Hi Ricardo, 

 

Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support. 

 

Unfortunately, the image link you have updated in the forum is broken. So we request you to share us the exception details once again, which will be helpful for us to investigate further on this and provide a prompt solution at the earliest.

Hi Ricardo,  

  

Thanks for your updates. 

 

We are unable to reproduce the reported issue at our end. We request you to check any of the following options to resolve this issue. 

 

 

1	Run the project in the “Release” mode.
2	When using Syncfusion.XlsIO.Portable library in iOS application, the following settings must be done to execute in iOS devices. Visual Studio:  In Visual Studio, we can only execute in release mode for iOS device by setting the link behavior field to Link SDK assemblies only. Xamarin Studio (Recommended):     Link behavior: Link SDK assemblies only (otherwise classes you need in Syncfusion.XlsIO.Portable.dll are linked away).          Enable debugging: Unchecked (this is to create a smaller binary, since adding debug information makes it somewhat bigger).          Applying these settings will execute the application properly in iOS device.     You might face the following issues, if the above mentioned build options are missed out.     You might get "Native linking error" while compiling.     You might face runtime Exception ("System.TypeInitializationException").       You can also refer to the ReadMe file for older Xamarin Studio version in the following link.  ReadMe for Xamarin Studio (older version): http://www.syncfusion.com/downloads/support/directtrac/general/ReadMe1200983097.zip
3	From the Xamarin forum https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/59267/system-executionengineexception-sigill  There is a solution to skip this issue by setting one of the following registrar options to the additional mtouch arguments in the project's iOS Build options:    ·         --registrar:static : default for device builds  ·         --registrar:dynamic : default for simulator builds  ·         --registrar:legacystatic : default for device builds until Xamarin.iOS 7.2.1  ·         --registrar:legacydynamic : default for simulator builds until Xamarin.iOS 7.2.1

 

Please let us know that whether the above option resolve the issue. If you still experience the issue, we request you to share the following details which will help us to validate on this and provide a prompt solution at the earliest. 

 

1	Xamarin version?  iPhone 5 iOS version?  iPhone 6 iOS version?
2	Code snippet used in the program.
3	Confirm us if you can run Syncfusion’s sample browser (Xamarin). If the sample browser runs proper and deploy the samples in devices, then there is no issue with the library. You may need to revisit your project to resolve this.

 

Please let us know if you need any clarification.

Once again thx for responding. The solution for me is to run in release mode or uncheck the enable debugging, this for the iphone 5 because when running in iphone 6 everything works fine. The problem with this, is that, it becomes hard to detect problems.

Hi Ricardo, 

 

Thank you for updating us. 

 

This issue has been raised in iPhone 5 due to larger assembly size. We have reported the issue to Xamarin team and they have given the workaround solution which we have shared in the last update. This issue has been rectified in sixth-generation devices.
