EXC_BAD_ACCESS when using the sdk with firebase

[AlyAmeen]

Hello,

I have encountered an issue trying to use the plugin with Unity 2018.4.10, the issue is the plugin runs if I add it to an empty project, but when I add it to my project that has firebase with it and build it for IOS, XCode gives the following error :

EXC_BAD_ACCESS at #0 0x0000000105a5b660 in google::protobuf::internal::(anonymous namespace)::InitSCC_DFS(google::protobuf::internal::SCCInfoBase*) at /Users/jballoffet/Documents/PublicBuild/Crosscompilation/Latest/iOS/protobuf/src/google/protobuf/generated_message_util.cc:778

So I think protobuf is having a conflict with one of the plugins I have in the project, the plugins I have in the project :
Vuforia,Firebase,Tour360

my best guess is that it's Firebase having the same plugin and trying to initialize it twice, but I can't find the dll of protobuf anywhere else in the project and if I delete it, an error occur, so any idea of how to fix this ?

Thanks in advance

This is a hard one to debug, and I need more information to identify the issue.

1. When does this happen? During compile or during runtime? Does this happen before the app starts or after your splash screen shows up?
2. Can you post the full stacktrace here? I believe there is more to this than the single "at line".
3. Have you tried not to initialize your Firebase? would that work?

@cdytoby Also happening here.
Using Unity 2018.4.15f1 with firebase in the project.

The error happens when trying to open the app, it throws this error and doesn't open

This is all there is in the logs.

I haven't tried without firebase in the project.

While trying it out myself, I'll mark it as help wanted.

@Dankann @AlyAmeen

Which firebase packages did you use? there are many of them.

Note for me: https://firebase.google.com/docs/unity/setup#add-sdks-upm

Firebase has unity package manager support.

Hi! I'm having the same problem in iOS. @cdytoby
I've read your developer statement regarding that you've stopped active maintenance and switched to intermittent check to this repository. Thankyou for your hard work for this repo and I wish you good luck for what's to come.

I'm using unity 2018.4 and firebase 6.14 (also tried 6.16.1 with the same result).
I've also tried enabling zombie objects in Xcode without result.
The package I'm using is:

• Function
• Storage
• App (Core)
• Auth
• Messaging
• Crashlyrics
• Analytics

Here is my backtrace from lldb

Other than that I've realised that the same GoogleProtobuf can exist in the project without any compile issues. this plugin (Assets/Cardboard/Plugins/GoogleProtobuf.dll) and GVR obsolete SDK (Assets/GoogleVR/Plugins/Google.ProtocolBuffers.dll) is it the same case with firebase libraries? "Different dll name but same compiled object class name in runtime"

Though there wouldn't possibly be a fix in the near future, I would really appreciate if you can provide any leads on what's the root cause what should I try to help progress on this issue.
