Mac OS with M1 encounters with an error when using its dylib

[MidCoard]

ld: warning: ignoring file /opt/homebrew/Cellar/glew/2.2.0/lib/libGLEW.2.2.dylib, building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64

Will GLEW support macOS-arm64? if it supports,when?

I wouldn't expect any particular difficulty for supporting the M1. But I don't have one, so can't be sure without others to confirm.

Please!!! Thanks!!!

It appears that you have correctly installed an arm64 build of GLEW to /opt/homebrew. And I assume the error that you cite is showing up while building some other software, but this other software has been compiled for x86_64. So this other software is not compatible with the arm64 GLEW.

You can verify that /opt/homebrew/Cellar/glew/2.2.0/lib/libGLEW.2.2.dylib is indeed arm64, by running file /opt/homebrew/Cellar/glew/2.2.0/lib/libGLEW.2.2.dylib. It should output Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64.

Will GLEW support macOS-arm64? if it supports,when?

As far as I can see, GLEW supports arm64 on macOS just fine.

I see. It seems that it is my mistake.

My whole project just codes with GLFW and GLEW. I just use some of the OpenGL.

my IDE is Clion.Maybe it is because Clion doesn't support ARM now ?

Is there anyone that can confirm/test a GLEW 2.2.1 release candidate for ARM Mac? I have an Intel MBP, but would be unable to do any runtime testing.

[mbechard]

I can confirm the visualinfo and glewinfo applications work after building everything from scratch on the M1.
