Getting build target information from an asset bundle #6
Description
Activity
I don't think BuildTarget is serialized in the archives. I can't find anything in src, that would tell me that we do.
Target Platform is saved in the header of the SerializedFiles inside an AssetBundle. But so far as I know this is not currently exposed by UnityDataTool or binary2text.
I'm introducing a "serialized-file" command in #47 That could be a good place to also expose the target platform.
However we have to do more work to:- Either update Unity to expose it in the UnityFileSystem API (e.g. UnityFileSystem\DllWrapper.cs)
- Add code to parse the header of the serialized file directly in UnityDataTools (not so easy, because the file format is complicated and has a lot of backward compatibility considerations)
I forgot to close this ticket. This is now supported using the "serialized-file metadata"
To get the target of an AssetBundle it would be necessary to extract the files and then look at the metadata of the serialized file inside the AssetBundle. Sorry its not a single step process, but it does reflect how its actually stored and we will continue to add more info and easier usability bit by bit.
I'd like to know if it's possible to use UnityDataTools for loading a built asset bundle and figuring out what is the BuildTarget it was built for.
I've looked at the example projects that are included in this repo but could not find any examples of such usage.
