How do I run this on a mac? #77

Closed CoderOfPythonCode closed 2 months ago

I don't know how to run this on mac and I would love some advice, nvm I figured it out

Either it must be compiled for mac, or you could try using the windows binary "crossover" style.

Personally I don't have access to any kind of mac OS X type of machine, which is also why I've not provided a build target for that when I do releases. If someone can come up with what changes are needed in the .github/workflow file (and very likely in the cmake files/other sources too) I could gladly add that, but I don't have any means to test it - which is why I cannot reliably support it either.

Oh I take it back, i got a new pc with ubuntu and windows, all good

you might use macports to install the prerequisites After installing macports: sudo port -N install cmake wxWidgets-3.2 imagemagick sudo port select --set wxWidgets wxWidgets-3.2 maybe also possible via homebrew … then build as described here: https://github.com/GrandOrgue/GoOdf#building-from-sources

Oh I figured it out, it's more simple than that it's more like brew install wxwidgets, and instead of using the latest release which has a bunch of errors use v8

If someone figures out what changes are needed (in workflow file, cmake file and/or other source files) to publish releases of GoOdf ported to Mac here on GitHub (and also has the means to actually test them), I'll be happy to add it as long as it doesn't causes issues for the other platforms. But as I said earlier, I have no possibility to test/verify any ports to Mac myself.

Ok.

MStraeten commented 6 months ago

you might try this build: GOODF.zip built with deployment target 11.3 for arm64 (not codesigned) since all dependencies are present on my mac i can't check if all were properly integrated into the package - so please give feedback if it properly works. then i can compile the steps into a macports based build & packaging script that can be provided here ...

Please, focus the efforts into what changes are needed in the cmake file (CMakeLists.txt) in the root to be able to create a macOS build with the .github/workflows/release.yml file like GrandOrgue does to create the osx.x86_64.dmg release file (or whatever works to use on macOS).

Since version 0.13.0 there are now builds released for MacOS with both Intel and arm64 architectures.
