Hi @adibacco,

This is an issue relating to the External Dependency Manager. You should review your settings and make sure the needed cocoapods are being imported. My guess is it is failing to load, and you should see the errors when doing a Force Resolve if you look in the comments.

Hope this helps. If not, let me know your settings and log files and I will take another look, Nick

Hi @NVentimiglia , thank you for your support:

1. I'm compiling for Android why it is complainig about GoogleMobileAds.iOS.cpp
2. I omitted that I had to change the link.xml in GoogleMobileAds to fix another problem. I added these lines:

<assembly fullname="GoogleMobileAds.Unity" ignoreIfMissing="1" preserve="nothing">
</assembly>

3. The force resolve completes without any problem

See https://forum.unity.com/threads/3-building-error-code.1125641/ for a comment by Josh Peterson on the issue.

Dear @NVentimiglia , it is very easy to reproduce the problem. Just create a new 2D Unity project with Unity 2022.1.15f1, then, import GoogleMobileAds 7.1.0 You will find that it compiles fine. Now change the scripting backend from Mono to IL2CPP and you will get my same error.

@kimcollin , I didn't understand your message

[adibacco]

I also get the same problem with Unity 2022.1.15f1 importing GoogleMobileAds 7.2.0. My project is completely empty 2D project. If I select Mono as scripting backend it compiles fine, if I select il2cpp then I get the undefined errors.

[adibacco]

Hi @NVentimiglia , can we help you sorting out the problem like providing more info? It is very unlikely that a simple 2d project completely empty is not able to compile with IL2CPP?

[adibacco]

Anyone had some success ?

[adibacco]

And the Google leave us without any help?

[MuhammadWaqasOfficial]

try changing unity version. it is wise not to waste time.

[hippogamesunity]

The same error in 2022. Works fine in 2021.

[adibacco]

Any chance that this plugin will ever work with unity 2022? The problem is easy to reproduce:

@NVentimiglia are you looking at the problem? Would you like any info or help?

[Tokyomage]

I'm experiencing the exact same issue - has anyone been able to find a solution to this problem?

[adibacco]

I don't think Google is willing to give support or any help on this product. Better to choose an alternative to Google Mobile Ads Plugin for Unity.

Hi, just use Unity 2021.

[if1live]

I install Burst from unity package manager. undefined reference to GADUGetAdErrorCode compile error is resolved.

[catmuzzle]

The same error occurred in Unity 2022.2.2f1 and Burst v1.8.2. Non reproduced in Unity 2022.2.1f1 and Burst v1.7.4.

This issue is already fixed in 2021.3.18f1, 2022.2.5f1, 2023.1.0a21, and above.

@adibacco Hi, I`m having the same problem. I changed some stuff in link.xml file to solve another problem and then the same errors that you mentioned occured. Tried everything but no luck. Did you solve it?

Using Unity 2022.1.7f1

[NVentimiglia]

Hi

GADUGetAdErrorCode Is Google Mobile Ads Unity plugin code. This suggests to me that the '.a' file is not being included in the iOS build. Can you try reinstalling the package and verifying that the .a file is being included in the xcode project?
