Unity 2018.2 and 2018.3 IL2CPP build failure cannot find Assert.h

FolkvangStudios · April 24, 2019, 12:07pm

The Game used to do Windows il2cpp builds no problem. This started happening after I switched to UWP builds from the plain Windows/Linux… build type. Now that I’m back to the standard PC builds it doesn’t work.

I’ve done a fresh install of Unity and Visual studio. Completely wiped them from my system and user profile. Then installed.
Deleted the Library folder for the game.

Unhandled Exception: Unity.IL2CPP.Building.BuilderFailedException: Il2CppTypeDefinitions.cpp

Can you try the C++ compiler invocation directly? I believe it is:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\bin\HostX64\x64\cl.exe" "E:\My_Games\Games\Panda\Animal Friends Adventure\Temp\StagingArea\Data\il2cppOutput\Il2CppTypeDefinitions.cpp" /nologo /c /bigobj /W3 /Zi /EHs /GR- /Gy /wd4102 /wd4800 /wd4056 /wd4190 /wd4723 /wd4467 /wd4503 /Ox /Oi /Oy- /GS- /Gw /GF /Zo /MT /DNET_4_0 /DUNITY_JIT /DGC_NOT_DLL /DRUNTIME_IL2CPP /D_WIN32 /DWIN32 /DWIN32_THREADS /D_WINDOWS /DWINDOWS /D_UNICODE /DUNICODE /D_CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS /D_SCL_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS /D_WINSOCK_DEPRECATED_NO_WARNINGS /DNOMINMAX /D_NDEBUG /DNDEBUG /DWINDOWS_SDK_BUILD_VERSION=18362 /DWINAPI_FAMILY=WINAPI_FAMILY_DESKTOP_APP /I"F:\Unity2018.2\Editor\Data\il2cpp\libil2cpp" /I"F:\Unity2018.2\Editor\Data\il2cpp\external\boehmgc\include" /I"E:\My_Games\Games\Panda\Animal Friends Adventure\Temp\StagingArea\Data\il2cppOutput" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\shared" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\um" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\winrt" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\ucrt" /Fo"E:\My_Games\Games\Panda\Animal Friends Adventure\Library\il2cpp_cache\13ED4606D84998D6E33E2AD500CD22FE.obj" /Fd"E:\My_Games\Games\Panda\Animal Friends Adventure\Library\il2cpp_cache\13ED4606D84998D6E33E2AD500CD22FE.pdb"

It sounds like something is wrong with the Visual Studio or Windows SDK installation. It also might be worthwhile to ensure that these directories exist on you computer:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include
C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\shared" /I"C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\um

Not the solution most people want to hear but…

All these folders existed. As I said above, I reinstalled everything. In the end I did an OS reset to my Windows 10 machine then installed everything fresh starting with Visual Studio 2015 (for some reason UWP needs this installed and doing nothing).

Then I installed the raw base Visual Studio 2017 with Unity 2018.3.

After freshly building the project and opening it in VS2017, there was an option in the right click of the sollution to “install required SDK’s” and stuff. I chose that option.

The solution finally built with success. UWP is very delicate and requires exact, no more, no less.

JoshPeterson i have the same issue here, everytime i build.

Stacktrace:
il2cpp.exe didn’t catch exception: Unity.IL2CPP.Building.BuilderFailedException: Il2CppTypeDefinitions.c

I’m trying to update visual studio right now, but i feel that there is no escape.
After that i try the @FolkvangStudios solution.

JoshPeterson · June 6, 2020, 11:32am

I’m not sure, sorry! Can you build a C++ project in Visual Studio (unrelated to Unity)? That might be a good indication if the Visual Studio installation is sane or not.

RakNet · June 28, 2020, 2:39pm

Solution is here:

Briefly, you need to install the Windows 10 SDK 10.0.10240.0 using the Visual Studio Installer.

Nanorock · July 7, 2020, 1:57pm

I’m now having suddenly the same issue. I’m baffled because yesterday I made like 10 builds. And today it just does not work failing with this ‘assert.h’ issue.
I tried installing Windows 10 SDK 10.0.10240.0, but that did not solve the problem
I’m not a C++ programmer so I’m quite lost, and reinstalling OS is not really an option -_-

Edit: It seems to be looking for SDK 10.0.18362.0, which is not even proposed by VS2017. I found it the archive . I’ll report if that solve the issue. But I don’t understand why this would need a different SDK version than yesterday, I don’t remember upgrading VS

I’m now having suddenly the same issue. I’m baffled because yesterday I made like 10 builds. And today it just does not work failing with this ‘assert.h’ issue.
I tried installing Windows 10 SDK 10.0.10240.0, but that did not solve the problem
I’m not a C++ programmer so I’m quite lost, and reinstalling OS is not really an option -_-

The error:

Does any empty project build with IL2CPP work on this machine now?

It does now,
Installing Windows 10 SDK SDK 10.0.18362.0 fixed it.
The fact it suddenly needed this version (while it’s not even the latest) is a mystery to me.
I had no manual software update.
So my guess is that anyone having similar issue should check the log, and verify they have the correct SDK folder.

I’m having this issue in Unity 2019.4.16f1, however, it does actually build from the command line fine, however, now that the intermediary cpp files have generated, I don’t know how unity would compile the cpp to ML. How should I go about figuring out this step?

If it’s helpful, this was the compilation command with flags:

"C:\Program Files\Unity\Hub\Editor\2019.4.16f1\Editor\Data\il2cpp/build/deploy/net471/il2cpp.exe" --convert-to-cpp --emit-null-checks --enable-array-bounds-check --dotnetprofile="unityaot" --compile-cpp --libil2cpp-static --platform="WindowsDesktop" --architecture="x64" --configuration="Release" --outputpath="D:\Documents\Drexel\SeniorProject\Resilience\Temp/StagingArea/Data\Native\GameAssembly.dll" --cachedirectory="D:\Documents\Drexel\SeniorProject\Resilience\Assets\..\Library/il2cpp_cache" --incremental-g-c-time-slice=3 --profiler-report --map-file-parser="C:/Program Files/Unity/Hub/Editor/2019.4.16f1/Editor/Data/Tools/MapFileParser/MapFileParser.exe" --directory=D:/Documents/Drexel/SeniorProject/Resilience/Temp/StagingArea/Data/Managed --generatedcppdir=D:/Documents/Drexel/SeniorProject/Resilience/Temp/StagingArea/Data/il2cppOutput

I’m unsure what you mean by this, can you elaborate?

looytroop · February 10, 2021, 2:08pm

Of course, sorry I wasn’t clear. I was building in Unity for Windows within the Unity Engine GUI. And as I saw above, you had recommended to try invoking the C++ compiler directly, as opposed to through the engine.

In the cmd prompt, I invoked the compiler and the output was this:

Ok, thanks! Then what error do you get when building from the Unity editor?

This is very odd. Can you try running the C++ compiler executable directly from the command line?

You will need to do this when the Editor is running after you trigger the error in the editor. I wonder if you will see the same error in this case.

looytroop · February 10, 2021, 3:04pm

I just tried running what you sent and nothing seems to have been output. It simply executed and returned with no output. What is this meant to output? Is it possible I didn’t run the command at the proper time?

looytroop · February 10, 2021, 3:06pm

It may be worth noting, that I have my cmd line automatically configured to run the following upon opening.

call “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Auxiliary\Build\vcvarsall.bat” x64

JoshPeterson · February 10, 2021, 3:27pm

A lack of output probably means it worked. Can you try to run without that set? I suspect that is setting up some environment variables that may be allowing this to work.

looytroop · February 10, 2021, 6:36pm

I started up the command prompt without the call to setup vcvarsall and it did not work. I got the same error as when running within Unity.

So does assert.h exist in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.18362.0\ucrt directory?
