DontDestroyOnLoad not working in Unity 4.3

Questions & Answers

I just upgraded Unity3D from 4.1 to 4.3. I have a working project, and it doesnt work after the upgrade. The reason is a gameobject seems to be destroyed after I change the scene. Here is some codes:

public class GameDataObject:Object {
    public string name;
}

public class GameMainScript:MonoBehaviour {
    public static GameMainScript mainScript;
    public GameDataObject gameDataObject;

    void Start() {
        gameSataObject = new GameDataObject();
        gameDataObject.name = "ABC";
        DontDestroyOnLoad(gameDataObject);
        Application.LoadLevel("NewScene");
    }
}

In NewScene, I have a script:

Debug.Log(GameMainScript.mainScript.gameDataObject.name);

It shows “ABC” in Unity 4.1, but now in Unity 4.3, it shows “”.

Any idea? Thanks

Finally I made it works by changing

gameDataObject = new GameDataObject();

into

gameDataObject = ScriptableObject.CreateInstance<GameDataObject>();
