Unity Hololens debugging in Visual Studio with IL2CPP?












1














I am running Unity 2018.2 and when building my Hololens project with IL2CPP, in Visual Studio 2017 I can no longer see any output when Debug.Log is called from my project's C# scripts.



I believe my question is related to this other question What is the best way to debug IL2CPP code?.



I have followed these instructions https://docs.unity3d.com/2018.2/Documentation/Manual/ManagedCodeDebugging.html (Visual Studio (Windows)), the recommended tool installation for Hololens (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/install-the-tools) and the Hololens instructions on how to build a project in Unity (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/holograms-100).



Is there anything else that should be enabled to see the debug.log outputs when building with IL2CPP?

  • See Josh Peterson's response: "No, that is entirely possible.I forgot that the Hololens build generates two Visual Studio projects, one with the C# code and one with the generated C++ code. Before you build a Hololens player in the Unity editor, find any C# script in the project and double-click on it from the Unity editor "Project" tab. That should open the C# code in Visual Studio that you need."

  • When I build I actually only see one project in my build folder. Everything is cpp related and not c#, but I may be missing something. If I do this, "Before you build a Hololens player in the Unity editor, find any C# script in the project and double-click on it from the Unity editor "Project" tab. That should open the C# code in Visual Studio that you need", this opens the VS project and respective C# scripts, but not the VS solution that was built, which is what I use to deploy in the Hololens.

You don't actually need a debugger attached to see the output of Debug.Log calls. All of that output will go to the player log.



You may also want to try Debug.LogError, which will display the error message in an on-screen window in the player, when you have made a development player build.

  • Thanks Josh! What I usually do is to run my build in VS with Release>Start debugging and then I always got the Debug.Log messages in the output window. So you are saying that that is not possible anymore and I have to check the player log file?

  • I was unaware that Hololnes builds put the Debug.Log statements in the Visual Studio output window. If that stopped working with IL2CPP, that sounds like a bug then. Can you send us a bug report via the Unity editor?

A simple yellow flag (also called the "Yellow Jack") had historically been used to signal quarantine (it stands for Q among signal flags), but now indicates the opposite, as a signal of a ship free of disease that requests boarding and inspection. A quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of people; it is 'a restraint upon the activities or communication of persons or the transport of goods designed to prevent the spread of disease or pests', for a certain period of time. [1] This is often used in connection to disease and illness, such as those who may possibly have been exposed to a communicable disease.
