ILPostProcessor causes DLL's that link to UnityEngine.UI.dll to fail and be unloaded on import

Scripting

-

How to reproduce:
1. Open attached project "1TestMirror.zip"
2. Right click the TestScript in the project
3. Select Reimport

Expected result: No errors and TestLib.dll is not unloaded
Actual result: Errors appear in the console and TestLib.dll be unloaded from the project

Reproducible with - 2020.3.9f1
Could not test (ILPostProcessor errors) - 2018.4, 2019.4, 2021.1, 2021.2

  1. Resolution Note:

    Since 2019.2 UnityEngine UI module is shipped as a package built for .net standard. The built-in DLL we shipped before was built for .net framework 4.0. That means that they use a different base class library and are not binary compatible.
    Any library built referencing the old dll must be rebuild referencing the new one or it will fail to run properly.

    It has nothing to do with IL PostProcessing as removing all packages doing IL Post Processing still trigger the error.
