Difference between "Compile project" and "Export as..."

[daniloprates]

I'm just finishing my first plugin, so I'm new to the exporting process.

What's the difference between choosing Compile project and Export as..., apart from a different UI (one has a built-in terminal pop-up and the other opens the external terminal)?

@daniloprates The result is exactly the same. Export As is the "old way" the Compile Project dialog is the new, more user friendly way, but it's buggy so I just stick with Export As.

Thanks, @David-Healey!

@David-Healey when I try to build for AAX in HISE, I get an error, while in Xcode I can build successfully and have more control over it.

Is there a way to just generate the jucer and the xcodeproj files, without actually building them in HISE?

What is the error?

HISE doesn't do the building. It generates a juicer project and uses xcode to build it.

@David-Healey when I try to export as AAX on HISE, I get this error:

❌   "AAXStartup(IACFUnknown*)", referenced from:
❌   "AAXShutdown(IACFUnknown*)", referenced from:
❌   "AAXCanUnloadNow(IACFUnknown*)", referenced from:

❌ ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64
❌ clang++: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

When I then open the Xcode project and compile it, it works. So I was wondering if there is an option in HISE to generate the Projucer and Xcode files without compiling them

Press ctrl/cmd+C to cancel the build in the terminal. Then in the binaries folder open the auto generated juicer file. But I think it's better you figure out the cause of the error. Looks like something to do with arm vs x86
