I'm trying to Unity Cloud build to iOS and I get this error a lot when it tries to build. Happenes several times in the build out put
[Unity] Assets/Photon/PhotonUnityNetworking/Code/Editor/PhotonEditorUtils.cs(180,20): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'PrefabStageUtility' does not exist in the namespace 'UnityEditor.Experimental.SceneManagement' (are you missing an assembly reference?)

Hi @MomasVII,
What Unity version is this?
What PUN version is this?
"Assets/Photon/PhotonUnityNetworking/Code/Editor/PhotonEditorUtils.cs"
did you move this file from its original path?
"Assets/Photon/PhotonRealtime/Code/Editor/PhotonEditorUtils.cs"
also looks like you use a Unity version between 2017.1 and 2020.2 but we need to know which version...
I haven't moved the file.
I'm using PUN2.20 and Unity 2019.3.10f
I see, I suggest you do a clean import of latest PUN 2: delete Assets\Photon folder then download and import latest PUN 2.
To fix the error if you can't update:
/// <summary>
/// Check if a GameObject is a prefab asset or part of a prefab asset, as opposed to an instance in the scene hierarchy
/// </summary>
/// <returns><c>true</c>, if a prefab asset or part of it, <c>false</c> otherwise.</returns>
/// <param name="go">The GameObject to check</param>
public static bool IsPrefab(GameObject go)
{
#if UNITY_2018_3_OR_NEWER
return UnityEditor.Experimental.SceneManagement.PrefabStageUtility.GetPrefabStage(go) != null || EditorUtility.IsPersistent(go);
#else
return EditorUtility.IsPersistent(go);
#endif
}
You can ignore the other warnings.
You should update PUN and Unity.
We fixed the obsolete code references.
The error PhotonEditorUtils.cs(180,20): error CS0234: The type or namespace name 'PrefabStageUtility' does not exist in the namespace 'UnityEditor.Experimental.SceneManagement' is a non-problem in 2019.4.13, so I'd recommend moving to the LTS versions.
Did you every get this issue resolved? I am currently having the same issue with Unity 2020.3.6f1.
I have the exact same error. Unity Version 2020.3.61f
I went in and checked the file location "Assets/Photon/PhotonRealtime/Code/Editor/PhotonEditorUtils.cs" and the code change you posted above is already what is in there.
I tried to delete and reimport Photon and still the same error.
Should I just remove that portion from the script when it comes to PrefabStageUtility?
Looking forward to hearing back.
Thank you!
I think this is a problem with that Unity Editor version.
I opened PUN 2.36 (which is 2.35 plus unrelated changes, not released here) in 2020.3.11f1 and there is no problem with this API. So .. for some reason, it seems Unity doesn't reference it in some versions.
Let us know if this solves the problem or not. I might want to check if that version has a different path for the class or something. Can't find bug reports about this missing...
I changed the following in the PhotonEditorUtils.cs to this and it built fine with Cloud Build. No errors like shown in the original post.
public static bool IsPrefab(GameObject go)
{
#if UNITY_2018_3_OR_NEWER
return EditorUtility.IsPersistent(go);
#else
return EditorUtility.IsPersistent(go);
#endif
}
Is getting rid of the following going to cause any issues down the line?
return UnityEditor.Experimental.SceneManagement.PrefabStageUtility.GetPrefabStage(go) != null || EditorUtility.IsPersistent(go);
Looking forward to hearing back and wrapping this up for anyone else that might have an issue.
Thank you,
It is a problem in Cloud Build then? Is the Cloud Build using the same version of Unity to build?
I thin the special code for 2018.3 and up is covering some specific issues but I don't recall which one. Would have to check some logs.
