How do I build on AppleSilicon

[Naville]

Hey: I've downloaded z3 release for arm64-osx and followed the setup instructions, however:

clang++ -m64 -arch x86_64 -mmacosx-version-min=10.14 -isysroot /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX13.1.sdk -dynamiclib -compatibility_version 1.0 -current_version 1.0 -single_module -o ../../bin/plugins/goomba.dylib obj/x64_mac_clang_32/goomba.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/heuristics.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/smt_convert.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/linear_exprs.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/msynth_parser.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/bitwise_expr_lookup_tbl.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/optimizer.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/equiv_class.o obj/x64_mac_clang_32/file.o -L../../lib/x64_mac_clang_32/ -lida -Wl,-dead_strip -Wl,-map,obj/x64_mac_clang_32/goomba.dylib.map -Wl,-install_name,goomba.dylib -lpthread -liconv -L../../bin/ -lz3
ld: warning: ignoring file ../../bin//libz3.dylib, building for macOS-x86_64 but attempting to link with file built for macOS-arm64

I'm not sure why it's building for macOS-x86_64 and is not familiar with ida sdk's build system enough to fix it

Please try the ida-cmake PR I made. It would be a good test case as well.

From before, I know ida-cmake works for all platforms include Apple Silicon, so goomba should build equally.

If you got it working, report back please.

If you need help, let me know.

Yeah your PR works, I kept this issue to urge HR to do sth with your PR

Great, thanks for confirming.

Yes, my PR will be merged either tomorrow or next week. I see no reason why not.

you need to use __ARM__=1 for Apple Silicon build.
