Vst compile error

[Oriah Beats]

Hi guys, I just compiled Hise on macOS, and attempted to export My test VST but I encountered an error during the process. Could you help me identify what might be causing the issue?

@Oriah-Beats There isn't too much information to go off of here. Just a tip you can just copy the compiler's output and paste it within the code brackets using the symbol at the top here:

It just makes it a bit easier to read.

Are you able to compile any HISE projects? It would be best to try first with just a test project then you can deduce if the issue is with your HISE setup or with your project.

Are you using an Apple Silicon system?

[Oriah Beats]

@d-healey Yes I am using the Mac M1

[d.healey]

@Oriah-Beats Then I think it's something related to that because I see mention of x86_64 in the error message.

Are you using the develop branch?

here is the error

@Oriah-Beats said in Vst compile error:

Shared\ Code.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/include_hi_tools_02.o /Users/oriahphahlane/Documents/HISE\ Projects/Noise\ Reverb/Binaries/JuceLibraryCode/include_hi_tools_02.cpp normal x86_64

see this bit of text in your error messages?

 Shared\ Code.build/Objects-normal/x86_64/include_hi_tools_02.o /Users/oriahphahlane/Documents/HISE\ Projects/Noise\ Reverb/Binaries/JuceLibraryCode/include_hi_tools_02.cpp normal x86_64

See where it says x86_64 ??

That seems to mean you are trying to build an intel build on an M1 machine...

[Oriah Beats]

@Lindon thank you for the light. how can I best build my Hise to work well on an M1 Machine

[Lindon]

@Oriah-Beats

in the ProJucer file unselect the X86 options in the mac build.

[Oriah Beats]

@d-healey I am using the the Master Branch
