Running it with those extra arguments gives this: ``` C/C++ release|arm64-v8a : CMake Error at /Users/andru/SEAL/CMakeLists.txt:524 (message): SEAL_C requires `SEAL_BUILD_DEPS=ON` ``` I then changed it and deleted `-DSEAL_BUILD_DEPS=OFF` and everything...

`ar` doesn't accept --version. What I get from `ar` is that it can have to following format: ``` usage: ar -d [-TLsv] archive file ... ar -m [-TLsv] archive file...

Still no luck. Apparently `ar` on osx is a bit different from the one from Linux. Please see here: [ar osx](https://www.unix.com/man-page/osx/1/ar/) [ar linux](https://linux.die.net/man/1/ar)

I can't find a Makefile and I noticed it builds the android app with ninja. So I am uploading the build.ninja file that I think it's using. [build_ninja.txt](https://github.com/microsoft/SEAL/files/7466819/build_ninja.txt)

I did some more research since I really need compression for my phone app while encrypting and it seems that in the build.ninja the command calls `ar` and it fails,...

It didn't work. I inspected the generated CMake files more and I noticed that the `CMakeCache.txt` file from the android package has the `FilePath` for the `ar` set to the...

@sunshine-lh You can save the ciphertext directly using `serialize` from the object - example [here](https://github.com/andru47/contact-tracing-he/blob/6cf2ce56d8c9998547ebf76c926833504a5feaf9/he-component/src/server/smkhe/smkhe_he_server.cpp#L122). However, you will just see random bytes, so if you need the ciphertext for debugging,...

The coeffs variable is from the Polynomial parameter of the ciphertext. When using CKKS, or HE in general, the ciphertexts are polynomials. The `coeffs` are the coefficients of the underlying...

Hi @taxuexunshang, I just saw this question. I think the value `100` is too big for that scale - did you try decreasing the scale?

Hi @sdy626, the best way to link the library is to use CMake. Here's an [example](https://github.com/andru47/contact-tracing-he/blob/master/he-component/bridge/server/CMakeLists.txt). For further reference, read the README [here](https://github.com/andru47/contact-tracing-he#server).
