#if UNITY_IPHONE code runs when played in Editor

for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++) {
#if UNITY_IPHONE
Debug.Log(“iPhone Only”);
#endif
Debug.Log(i);
}

I would have expected the iPhone Only not to print in the editor, but it does, which is extremely annoying, but more troubling is that it only prints 1 out of the 6 times in this IF statement. Why?

You want to use

#if UNITY_IPHONE && !UNITY_EDITOR

arrgh... too late x)

It should also be possible to use logic operators in preprocessor directives like this:

#if UNITY_IPHONE && !UNITY_EDITOR

The editor will define UNITY_IPHONE when the build platform is set to iOS.

If you don’t want this to happen you should just add this line:

if(!Application.isEditor),The Editor will run code with UNITY_IPHONE defined when you’re build platform is set to iOS. If you don’t want this to happen you can simply add a non-preprocessor statement like this:

if(!Application.isEditor)

That's good to know, but still doesn't answer the question: Why does the code above result in the following Debug Log output: iPhone Only 0 1 2 3 4 5 I expect it to produce something more like: iPhone Only 0 iPhone Only 1 iPhone Only 2 iPhone Only 3 iPhone Only 4 iPhone Only 5

from the code you included I would expect the latter to be the output. So I'm not sure what's happening there. Is that the exact code you're using? if not please include the actual code.

It's because you have "collapse" turned on in the console.
