Anyone porting RatNet library to Unity?

I'm trying hard on this.
RakNet seems quite stable and I'm trying to porting ti to Unity.
Following the instruction provided by Raknet, I've succeed porting to arch i386. I can use mono to run native code which Raknet provides. But when porting to iOS, some errors occur
I'm just wondering if anybody also doing this thing?

 

Old unity networking is actually built around raknet. It's like a wrapper I guess, and you interact from outside, through your scripting.

I Google'd a bit and see older threads talking about others trying to get something like your saying going, but couldn't find much info on any existing assets that implement it "from the outside". I didn't look thoroughly though.

 

Yes, since old unity networking can use raknet, I guess at least it could be done.
I used Swig to generate c++ wrapper for the RakNet and C# scripts to P/invoke the wrapper. But after switching to iOS and running in iPad I always get

NotSupportedException: To marshal a manged method, please add an attribute named 'MonoPInvokeCallback' to the method definition.

Welp, that's all over my head. I usually port stuff from other languages into c#, but never tried working like you are with stuff.

Good luck!

 

I was also able to get raknet working via swig on windows / linux. I'm still working on mac. Haven't tested on any mobile platforms yet but if you have any luck please post back here!

 

OK,still trying

 

MonoPInvokeCallback solve the problem
I'm really happy now

 

Hi @song_jiang, did you manage to get a working iOS build with RakNet? I'd be very interested in learning how you got MonoPInvokeCallback to work, I have managed to build a static library but when running on my device I get the error
EntryPointNotFoundException: SWIGRegisterExceptionCallbacks_SharingClient

I've posted some more details here:

Thanks!
