iPhone "Ambiguous reference" error

Aubrey-Falconer_1 · October 22, 2008, 9:39pm

The following line of code works perfectly in desktop Unity:

Network.Connect(remoteIP, port);

In iPhone Unity, it gives the following error:

Assets/Scripts/Core.js(424,48 ): BCE0004: Ambiguous reference ‘Connect’: UnityEngine.Network.Connect((String), int), UnityEngine.Network.Connect(String, int).

I am really looking forward to some iPhone specific documentation. How could a reference be Ambiguous?

Your remoteIP prob returned an array of IPs’

The (String) as apposed to String means an array of. Are you sure you are not passing the function multiple IP’s?

Thanks Seon!

It turned out to be that I wasn’t explicitly declaring remoteIP as a String.

If only that error message was a bit less ambiguous
