Problem importing package on Windows

[Matt Schoen]

Hey guys, 

Just to let you know, I get an error when importing the package on windows:

Assets/BrassMonkey/Demo Assets/dpadTest.js(25,45): BCE0019: 'GetDisplayObject' is not a member of 'Object'. 

Deleting the file resolves the issue, but this is obviously not ideal ;)

Thanks for the heads up!

A little further information: It seems that this only happens when the editor is in Android mode (not sure about iOS or other platforms).  It seems to work just fine in Standalone. Granted, using BM kind of implies that we're not making a mobile game, but in this case, we want to support both (make that everything!)

Getting Brass Monkey to run as a host on iOS and Android is a priority this week. We know there's at least one threading bug on iOS at the moment that causes it not to work correctly. We will be addressing that and will keep you updated on that progress.

Thanks as always for all the help and feedback as you are going through implementing in your game Matt. You rock!

This specific error seems to be a result of the lack of type annotations on the parameter of the UpdateLayout functions in the dpadTest.js. If it is added (becoming UpdateLayout(layout : BMControlLayout) ), it compiles properly in Android. I am not entirely why this only occurs on Android. I imagine that other platforms perform more sophisticated type inference or do some sort of runtime lookup. I largely try to avoid the use of pseudo-javascript in Unity for these sorts of reasons.

I will make sure the fix is in future releases of the sdk.
