Unity Cloud Build - AndroidManifest.xml ignored
Hi all,
I've been facing a strange issue. I've checked many posts about fixing the manifest in Cloud Build, but these attempts are unsuccessful as it looks like it's a different issue. My previous builds had a manifest with Camera permission (intended). Now, I need a version without this camera permission.
This is the situation:
Changed manifest to remove all permissions that I wish to remove
No code is calling WebCamDevices in the project
Building from the local editor results in a manifest with no permissions (all good!)
Building from Cloud Builds results in the exact same manifest as before (all previous permissions)
Doing a Clean Build still uses that older manifest, and does not solve the problem
I have deleted all plugins and no longer have a Plugins folder
I have deleted all AndroidManifests.xml in the project, same result
My guess is that:
Unity Cloud Build is using a previously cached manifest, like it does in Temp/StagingArea (as any changes I do aren't reflected, like adding new permissions etc)
I can't find a way to force Cloud Build re-generate a new manifest
IN PROGRESS: I have a preprocess script that will attempt to delete Manifest in Temp/StagingArea before the build, but I don't believe it will be able to find and delete it (says file doesn't exist in local builds, even though it does). It's building right now, we'll see if this works.
I actually had the same issue in local builds, and had to manually delete Temp/StagingArea/AndroidManifest.xml in order for my new changes to manifest to be applied in my local builds as well.
Is there any way of forcing Cloud Builds to re-generate the AndroidManifest.xml file ? Clean Builds don't do the trick. I could disable caching entirely, but this would do it for all branches of the project, and we have many branches and I don't want to slow down all build times to many hours instead of minutes.
Would it work to disable cache library for that build only, then re-enable it? Would this issue re-occur on other branches of the project (all linked to different UCB targets)?
Thanks, Charles
It seems like formatting is broken: I had made paragraphs and lists to make the post more readable but it doesn't seem to be working, even after editing the post...
