6.3.0 fails to build with Objective-C.

[Lerg]

In 6.3.0 the structure (or bundling) of the framework was changed.

Before 6.3.0 the YandexMobileAds.h included everything:

#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAMobileAds.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAdView.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMABannerAdSize.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAdRequest.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAudioSessionManager.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAudioSessionManagerDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAReward.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAErrors.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAVersion.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAVideoController.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAVideoDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAImpressionData.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMABidderTokenLoader.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAGender.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAdTheme.h>

#import <YandexMobileAds/YMARewardedAd.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMARewardedAdDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMARewardedAdLoader.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMARewardedAdLoaderDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAInterstitialAd.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAInterstitialAdDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAInterstitialAdLoader.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAInterstitialAdLoaderDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAdRequestConfiguration.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAMutableAdRequestConfiguration.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAdRequestError.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAppOpenAdLoaderDelegate.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAppOpenAdLoader.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAAppOpenAd.h>

In 6.3.0 the YandexMobileAds.h includes only a small part of the SDK:

#ifndef YandexMobileAds_h
#define YandexMobileAds_h

#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAErrors.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAHorizontalOffset.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAVersion.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMANativeAdErrors.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMANativeAdView.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMANativeMediaView.h>
#import <YandexMobileAds/YMAGender.h>

#endif /* YandexMobileAds_h */

Which results in a breaking change, old ObjC projects fail to compile.

Changing #import <YandexMobileAds/YandexMobileAds.h> to #import <YandexMobileAds/YandexMobileAds-Swift.h> doesn't fix the issue. The app fails to link:

How to use the framework in an Obj-C app now? (it's an extension for a game engine)

[mobile-ads-github]

Try to add #import <YandexMobileAds/YandexMobileAds-Swift.h> next to your #import YandexMobileAds.h

Can your provide, swift and Xcode version and describe your project setup? It would be great, If you could provide a sample project, that reproduces the problem.

Sure.

1. Download and install the Defold game engine (free, no account is required) https://defold.com/download/

2. Download and extract the sample project attached to this message extension-yandexads-6.3.0.zip

3. Open Defold and open the extracted project (select game.project file)

4. In Defold open the game.project file and set your iOS bundle identifier

   

   Actually it might not be required if you just want to test the compilation.

5. Select menu Project -> Bundle -> iOS Application, choose your signing identity and provisioning profile and hit Create Bundle

   

6. After about 10 minutes of bundling you will see the error message

   

The relevant source code is in extension-yandexads/src/extension_ios.mm The Podfile is in extension-yandexads/manifests/ios/

This extension on github but with the 6.1.0 version of the SDK (this one works) https://github.com/Lerg/extension-yandexads

[mobile-ads-github]

Can you try to check it on the latest version of Defold?
