Crash at il2cpp::vm::MetadataCache::Initialize()

[michael-martinez]

When trying to build the application and to encapsulate the didFinishLaunchingWithOptions call in the framework (when pressing a button on the test application), the application crashes on the call.
I am using Unity 2017.4.1f1, Xcode 10.0.

The logs are the following :
.�

According to some info gathered here, it should be due to the Unity code not finding a file name 'global-metadata.dat' in a Data/Managed/Metadata directory but I have no clue on where to put it, the Data/ folder is a reference to the one located in the framework folder as in the repository.

Try add -DINIT_SCRIPTING_BACKEND=1 -DRUNTIME_IL2CPP=1 in Other C Flags in Unity Out Framework Project

Try to delete Data folder and add with folder references again.

Try to change
UnityInitApplicationNoGraphics([[[NSBundle mainBundle] bundlePath] UTF8String]);
by:
NSBundle * bundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]];
UnityInitApplicationNoGraphics([[bundle bundlePath] UTF8String]);

how about change the mach-o type of the framework from static to dynamic, maybe it works.
