you must select the UnityBluetoothLE.mm file in the plugins/ios folder. Once you select it you can enter a value in Compiler flags. Put -fno-objc-arc. Another new feature of Unity 5 is that you can now specify additional frameworks that are needed by the plugin. You do this by opening the Rarely used frameworks section and checking the CoreBluetooth framework. "

When I select a file in the plugins folder, in the inspector tick a framework that I want to add, then hit apply, the settings aren't saved.

What am I missing?

 

Edit, this still isn't working actually. On iOS, under Platform settings, when I tick a framework then click apply it resets.



Any ideas? Thanks

 

Thanks @Jordi Bonastre trying this on 5.3.1p4

Will send you a DM with editor log.

 

Same problem with Unity 5.3.1f1 on a Mac.
But it works fine with same version of Unity on another Mac.

 

I have the exact same issue on my mac with Unity3D 5.3.2p2. Someone already have a solution?

 

I tried it on my pc too with Unity3d 5.3.2p2 and same issue not saving the changes.

 

I am the author of the Unity Plugin for iOS and Android that these guys are having trouble with.

I am having the same problem. I know it worked in previous versions of Unity 5.

I am on Unity 5.3.1.p4

I am now downloading 5.3.2.p2 which is the latest to try it out. I am on a Mac.

I sent a direct tech support email as well. Support ticket #38735

Please let me know what I can do to help get this fixed. It is urgent for my customers and yours.

 

As a test to rule out a couple things I just created a brand new project, created the Plugins/iOS folder, manually added a .mm file and got the same results.

To me this seems to rule out project upgrade or my plugin being the problem.

 

I'm glad in a way that I'm not the only one going mad.

I submitted a bug report with an empty project on 26th Jan, have had a reply from @Jordi Bonastre on 28th "I haven't been able to reproduce the issue with 5.3.1f1 . I have increased the priority of your bug and QA'll take a look ASAP. I'll follow the bug report and if there is anything more that could do, let me know, please."

But no word from Unity on the bug yet.

Thanks

 

I just downloaded and installed 5.3.2p2 and everything works again.

Not sure if it is a bug fix or if the act of updating unity fixed it.

 

Another thing that might be a factor is that I rename the Unity folder on my Mac to include the version (like Unity_4.3) so that when I download a new version using the installer it gets put into Unity as a fresh folder. Then I rename that folder to Unity_5.3.2p2 (for example).

This means every time I update unity it is basically a fresh install. Not sure if that has anything to do with this, but thought it was worth mentioning in case other people update to 5.3.2p2 and it doesn't fix the problem.

 

Is there a workaround for this? Can I something do in xcode to get this to work? So I can continue my work.

Edit: Unity3D 5.3.0f4 works correctly. So there must be a bug somewhere.

 

Got an email reply to my issue...

Looks like this problem is back with version 5.3.4p1. Either that or it was never fixed and had something to do with installing different versions that made it work for me at one point.

 

A work around is to manually set the values in xCode after you build from Unity. This really sucks and is a huge pain, but it will get you by.

After you build from Unity open the xcode project.

Go to the build phases. In the Link Binary with Libraries section add the Corebluetooth framework.

Then in the Compile section find the UnityBluetoothLE.mm file. It should be at the bottom, but could get elsewhere in the list. Right click it and a box comes up that you can put in the compiler flags / options.

Hopefully Unity will finally fix the bug soon.

 

I just found another work around.

If you change the project editor settings so that you are using Text meta files then you can open the UnityBluetoothLE.mm.meta file with a text editor.

Then find the iOS line and change its section to look like this:

iOS:
enabled: 1
settings:
CompileFlags: -fno-objc-arc
FrameworkDependencies: CoreBluetooth;


You still will not be able to change this in the editor, but at least it will build and compile correctly.

 

This issue is still happening in 5.3.4p6

 

Hi,
This still reset to any platform and happens when we upgrade projects to higher version. I tested on 5.6+

Please let us know if a fix exists. On upgade, all Android projects are getting set to "Any Platform"

Thanks,
