runtime: JSON deserialization fails in iOS release build if class implements an interface
Description
A simple JSON deserialization using Newtonsoft.Json fails on iOS in a release build as soon as the class that is trying be be de-serialized implements an interface.
The same app works in Debug build in the iOS simulator as expected.
Reproduction Steps
-
Create a new iOS app with
dotnet new ios -
Set a valid bundle identifier that allows installing the app on a physical device
-
Add this code to the project:
public class ProductImage : IEntity { public string ProductNumber { get; set; } public Guid Id { get; set; } } public interface IEntity { Guid Id { get; set; } }During startup, run this code:
var x = @"{ ""productNumber"": ""P1"", ""id"": ""46c67d7c-fd15-4d89-9fed-991c48c1bacf"" }"; var pi = JsonConvert.DeserializeObject<ProductImage>(x); -
Build the app for a device:
dotnet publish testapp.csproj -f:net6.0-ios -c:Release /p:CodesignKey="Apple Development: ******" /p:CodesignProvision="Test app" /p:ArchiveOnBuild=true -r ios-arm64 --self-contained -
Deploy to device and run
Full project file:
<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk">
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>net6.0-ios</TargetFramework>
<OutputType>Exe</OutputType>
<Nullable>enable</Nullable>
<ImplicitUsings>true</ImplicitUsings>
<SupportedOSPlatformVersion>13.0</SupportedOSPlatformVersion>
</PropertyGroup>
<ItemGroup>
<PackageReference Include="Newtonsoft.Json" Version="13.0.1" />
</ItemGroup>
</Project>
Self-contained example project: https://github.com/markuspalme/dotnetruntime-75802
Expected behavior
The app starts successfully and manages to de-serialize the JSON regardless of whether the class implements an interface or not.
Note that removing the interface will make the de-serialization work as expected.
Actual behavior
JSON deserialization fails with this exception:
Error setting value to 'Id' on 'testapp.ProductImage'.
Regression?
The same code works in Xamarin.iOS.

@sbomer Here you go: https://github.com/markuspalme/dotnetruntime-75802/raw/master/repro.zip
@markuspalme would you be able to try this tool by @vitek-karas to see if you can obtain a repro? https://github.com/vitek-karas/illinkrepro
You’ll need to clone it on the machine where you ran the publish command and obtained the binlog. Then inside of the cloned directory, do
dotnet run -- create path/to/msbuild.binlog. It tries creates areprodirectory containing the linker command-line and input assemblies. If you can share that with us, it would be very helpful.
