Provide ARM support for windows

Open ann0see opened this issue 1 year ago • 3 comments

What is the current behaviour and why should it be changed? Currently Windows doesn't have an ARM native version. With Microsoft pushing windows on ARM with their new Surface lineup we should also provide an ARM version. Qt6 should support that already.

We should check how compiling for ARM works and how to package that.

Has this feature been discussed and generally agreed?

Not yet

Have any of the Jamulus developers ever seen a Windows Surface device? Does anyone own one they can use to verify and debug on?

If not, I'd rather we didn't start offering a platform we can't provide support for.

I believe I have seen one at a computer store but nothing more.

FWIW, I'm running Win11 ARM version in a Parallels VM on MacOS (M1). So I could probably test a Jamulus build for Windows ARM there. But I don't have a Microsoft Surface device.
