iOS Cloud Build - error: use of '@import' when modules are disabled

Hi there,

I've been attempting to produce an iOS build through Unity Cloud Build to no avail. Below is the log.

I've searched around and it seems as though this error "error: use of '@IMpoRt' when modules are disabled" is thrown because the "Modules (C and Objective-C)" build setting isn't enabled in Xcode - however seeing as I'm using Cloud Build, I do not have access to this setting.

Is there a way around this?

Note: I am using the following plugins

• Google Play Services
• Google AdMob

 

Hi David,

I went ahead and updated the plugins. I've also updated the project to Unity 5.1.1. I am no longer getting the original error but now I'm getting this:

! .xcworkspace file could not be found.

Hi all.

I'm having the same issue trying to build an iOS app using the cloud.
The error is the following:

Code (CSharp):

1. 16186: [Unity] Cleanup mono
2. 16187: [Unity] Unloading native extension module for target: iOS

Thanks in advanced.

PS: The local build is working perfectly.

 

Hi again, more info...
I can see in the log:

Code (CSharp):

1. pod executable not found: /usr/bin/pod

I don't know if it can be part of the error or not.

 

I have the same issue, building locally works fine though. Has a solution to this been found?

 

The .xcworkspace errors are related to attempts to use the cocoapods 'pod install' command as part of the build process, which Unity Cloud Build doesn't currently support. The manual method of installing the SDK frameworks should be used instead, followed by adding a post-export method to enable modules and eliminate those @IMpoRt errors you were seeing.

1. Add the Google Ads resources to the project manually as they existed before.
2. Below is an example PostBuildProcessor.cs script to post-export manipulate Xcode build settings. This code uses the Xcode Manipulation API to flip the switch for enabling modules. Note: If you already have a post-export method in use, just add the code you see in ProcessPostBuild method that manipulates Xcode project settings.

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using UnityEditor;
3. using UnityEditor.Callbacks;
4. using System.Collections;
5. #if UNITY_IOS
6. using UnityEditor.iOS.Xcode;
7. #endif
8. using System.IO;
9. using System.Linq;
10.  
11. public class PostBuildProcessor : MonoBehaviour
12. {
13.     /**
14.      * Runs when Post-Export method has been set to
15.      * 'PostBuildProcessor.OnPostprocessBuildiOS' in your Unity Cloud Build
16.      * target settings.
17.      */
18.     #if UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD
19.     // This method is added in the Advanced Features Settings on UCB
20.     // PostBuildProcessor.OnPostprocessBuildiOS
21.     public static void OnPostprocessBuildiOS (string exportPath)
22.     {
23.         Debug.Log("[UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD] OnPostprocessBuildiOS");
24.         ProcessPostBuild(BuildTarget.iPhone,exportPath);
25.     }
26.     #endif
27.  
28.     /**
29.      * Runs after successful build of an iOS-targetted Unity project
30.      * via the editor Build dialog.
31.      */
32.     [PostProcessBuild]
33.     public static void OnPostprocessBuild (BuildTarget buildTarget, string path)
34.     {
35.         #if !UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD
36.         Debug.Log ("[LOCAL BUILD] OnPostprocessBuild");
37.         ProcessPostBuild (buildTarget, path);
38.         #endif
39.     }
40.  
41.     /**

51.     {
52.         // This code will set modules to enabled in Xcode build settings
53.         #if UNITY_IOS
54.  
55.         Debug.Log ("[UNITY_IOS] ProcessPostBuild - Xcode Manipulation API");
56.  
57.         // Go get pbxproj file
58.         string projPath = path + "/Unity-iPhone.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj";
59.  
60.         // PBXProject class represents a project build settings file,
61.         // here is how to read that in.
62.         PBXProject proj = new PBXProject ();
63.         proj.ReadFromFile (projPath);
64.  
65.         // This is the Xcode target in the generated project
66.         string target = proj.TargetGuidByName ("Unity-iPhone");
67.  
68.         // Here we go: Set 'Enable Modules' to YES to prevent errors using @import syntax
69.         Debug.Log("Enabling modules: CLANG_ENABLE_MODULES = YES");
70.         proj.AddBuildProperty(target, "CLANG_ENABLE_MODULES", "YES");
71.  
72.         // Write PBXProject object back to the file
73.         proj.WriteToFile (projPath);
74.  
75.         #endif
76.     }
77. }
78.  

After building locally and opening the generated Xcode project, 'Enabled Modules (C and Objective-C)' should be set to 'YES' appropriately.

3. On the settings page for your Unity Cloud Build target, add a UNITY_CLOUD_BUILD Scripting Define Symbol and specify the Post-Export Method Name as 'PostBuildProcessor.OnPostprocessBuildiOS'.

At this point, the project should build successfully without @IMpoRt errors.

Edit: Added the using directives at the top of the .cs script.
Edit 2.0: Simplified read/write calls against Xcode manipulation API.

 

Hey,
I am having the same problem when trying to build for ios:
2959: + Installing cocoapods:
2960: ! .xcworkspace file could not be found.
2961: ! build of 'default-ios' failed. compile failed

Android build succesfully...
I added the code unitychrism gave to my project, still not working.
I dont know if it s relevant but I am using unity ads and the google game service.
Hope to get help with that

Gonzalo Perretti did you found a solution to this?
(I added the full log output)

 

Hi, yes (I followed the unitychrism advice), I added the framework manually and removed the code that was referencing to cocoa pods in the file "GPGSPostBuild.cs" :

1. 
   
   Code (CSharp):

   1.  
   2. /*
   3.             //Copy the podfile into the project.
   4.             string podfile = "Assets/GooglePlayGames/Editor/Podfile.txt";
   5.             string destpodfile = pathToBuiltProject + "/Podfile";
   6.             if (!System.IO.File.Exists(destpodfile))
   7.             {
   8.                 FileUtil.CopyFileOrDirectory(podfile, destpodfile);
   9.             }
   10.             GPGSInstructionWindow w = EditorWindow.GetWindow<GPGSInstructionWindow>(
   11.                 true,
   12.                 "Building for IOS",
   13.                 true);
   14.             w.minSize = new Vector2(400, 300);
   15.             //w.UsingCocoaPod = CocoaPodHelper.Update(pathToBuiltProject);
   16.             */

Also I'm using my own postprocess script.

Folder structure and postprocess files are attached. Postprocess files should stay in the Editor folder under Assets.

I hope this helps.

 

unitychrism, I fixed the cocoa pods error and now I getting a new error:

Code (CSharp):

1.    [xcode] clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)
2. 8709:        [xcode] Showing first 200 notices only

8. 8715:        [xcode] (2 failures)
9. 8716: ! build of 'unity-iphone' failed. compile failed

Could you help me with this error?

 

Yes. I'm using Google Play.

 

The locals builds are working fine and also I can upload the builds to testflight using the Application Loader. But I dont know what is causing the error in the cloud... I cant delete the plugins's code, because its working properly.

Some other idea?

 

Nothing about postExport error but I found the following:

Code (CSharp):
