changes in .onClick events in 5.2.1?[SOLVED]

Hello,
I was learning with the UI unity tutorial
http://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/...-training-archive/modal-window?playlist=17111

and it seems as I was following it, that the method onClick doesn't exists anymore?

I shortened it (full version on the tuto page : modalPanel script) here :

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using UnityEngine.UI;
3. using UnityEngine.Events;
4. using System.Collections;
5.  
6. public class ModalPanel : MonoBehaviour {
7.  
8. public Button yesButton;
9. public void Test () {
10. //PROBLEM HERE : the .onClick event is in red in the editor like if the method doesn't exist
11. yesButton.onClick.RemoveAllListeners();
12. }

just this simple line will throw this error :
error CS1061: Type `Button' does not contain a definition for `onClick' and no extension method `onClick' of type `Button' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference?)

 

That should still be correct. I'm not sure what could be going wrong.

 

So could it be a bug?
Does anyone can test this same script on a scene?
Just a canvas with a panel and an ui button on it.
and tell if the onclick even exists?

 

i just copied the script to a 5.2.1p1 version and everything compiles fine.

 

???
So I don't understand at all, Here's a copy of my screen :


We could see with the editor, that the event doesn't exists for the yesButton.
Is there something OBVIOUS that I miss?

 

I know this is a long shot, but do you by any chance happen to have a custom class named Button that could cause a conflict? Just thinking out loud here.

 

No class named that way, but thanks for trying

 

I'm currently working on a Mac with Yosemite, just in case ..

 

what do you mean by this?

 

in the default unity script editor for mac "Mono-develop", it got a feature(i don't know how it's called there, i'm french) that suggest the methods existing for the name that you type, and if you try to wrote a method that doesn't exists for this object, the rest of the line is wrote in red, like in the screenshot above.
So if it's in red, it'll got a compile error.

In my screenshot the "onClick.RemoveAllListener" is in red because the onClick event doesn't exist for my yesButton Object (and when I try to execute the code anyway, i got an error)

 

Ah ok you were talking about you're development editor not the Unity editor i'm following now.

So as i'm running low on ideas it almost seem like the UI dll is missing. Are you able to create UI elements in the editor (a Button for example)? if not i'd suggest redownloading 5.2.1 and seeing if that fixes it. If you can create the elements then im at a even bigger loss for whats going wrong.

 

Yes, i can create buttons and panels and so on...
Could it be a nasty bug ?

 

yea it sounds like a compiler bug... Like it being underlined in red could just mean the IDE isnt loading the dll. but it failing to compile as well in unity is very odd. I know its a big ask but have you redownloaded & installed Unity to see if that fixes the issue?

 

Ok I will. As soon as i get the time to re download everything I'll post the result here

 

I just redowload unity and install it : same problem

 

Do you get ANY other errors in the console?

 

If you highlight the Button class name in the line "public Button yesButton;" and go to definition does it in fact take you to the UnityEngine.UI.Button definition like it should? I'm thinking the same as Senshi on this one, you must have a class named Button that is being used instead of the UI.Button.

You could remove the "using UnityEngine.UI;" and see if the compiler now complains about the Button class not existing. Or you could explicitly define public UnityEngine.UI.Button yesButton;

 

No, the only error in the console is this one :
Assets/Scripts/ModalPanel.cs(17,27): error CS1061: Type `Button' does not contain a definition for `onClick' and no extension method `onClick' of type `Button' could be found (are you missing a using directive or an assembly reference

 

HOLY **** !
When I does that it redirects me to a Button.cs script that was made by another person in another temp script directory !! Now everything's explained !
Sorry Senshi, I really didn't knew about this class, that was made for a particle effect on the store, that was stored on my particle directory. You guessed all right long ago.

thanks again everyone, I'm ashamed that i didn't knew about this script, that i should have seen earlier
But thanks again to everyone. I was quite worried.

 

Muahaha, I win! \0/ Glad you got it all sorted out! Happy Unitying and have fun learning more about the new UI! =)
