Question #if UNITY_STANDALONE_WIN doesnt working?

hello I need help

I'm trying to use the "#if UNITY_STANDALONE_WIN" detection system as it says in the manual (https://docs.unity3d.com/2022.3/Documentation/Manual/PlatformDependentCompilation.html)

however, the IF code doesn't work and leaves my code completely disabled. all in grey. I've looked in several tutorials and I can't get it to work correctly. Does anyone know what it could be? I use version 2022.3.0 LTS

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Diagnostics;
2. using System.Globalization;
3. using UnityEngine;
4.  
5. public class _Initialization : MonoBehaviour
6. {
7.     private string GetDebuggerDisplay()
8.     {
9.         return ToString();
10.     }
11.  
12.     private void Start()
13.     {
14. #if UNITY_STANDALONE_WIN
15.         CultureInfo currentCulture = CultureInfo.CurrentCulture;
16.         string languageCode = currentCulture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName;
17.         Debug.Log(languageCode);
18. #endif
19.     }
20.  
21. }

 

Looks correct to me. Are you set to Windows builds in Unity? Make sure you build settings in Unity is targeting windows.

 

Also make sure it's not just a case of Visual Studio not getting the message.

Like type some gibberish in the gray code and see if Unity howls in anger.

This may help you with intellisense and possibly other Visual Studio integration problems:

Sometimes the fix is as simple as doing Assets -> Open C# Project from Unity. Other times it requires more.

Other times it requires you also nuke the userprefs and .vsconfig and other crufty low-value high-hassle files that Visual Studio tends to slowly damage over time, then try the above trick.

Barring all that, move on to other ideas:

Also, try update the VSCode package inside of Unity: Window -> Package Manager -> Search for Visual Studio Code Editor -> Press the Update button

True, I've sometimes switched build targets and VS doesn't grey out or colorize the proper code. Usually just closing VS and opening it will fix it when it gets like this.

 

Thanks, but none of the answers helped me. I looked at deep links, but without success.

The strange thing is that this code works normally in version 2021.3.17f1.

 

did not work. Tried restarting, reinstalling, redoing everything. nothing worked

 

well... I'm going back to the 2021 LTS version while I wait for new updates.
I thank everyone

 

It works just fine to me


I normally use Rider, but I've booted up VS just to check up on it.
Make sure the Visual Studio Editor package is updated.
Make sure that Visual Studio itself is fully up to date.

Close visual studio if it is open.
Go to the Editor Preferences External Tools and make sure that Visual Studio is selected.


Also the click the Regenerate project files button.
After that open up any script from the project window.

You can wait a long time on 2021 LTS but it seems to work just fine in 2022 LTS and doesn't need fixing.
