Client api throws exception when I call constructor

Hi,
would you mind adding more details?
Such as the API version, Unity version, which DLL you're using (we ship three), the code that crashes.

Thanks

[anton melegov]

Unity 5.1.0f3. Smartfox Version: 1.6.0 C# API. The code is so simple:

Code: Select all

            try
            {
                _smartFox = new SmartFox(true);
            }
            catch (Exception e)
            {
                Debug.LogException(e);
                return;
            }

Can you send your test project by email?
Also, when do you get that error? When running the project in the Unity Editor or publishing it to the device?

[anton melegov]

It is not a test project I cannot send it for u, sorry. In editor all works fine. Issue was appeared after client API was updated to new version. Previous version was working with same code

[Lapo]

Can you create a small basic project and see if it gives you the same issue?
If it's not reproducible there might be something else going on.

Thanks

I was sent a email on support@smartfoxserver.com

Doesn't work with stripmode enabled. Try to avoid using reflection. Please fix

[Lapo]

Unfortunately this is not possible as reflection is an integral part of the API and allows for exchange of custom defined types between client and server.

[anton melegov]

Sad =(

[Lapo]

In all fairness the difference between Level 3 stripping and No-Stripping with our Advanced Connector is a meager 900Kb.
I don't think it's worth being sad

[anton melegov]

Did you compare builds on WebGL platform with stripping disabled|enabled? In real project it will be hundreds of megabytes difference between

[Lapo]

I don't think I understand your comment.
The stripping level deals with code not assets. How can it possibly generate hundreds of megabytes of compiled code?

You asked if we compared the WebGL export. Yes we did.
I have tested the official Unity demo called Survival Shooter:
https://unity3d.com/learn/tutorials/pro ... al-shooter

It produces 108MB of data with no stripping and 108MB of data with Stripping level 3. No difference.

Similarly it produces a minor difference for Android build, roughly 2MB of difference for a 50MB apk file.

cheers
