Unable to Compile AU for Mac

[Tania Ghosh]

@ospfeigrp Thank you so much :) ... Projucer built successfully... Now I will give it a try to Compile AU plugins with the default Projucer 5.4 that comes with HISE.

@ospfeigrp @d-healey After 7days AU plugins still not working...Unable to compile
Tried Projucer that comes with HISE. Tried Xcode 10 and 11... Tried every thing but ...No luck.
I'm totally frustrated and exhausted. A guy recently posted "Starting to use HISE is one of the biggest pains in the neck I've ever had"

For me it's like "Starting to build AU plugins for MAC platform is one of the biggest pains in the neck I've ever had"..

Ridiculous amount of time and Concentration invested no out come.

@Tania-Ghosh Have you searched the internet for the phrase "bad CPU type in executable"?

[Tania Ghosh]

@d-healey Found this...https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208050
But Xcode is still getting irritated..

[Tania Ghosh]

Even JUCE user having same issues...

@Tania-Ghosh open your terminal an try copy-pasting this

sudo xcode-select -switch /Applications/Xcode.app/

[Tania Ghosh]

@hisefilo Ok.... will let you know further.

[ospfeigrp]

@Tania-Ghosh a quick search of the forum revels this : https://forum.hise.audio/topic/2600/macos-catalina-rez-error-bad-cpu-type-in-executable

it solved my problems with xcode 10 on catalina

[Tania Ghosh]

@ospfeigrp The post Didn't clear me. So what do I do? what to copy and replace from Xcode12.app/Contents/Developer/usr/bin/Rez. ?

Can you demonstrate a little? in my XCODE.app (show package content) 10 there is no Rez folder. If I do wrong it will be a total mess. So can you help me? as I'm a new Mac user.

[ospfeigrp]

@Tania-Ghosh delete 'Rez' and 'Res merger' from Xcode10
then show contents of xcode12 and copy 'Rez' and Res merger' files and then back in xcode10 show contents and contents/Developer/usr/bin and paste the two files you just copy from Xcode 12

should be good to go then

@ospfeigrp Yeeeepieeee.....Compiled successfully. Uffff... what a Relief you can't imagine. My brother @Rudra-Ghosh gifted me Mac Air. Now I will make him proud. @ospfeigrp thank you so much.
One last question...Do I need to codesign? Because If I codesign it's throwing error. Without codesign it has been compiled.

Finally...in logic..

Thanks @tompower and @imagiro for the post

OK can any one post the Rez and Res Merger files from xcode 12 - I only have XCode 10 and I DONT want to over write it...

[Lindon]

....well the strangest of things......

So I was attempting to build an AU plugin for a project here:

Macintosh HD II/Nightfox/AnalogElectrics

and I got the Rez and Res merger problem

I moved my project to:

Untitled/AnalogElectrics

and it compiles correctly.

Untitled is a removable drive I use to transfer stuff between Windows and MacOS

So I'm mystified why this should work but it does....how very very odd.

Hi guys. Got a new MacBook Pro with MacOs Big Sur. I'm afraid to compile Hise. Will it work with this operating system?

[d.healey]

@nesta99 You tell me :)

[Sawer]

@d-healey Ahaha ! Also Thinking to downgrade on Mojave. Friday I'll be home from work. That will be the day that I'll make this software "SURGERY" ahaha

[Sawer]

Has anyone here compiled Hise on Big Sur?

[Dan Korneff]

@nesta99 nope

[A Former User]

@nesta99 I think XCode 10.3 doesn't play along nicely with Big Sur. I've read on a forum that you can get it to work somehow... but it is all a bit shaky...
