| Summary | 0001458: Error On Subsequent Package Import | ||||
| Description | I always get the error message shown (encl. erroronpackageimport.png) when I import a newer version of Noesis. I am currently having to delete the DLL, which causes problems for assets, which sometimes need to be rebuilt as a result. | ||||
| Platform | Any | ||||

Confirmed this happens with 2.2.3. Error.PNG (11,063 bytes) |

We have contacted Unity many times about this. It is an awful limitation of native plugins in Unity. If you import a new package that tries to overwrite a native library (Noesis.dll) that is being used by Unity you will get that error, the package will be imported but you will have a mix of the new package and old one and the chances of crashing are high. Aren't you getting a message (from our plugin) about restarting Unity? We try to detect that scenario and recommend restarting Unity. It is also commented in the Unity tutorial. Although I think we should put more emphasis in that: "Although not strictly necessary we recommend closing Unity and removing the folders '/Assets/NoesisGUI/Plugins and '/Assets/NoesisGUI/Samples' before installing a new version of NoesisGUI" |

I didn't get to the restart message -- I think because I chose force quit and then deleted the files. I completely accept this as a limitation of Unity and I'm able to work around it. |

Unity limitation, can't fix. |
