Resolved Issues with bitcode

Hello everyone,

I am having a issue with bitcode, when I try to build using Cloud Build I get the following error:

Code (CSharp):

1. 1237: [2023-01-09T19:53:27.781Z] - 7.2.4.2.7.4 - INFO: ❌;  ld: '/BUILD_PATH/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Unity-iPhone-aucdquakdojdtygyeoppkevqhqmj/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/Unity-iPhone/BuildProductsPath/Release-iphoneos/XCFrameworkIntermediates/GoogleAppMeasurement/WithoutAdIdSupport/GoogleAppMeasurement.framework/GoogleAppMeasurement(APMAdExposureReporter.o)' does not contain bitcode. You must rebuild it with bitcode enabled (Xcode setting ENABLE_BITCODE), obtain an updated library from the vendor, or disable bitcode for this target. file '/BUILD_PATH/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/Unity-iPhone-aucdquakdojdtygyeoppkevqhqmj/Build/Intermediates.noindex/ArchiveIntermediates/Unity-iPhone/BuildProductsPath/Release-iphoneos/XCFrameworkIntermediates/GoogleAppMeasurement/WithoutAdIdSupport/GoogleAppMeasurement.framework/GoogleAppMeasurement' for architecture arm64

I have a script in my Editor to disable it on post build, but apparently is not working, can please somebody advice what is wrong? thanks

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEditor;
2. using UnityEditor.Build;
3. using UnityEditor.Build.Reporting;
4. using UnityEngine;
5. using UnityEditor.iOS.Xcode;
6.  
7.  
8. class Test: IPostprocessBuildWithReport
9. {
10.     public int callbackOrder { get { return 0; } }
11.     public void OnPostprocessBuild(BuildReport report)
12.     {
13.         if (report.summary.platform == BuildTarget.iOS)
14.         {
15.             string projectPath = report.summary.outputPath + "/Unity-iPhone.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj";
16.  
17.  
18.             PBXProject pbxProject = new PBXProject();
19.             pbxProject.ReadFromFile(projectPath);
20.  
21.  
22.             //Disabling Bitcode on all targets
23.  
24.  
25.             //Main
26.             string target = pbxProject.GetUnityMainTargetGuid();
27.             pbxProject.SetBuildProperty(target, "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
28.  
29.  
30.             //Unity Tests
31.             target = pbxProject.TargetGuidByName(PBXProject.GetUnityTestTargetName());
32.             pbxProject.SetBuildProperty(target, "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
33.  
34.  
35.             //Unity Framework
36.             target = pbxProject.GetUnityFrameworkTargetGuid();
37.             pbxProject.SetBuildProperty(target, "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
38.  
39.  
40.             pbxProject.WriteToFile(projectPath);
41.         }
42.  

 

Also this doesn't work:

Code (CSharp):

1. using UnityEditor;
2. using UnityEditor.Build;
3. using UnityEditor.Build.Reporting;
4. using UnityEngine;
5. using UnityEditor.iOS.Xcode;
6.  
7.  
8.    [PostProcessBuild(999)]
9.     public static void OnPostProcessBuild(BuildTarget buildTarget, string path)
10.     {
11.         if (buildTarget != BuildTarget.iOS)
12.         {
13.             return;
14.         }
15.         var projPath = PBXProject.GetPBXProjectPath(path);
16.         var project = new PBXProject();
17.         project.ReadFromFile(projPath);
18.         var mainTargetGuid = project.GetUnityMainTargetGuid();
19.         foreach (var targetGuid in new[] {mainTargetGuid, project.GetUnityFrameworkTargetGuid()})
20.         {
21.             project.SetBuildProperty(targetGuid, "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
22.         }
23.         project.WriteToFile(projPath);
24.     }

 

solved by adding
bitcodeEnabled="false"
to
GoogleMobileAdsDependencies

 

Okay, so since this thread is among the top 5 in the google search here is my fix disabling bitcode for the project and all targets:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. [PostProcessBuild]
3. public static void OnPostProcessBuild(BuildTarget buildTarget, string builtProjectPath)
4. {
5.     if (buildTarget != BuildTarget.iOS)
6.     {
7.         return;
8.     }
9.  
10.     var projectPath = PBXProject.GetPBXProjectPath(builtProjectPath);
11.     var project = new PBXProject();
12.     project.ReadFromFile(projectPath);
13.  
14.     //...
15.  
16.     project.SetBuildProperty(project.ProjectGuid(), "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
17.  
18.     //...
19.  
20.     project.WriteToFile(projectPath);
21. }
22.  

 

where we have to place this script in the project

 

Actually anywhere it suits best you.

For example you can create a new static class and place it there:

Code (CSharp):

1.  
2. public static class MyXCodePostProcessingClass
3. {
4.    [PostProcessBuild]
5.    public static void OnPostProcessBuild(BuildTarget buildTarget, string builtProjectPath)
6.    {
7.        if (buildTarget != BuildTarget.iOS)
8.        {
9.            return;
10.        }
11.        var projectPath = PBXProject.GetPBXProjectPath(builtProjectPath);
12.        var project = new PBXProject();
13.        project.ReadFromFile(projectPath);
14.        //...
15.        project.SetBuildProperty(project.ProjectGuid(), "ENABLE_BITCODE", "NO");
16.        //...
17.        project.WriteToFile(projectPath);
18.    }
19. }
20.
