HISE crashes when loading my project

[Oli Ullmann]

Okay, I always create a backup of the last working HISE version before compiling a new one. This one still works! Unfortunately, the commit is not displayed in HISE, but since I compiled it on December 21, 2025, I assume it is commit 6ba56cc. That is the last one that works for me.

Could it be that my xCode version is too old for the current HISE version?
I am working with xCode version 14.3.1 (14E300c).

@Oli-Ullmann said in HISE crashes when loading my project:

I assume it is commit 6ba56cc.

Compile it and see ;)

Okay, I cloned HISE again with git clone https://github.com/christophhart/HISE.git then switched to the corresponding commit with git reset --hard 6ba56cc and recompiled HISE. (I used git clone without the new commands because I don't need the JUCE 8 elements for the old commit.)

HISE still does not show me any commit information. When I enter git commit in the console, I only see the following text: Your branch is behind 'origin/develop' by 80 commits.

Maybe this is because Christoph created an initial commit on January 8.

Anyway, everything works with the commit 6ba56cc. With later commits, I can no longer compile plug-ins from HISE. I have no idea why this is and can only assume that it might be due to my xCode version. Because the xCode projects created with the current HISE version cannot be opened with xCode.

So maybe I should update it. Which xCode version are you using, Dave?

@Oli-Ullmann I'm not sure which one I'm using at the moment, just try the latest one supported by your OS version: https://xcodereleases.com/

@David-Healey
I'll do that.

@Oli-Ullmann Ah damn it, that was on me. There was a small typo in the DLL template that creates the Projucer file which messed up the Xcode project generation. The CI didn't catch it because it exports a standalone version of the demo project...

It's fixed now, let me know if you have other issues on macOS.

@Christoph-Hart
I tested it and both the compilation of a VST instrument and the compilation of DSP networks work perfectly. Thank you very much! :-) I will test the compilation of an AU instrument in the next few days and give feedback.

There is another bug:
When I want to create a new project and that project already exists in the folder where I want to create the project, HISE simply crashes without an error message.
