| This directory contains useful resources for getting gRPC C# to work on |
| platforms that are not yet fully supported. |
| |
| # Xamarin |
| |
| gRPC C# now has experimental support for Xamarin. |
| See [HelloworldXamarin](/examples/csharp/HelloworldXamarin) for an example how to use it. |
| |
| What's currently supported: |
| |
| Xamarin.Android |
| - supported API level: Kitkat 4.4+ (= API level 19) |
| - supported ABIs: `armeabi-v7a` (vast majority of Android devices out there), |
| `arm64-v8a` (some newer Android devices), `x86` (for emulator) |
| |
| Xamarin.iOS |
| - supported architectures: arm64 (iPhone 6+) and x86_64 (iPhone simulator) |
| |
| # Unity |
| |
| gRPC C# now has experimental support for Unity. Please try using gRPC with |
| Unity and provide feedback! |
| |
| How to test gRPC in a Unity project |
| 1. Create a Unity project that targets .NET 4.x (Edit -> Project Settings -> Editor -> Scripting Runtime Version). gRPC uses APIs that are only available in .NET4.5+ so this is a requirement. |
| 2. Download the latest development build of `grpc_unity_package.VERSION.zip` from |
| [daily builds](https://packages.grpc.io/) |
| 3. Extract the `.zip` file in the `Assets` directory in your Unity project |
| 4. Unity IDE will pick up all the bundled files and add them to project automatically. |
| You should be able to use gRPC and Protobuf in your scripts from now on. |
| |
| What's currently bundled in the `grpc_unity_package` |
| - Grpc.Core and its dependencies |
| - Google.Protobuf |
| - Precompiled native libraries for Linux, MacOS, Windows, Android and iOS. |
