[OSX][WWW] www.bytes returns null on mac
How to reproduce:
1. Open the attached project
2. Open and play test scene
Actual result: notice NullReferenceException in console
Expected result: www.bytes returns bytes and AssetBundle is loaded
Issue doesn't exist on Windows. Also it is not related to AssetBundles, I have tried loading text file, www.bytes still returns null.
Reproducible: 2017.1.0b1
Not reproducible: 2017.1.0a6
By Design:
This is because we made WWW to be a wrapper on top of UnityWebRequest and we are sticter in terms of URL validation.
This line is correct in Windows, but not OSX:
wwwPath = "file:///" + Application.streamingAssetsPath + "/iOS/" +assetBundleName;
because it result in Uri with 4 slashes after file:.
The correct way for this is:
new Uri(Application.streamingAssetsPath + "/iOS/" +assetBundleName, UriKind.Absolute).AbsoluteUri
This would result in proper URI under both Windows and OSX.

I am having this exact problem. The "solution" is as cryptic as the problem itself.
I can get www.bytesDownloaded but not www.bytes[] .
Why is this "by design" ?
Please update the api document as needed.
