Update README with macOS build instructions
We do have Intel macOS builds and I guess @Flow86 could add builds and downloads for arm64 too.
I can't, I think there were some issues cross compiling some of the dependencies and/or getting the arm64 build to work
I pulled the repo again and now I get this error if I try to compile:
luigi@M4:~/Documents/GitHub/s25client/build$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ..

Ok I did recurse. Now building starts but stopps here (9%):

This is this issue: https://github.com/boostorg/move/issues/61
I'm wondering why warning inside system libs are triggered though. /usr/local/include should be exempt from warnings.
Got it!
cmake .. \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew" \
-DCMAKE_IGNORE_PATH="/usr/local" \
-DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-std=c++17 \
-Wno-error=missing-noreturn \
-Wno-error=deprecated-copy \
-Wno-error=unused-parameter \
-Wno-error=undef \
-Wno-error=cast-qual" ..
make -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
- with -std=c++17 it compiles 10 times faster
- adding -DCMAKE_IGNORE_PATH="/usr/local" (because in build process it accessed /usr/local which was wrong because /opt/homebrew is provided for arm64
- Wno-error excludes seems to be essential. If I deleted one of these lines compiling fails''
If anyone of your team has a M device could test my build:
https://www.slsoft.de/s25client/
Wno-error excludes seems to be essential. If I deleted one of them compiling fails''
Can you use -DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=OFF and post the list of those warnings please?
with -std=c++17 it compiles 10 times faster
I can't see how: We already compile RTTR with C++17 so I don't see what difference this makes especially not 10x. Any idea?
adding -DCMAKE_IGNORE_PATH="/usr/local" (because in build process it accessed /usr/local which was wrong because /opt/homebrew is provided for arm64
Can you explain that? What is accessed exactly?
Without
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew"
I get
[ 5%] Generating gen/languages/rttr-ko.mo
/opt/homebrew/bin/msgmerge: ld: warning: ignoring file '/usr/local/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.dylib': found architecture 'x86_64', required architecture 'arm64'
by the way now I don't need to exclude /usr/local explicit for some reason ... strange.
Ok without C++17 Parameter it compiles now as the same speed. Don't know what was the problem before that it was kinda slow.
If i put only
-DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=OFF
it drops this error and stopps (it accessed /usr/local which is wrong?):
In file included from /usr/local/include/boost/container/detail/advanced_insert_int.hpp:42:

Ok so all warnings are from inside Boost in /usr/local. However it finds a homebrew Boost:
-- Found Boost: /opt/homebrew/lib/cmake/Boost-1.89.0/BoostConfig.cmake
This shouldn't happen but could explain the warnings. Do the paths in the config files under /opt/homebrew/lib/cmake/Boost-1.89.0 somehow refer to /usr/local?
I also can't see where the -Werror is added if not by -DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=ON
How exactly is your s25 alias defined? Does it really set -DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=OFF?
But most important is the Boost-location thing. If you run with make VERBOSE=1 V=1 you should see the compiler invocation. Is the include path to Boost passed correctly or is it followed by some include path to /usr/local?
with -std=c++17 it compiles 10 times faster
if you set CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS manually, its removing all predefined optimizations
All in
/opt/homebrew/lib/cmake
points to ../../Cellar. Ok so far.

Here I added logs from all scenarios. The given cmake parameters are at the top.

And by the way .... with
cmake .. \
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew" \
-DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=OFF ..
it compiles fine now. If I try without the PATH of homebrew it fails.
One important thing: To get the dylib linkings in the .app "independent" I do this:
cd s25client.app/Contents/MacOS
dylibbundler -of -cd -b -x s25client -d "libs" -p "@executable_path/libs/"
dylibbundler -of -cd -b -x starter -d "libs" -p "@executable_path/libs/"

install_name_tool -add_rpath "@loader_path/../../libs" libaudioSDL.dylib
install_name_tool -add_rpath "@executable_path/libs" libaudioSDL.dylib
Ok without C++17 Parameter it compiles now as the same speed. Don't know what was the problem before that it was kinda slow.
Just seen you are using ccache in the builds so the 10x might be because of the warm ccache cache and the relation to adding that flag just chance. Would then have been the same when removing the flag after initially adding it.
All in
/opt/homebrew/lib/cmakepoints to ../../Cellar. Ok so far.

Is it possible that Boost isn't properly installed? Can you try cmake with -DBoost_VERBOSE=ON -DBoost_DEBUG=ON?
Also check that there is /opt/homebrew/Cellar/boost/1.89.0/include and /opt/homebrew/Cellar/boost/1.89.0/lib/cmake/boost_system-1.87.0/boost_system-config.cmake as well as the content of that file?
And by the way .... with
cmake .. \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew" \ -DRTTR_ENABLE_WERROR=OFF ..it compiles fine now. If I try without the PATH of homebrew it fails.
So I guess your system isn't arm64 then?
Anyway great it worked!
One important thing: To get the dylib linkings in the .app "independent" I do this:
We use a CMake module for that for our releases. It gets activated with -DRTTR_BUNDLE=ON which should do this fixup upon install. I.e. you need -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=<path> and install with make install after build

I see, that's not a compiled library anymore which might be the reason. Check e.g. boost_headers. I'm looking for something like: get_filename_component(_BOOST_INCLUDEDIR "${_BOOST_CMAKEDIR}/../../../" ABSOLUTE) and where it sets _BOOST_CMAKEDIR to find out what it is supposed to pass as an include folder.
I see -isystem /opt/homebrew/include and the cmdline but still including /usr/local/include/boost/iostreams/stream.hpp
Is there a /opt/homebrew/include/boost/iostreams/stream.hpp?
Do you have /usr/local/include set in your $CPATH?
I'm on an ARM System here (M4 Max).
So you are supposedly compiling for the same system you are on? Or is this not an arm64 system? Otherwise I don't understand how the files like /usr/local/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.dylib /usr/local/Cellar/libsamplerate/0.2.2/lib/libsamplerate.dylib don't contain symbols for the architecture they are installed for. Any ideas?
I tried the "make install" method and got this:
Found an open issue for this: https://discourse.cmake.org/t/unable-to-resolve-rpath-not-found/5325 -.-
Looks like in CMake 3.21 we can use install(RUNTIME_DEPENDENCY_SET but that requires a few more changes
I recognized that pkg-config was not installed for arm64. Did it now.
Than in .bashrc only this was there:

changed it to

This here is an arm64 System. Apple Silicon is always arm64.
Ok so the files are there but not used for some reason. Did you check $CPATH as I suggested above? Maybe even search the whole env: env | grep /usr/local/include
You can try to reproduce with a MWE:
-
echo '#include <boost/iostreams/stream.hpp>' | /usr/bin/c++ -xc++ -E --std=c++17 -isystem /opt/homebrew/include - - or:
echo '#include <boost/iostreams/stream.hpp>' | /usr/bin/c++ -xc++ -E --std=c++17 -arch arm64 -isystem /opt/homebrew/include - - and directly:
/usr/bin/c++ -xc++ -E -v -isystem /opt/homebrew/include - < /dev/null
The first 2 should somewhere in the output show the filepath to stream.hpp actually used. The last one should print a list of paths used in order of usage and some information why some are used (or not)
This here is an arm64 System. Apple Silicon is always arm64.
Then there must be a problem with this specific system: Why would x86 system files be installed there:
ld: warning: ignoring file '/usr/local/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.dylib': found architecture 'x86_64', required architecture 'arm64' ld: warning: ignoring file '/usr/local/Cellar/libsamplerate/0.2.2/lib/libsamplerate.dylib': found architecture 'x86_64', required architecture 'arm64'
Is it possible that those files were copied from another system?
That's my CPATH:

No the files are fresh from brew. I have /usr/local too because I did crosscompiling for another apps/projects as Universal Binary. Installed it with
arch -x86_64 /usr/local/bin/brew install XYZ
Ok, that helps a lot.
That's my CPATH:
That seems to be your $PATH not $CPATH, note the "C". The output you posted (part below) looks like /usr/local is in there:
#include <...> search starts here:
/usr/local/include
/opt/homebrew/include
Remove that and it should take the correct boost headers.

I'm not so used to macos multi-arch but it seems /usr/local is for the x64 (rosetta) files and /opt/homebrew for arm. So that is expected and we need CMake to search the arm folder first. You can do that with CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/opt/homebrew (as you did) or (according to ChatGPT, I don't have a Mac) by running the arm CMake (/opt/homebrew/bin/cmake) which should search the arm folder instead of /usr/local.
Got it!
cmake .. \ -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \ -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH="/opt/homebrew" \ -DCMAKE_IGNORE_PATH="/usr/local" \ -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-std=c++17 \ -Wno-error=missing-noreturn \ -Wno-error=deprecated-copy \ -Wno-error=unused-parameter \ -Wno-error=undef \ -Wno-error=cast-qual" .. make -j$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu)
- with -std=c++17 it compiles 10 times faster
- adding -DCMAKE_IGNORE_PATH="/usr/local" (because in build process it accessed /usr/local which was wrong because /opt/homebrew is provided for arm64
- Wno-error excludes seems to be essential. If I deleted one of these lines compiling fails''
If anyone of your team has a M device could test my build:

What do I need to clear for it to run the client?
You can’t use this version of the application “s25client” with this version of macOS.
this is arm binary, but compiled for macos 26.0
used command:
otool -l s25client | grep -A3 LC_BUILD_VERSION
and got output:
cmd LC_BUILD_VERSION
cmdsize 32
platform 1
minos 26.0
Ok I tried something. Putting
export MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=12.0
in the top of my compile script.
luigi@M4-2:~$ otool -l /Users/luigi/Documents/GitHub/s25client/build/s25client.app/Contents/MacOS/s25client | rg LC_BUILD_VERSION -A3
cmd LC_BUILD_VERSION
cmdsize 32

minos 12.0
Please try again with package from 10:27
I am able to run it now.

the game doesn't initialize.
Ok go into the package to MacOS and start in Terminal
./s25client
What happened?
The "updater" is missing, I know. But it should work without it.
Ok perhaps the dylib in video driver folder is not running on old OS versions. Can you please otool this file?
looks good
otool -l libvideoSDL2.dylib | grep -A3 LC_BUILD_VERSION cmd LC_BUILD_VERSION cmdsize 32 platform 1 minos 12.0
I tried compiling s25client on my machine using your guide. cloned repo, installed gettext, boost, miniupnpc, exported MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET variable. got some warnings that libraries are compiled for macos 14 and/or 15, so most likely minimum macos version should be 15.
anyway, for some reason version compiled on my own machine was able to find video driver and initialize s25client window.
