Editor Crash - BuildPipeline.BuildPlayer

Originator99 · April 21, 2024, 10:01am

I have been trying to build a custom build pipeline for my project. I created an editor window with a build button that calls UnityEditor’s BuildPipeline.BuildPlayer method to make a build targeting android platform.

Unity Version: 2022.3.14f1
Here’s my build code:

public static string[] GetFirstScene() {
            string[] scenes = new string[1];
            for(int i = 0; i < scenes.Length; i++) {
                scenes[i] = EditorBuildSettings.scenes[i].path;
            }
            return scenes;
        }
public static void BuildAndroid(string apk_name, string app_version, int bundle_version_code, bool is_prod = false) {
           
            PlayerSettings.Android.keystoreName = "myproject.keystore";
            PlayerSettings.Android.keystorePass = "password";
            PlayerSettings.Android.keyaliasName = "alias";
            PlayerSettings.Android.keyaliasPass = "password";
            PlayerSettings.Android.targetArchitectures = AndroidArchitecture.ARMv7 | AndroidArchitecture.ARM64;
            PlayerSettings.Android.bundleVersionCode = bundle_version_code;
            PlayerSettings.bundleVersion = app_version;
            string extension = is_prod ? "aab" : "apk";
            if(!Directory.Exists("../xbuilds/"))
                Directory.CreateDirectory("../xbuilds/");
            if(!Directory.Exists($"../xbuilds/{apk_name}/"))
                Directory.CreateDirectory($"../xbuilds/{apk_name}/");
            BuildPipeline.BuildPlayer(GetFirstScene(), $"../xbuilds/{apk_name}/{apk_name}.{extension}", BuildTarget.Android, BuildOptions.None);
        }

Here’s the issue: Whenever I run my tool, editor crashes. Weirdly the build process is fine when I access the usual build flow of going under “File-> Build Settings-> Build”.
Here’s the crash log:

Solutions that I have already tried are:

Reimporting all the assets
Upgrading unity to latest LTS (from 2022.3.14f1 → 2022.3.25f1)
Deleted Library & Temp folders from the project

Try calling BuildPlayer by itself and then start adding the changes to build settings until you find the one that crashes.

Also check if GetFirstScene does what it is supposed to. It may be returning an array with null entries perhaps.

Hi, Thanks for responding to my issue,

I Called BuildPlayer separately in a single line with hard coded parameters and still crashes the unity editor.
Moreover, I did check GetFirstScene() method earlier and returns what’s required. It does not return any null values.
