Special considerations for Unity support (original) (raw)

When using the AWS SDK for .NET and .NET Standard 2.0 for your Unity application, your application must reference the AWS SDK for .NET assemblies (DLL files) directly rather than using NuGet. Given this requirement, the following are important actions you will need to perform.

You need to obtain the AWS SDK for .NET assemblies and apply them to your project. For information about how to do this, see Download and extract ZIP files in the topicObtaining AWSSDK assemblies.
You need to include the following DLLs in your Unity project alongside the DLLs for AWSSDK.Core and the other AWS services you're using. Starting with version 3.5.109 of the AWS SDK for .NET, the .NET Standard ZIP file contains these additional DLLs.
If you're using IL2CPP to build your Unity project, you must add a link.xml file to your Asset folder to prevent code stripping. The link.xml file must list all of the AWSSDK assemblies you are using, and each must include the preserve="all" attribute. The following snippet shows an example of this file.

<linker>  
    <assembly fullname="AWSSDK.Core" preserve="all"/>  
    <assembly fullname="AWSSDK.DynamoDBv2" preserve="all"/>  
    <assembly fullname="AWSSDK.Lambda" preserve="all"/>  
</linker>

Note

In addition to these special considerations, see What's changed for version 3.5 for information about migrating your Unity application to version 3.5 of the AWS SDK for .NET.
