Disable bitcode in XCode project as postprocessbuild activity

Hi developers,

I am trying to disable BITCODE setting in a build XCode project from Unity. I understood that i have to make a postprocess method that will set the bitcode to NO.

I used the following code. But still when i open the XCode project the value is still YES. That is why i can't build now in Unity Cloud build for iOS. Can someone help me finding out what i am doing wrong? I put this file in an Editor map in my project hierarchy and see that the debug statement at the end has run.

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. using System.IO;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using UnityEditor;
5. using UnityEditor.Callbacks;
6. using UnityEditor.iOS.Xcode;
7.  
8. namespace MMM.BuildPostProcess
9. {
10.     /// <summary>
11.     /// This class manages the post build process
12.     /// </summary>
13.     public static class BuildPostProcess
14.     {
15.         [PostProcessBuildAttribute(999)]
16.         public static void OnPostProcessBuild(BuildTarget buildTarget, string pathToBuiltProject)
17.         {
18.             if (buildTarget != BuildTarget.iOS) return;
19.  
20.             // change bitcode to false
21.             var projPath = pathToBuiltProject + "/Unity-iPhone.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj";
22.             Debug.Log("[BuildPostprocess] Build iOS. path: " + projPath);
23.  
24.             var proj = new PBXProject();
25.             var file = File.ReadAllText(projPath);
26.             proj.ReadFromString(file);
27.  
28.             var target = proj.GetUnityMainTargetGuid();
29.  
30.             proj.SetBuildProperty(target, "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
31.  
32.             File.WriteAllText(projPath, proj.WriteToString());
33.  
34.             Debug.Log("[BuildPostprocess] Bitcode disabled.");
35.         }
36.     }
37. }

 

Hi there, if you're still having this issues, check out the bottom of this thread, the solution is a string replace... Don't even get me started...

Aaah yes, another build process to miraculously fail in the future when they change the pbx structure to say:

ENABLE_BITCODE = TRUE

Seriously...

YES

?

YES

??!!! Who designed this, COBOL programmers?!

 

Love it @Kurt-Dekker ! I lol'ed for real at your comment. ;-)
Hey man, since you're in the trenches with me on the whole FB SDK junk, could you take a look at this one I am having trouble with? https://forum.unity.com/threads/facebook-sdk-error-symbols-tool-failed-or-linker-errors.1009984/ Let me know if you have any experience with it.
