Random TypeLoadException error when using IJobParallelForBatch

I am getting the following exceptions when using IJobParallelForBatch in my jobified physics solver.
I am assuming it is a bug as it is random, happens around 70% of the time.
The batched job is only calling a native method, but the exceptions get thrown even if I comment out the job body (including its fields)

Code (CSharp):

1. TypeLoadException: Recursive type definition detected
2. Unity.Jobs.JobHandle:ScheduleBatchedJobsAndComplete(JobHandle&)
3. Unity.Jobs.JobHandle:Complete() (at C:/buildslave/unity/build/Runtime/Jobs/ScriptBindings/JobHandle.bindings.cs:20)
4. DefKit.SequentialGaussSeidelSolver:SubStepPhysics(Single, Int32, SolverSystem[], JobHandle) (at Assets/DefKit/Core/Dynamics/Solver/SequentialGaussSeidelSolver.cs:315)
5. DefKit.SequentialGaussSeidelSolver:StepPhysics(Single, Int32) (at Assets/DefKit/Core/Dynamics/Solver/SequentialGaussSeidelSolver.cs:180)
6. DefKit.SequentialGaussSeidelSolver:Update() (at Assets/DefKit/Core/Dynamics/Solver/SequentialGaussSeidelSolver.cs:79)

 

The same problem. Can anybody explain this error?
Thanks!

 

For some reason that I cannot fathom at this time, IJobParallelForBatch does not allow for multiple similar type declarations at the job level.

This means that we cannot have, for example, two different ints declared, even as readonly, at the same type.

That was what caused the issue for me when I encountered this error.

It even happens across Native Containers! I cannot have a NativeArray, and a NativeHashMap have a struct declared at the same time.

It is permissible, however, to have a struct declared, that has multiple similar declarations.

EDIT:: Oddly, after updating to 2018.2.2f1, I stopped encountering this error. Maybe I just needed to restart Unity, or maybe there was an actual problem.

 

Same problem here.
jobs 0.0.7-preview-6

 

This seems to happen for me if the job is running when my scripts reload. Since the exception seems to break the job, that means my jobs work every other C# compile.

 

Same issue with Jobs preview - 0.1.1

 

It seems like there are some race conditions since sometimes everything works just fine

And then gets followed by

I am not sure if it will remain if I cut some fragments of my project. Besides, since it doesn't appear all the time, it may be really hard to catch. Hope the stack traces will help the investigation. Also, there's a bunch of "TypeLoadException: Recursive type definition detected" with no stack trace nor any other details at all.

 

I just sent the report with the title "Recursive type definition detected"

 

It's 1180844

 

Is there an update on this issue? I'm still seeing it every few builds.
