unsupported config type: {configProcessAttribute.ConfigType}

Error message

unsupported config type: {configProcessAttribute.ConfigType} {configType.FullName}

What it means

Thrown by LoadOneConfig when a config type's ConfigProcessAttribute.ConfigType is not ConfigType.Code. LoadOneConfig only handles code-mode configs (it expects to build the category from C# code via a factory); other config kinds (e.g. binary/proto asset-loaded configs) are loaded through a different path and must not reach this method.

Solutions

1. Filter config types by ConfigProcessAttribute.ConfigType == ConfigType.Code before calling LoadOneConfig (the caller should route non-Code types elsewhere).
2. Correct the attribute on the offending config type if it should be Code.
3. Ensure the loader's dispatch matches the set of ConfigType values produced by codegen.

Example fix

// before — LoadOneConfig called for every config type
foreach (Type t in configTypes) LoadOneConfig(t, factories, loaded);

// after — route by ConfigType
foreach (Type t in configTypes)
{
    var attr = (ConfigProcessAttribute)t.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(ConfigProcessAttribute), false)[0];
    if (attr.ConfigType != ConfigType.Code) continue; // handled elsewhere
    LoadOneConfig(t, factories, loaded);
}

var attr = (ConfigProcessAttribute)t.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(ConfigProcessAttribute), false)[0];
if (attr.ConfigType != ConfigType.Code) { /* route to non-code loader */ return; }
ConfigLoaderHelper.LoadOneConfig(t, factories, loaded);

static bool IsCodeConfig(Type t)
{
    var attr = (ConfigProcessAttribute)t.GetCustomAttributes(typeof(ConfigProcessAttribute), false).FirstOrDefault();
    return attr != null && attr.ConfigType == ConfigType.Code;
}

When it happens

Trigger: GetConfigTypes() returns all types marked with ConfigProcessAttribute; LoadOneConfig is invoked for each, but one was authored/marked as a non-Code config type (e.g. ConfigType.Asset or similar) and was incorrectly routed into the code-loading path.

Common situations: A config category's attribute was changed from Code to another type but the loader dispatch still calls LoadOneConfig for it; a new config kind was added without updating the loader's routing logic; misconfigured ConfigProcessAttribute during codegen.
