Mac Catalyst build about metalangle

[mtehver]

I managed to compile the project from command line by replacing '-target' argument with '-scheme'. Thus the working command line is following:

xcodebuild -project OpenGLES.xcodeproj -scheme MetalANGLE_static -sdk macosx -configuration Release -destination 'platform=macOS,variant=Mac Catalyst' SUPPORTS_MACCATALYST=YES

Thanks for your help!

Hi. What difficulties you are facing? Building mac catalyst version you just need to use the same target as iOS version, i.e. “MetalANGLE”, but must set target device to “my mac” instead of iOS device.

If you want to build via xcodebuild, you need to pass “—sdk macosx” instead of “—sdk iphoneos”. Also need to set environment variable “SUPPORTS_MACCATALYST=YES” I believe.

Thanks! Indeed, building from Xcode works. Though when I try building from command line using

xcodebuild -project OpenGLES.xcodeproj -target MetalANGLE_static -sdk macosx -configuration Release -destination 'platform=macOS,variant=Mac Catalyst'

I get error messages about UIKit not being available on macOS. Any idea what should I change or add to make it also work from command line?

I think you have to set an environment variable. e.g
SUPPORTS_MACCATALYST=YES xcodebuild ...
