Feature: Publish macOS releases

[reneleonhardt]

The homebrew bottle contains many macOS builds (arm64 and Intel), but none are released on GitHub.

https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openapv/releases/tag/v0.2.0.2

github-actions are outdated:

# .github/dependabot.yml
version: 2
updates:
  - package-ecosystem: github-actions
    directory: /
    schedule:
      interval: weekly

Sorry but I didn't catch what this issue is about?
Homebrew is maintained externally, and I saw it already have updated open apv to v 0.2.0.3

And what is about dependabot? We're not using it right now.

Anyway, we can prepare GitHub Action here to publish macOS package, for exmaple .dmg file.

[reneleonhardt]

It's a feature request.

The externally maintained bottle contains other platforms than the official GitHub releases, for example macOS arm64 and Intel builds.
In addition, GitHub releases offer no Windows ARM build and RPM packages.

https://github.com/AcademySoftwareFoundation/openapv/releases/tag/v0.2.0.3

• OpenAPV-0.2.0.3-win64.zip
• openapv_0.2.0.3_amd64.deb
• openapv_0.2.0.3_arm64.deb

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/HEAD/Formula/o/openapv.rb

• arm64_tahoe
• arm64_sequoia
• arm64_sonoma
• arm64_ventura
• sonoma
• ventura
• arm64_linux
• x86_64_linux

Because you're not using dependabot, your actions are outdated, that was an example configuration to automatically update them.
For example:

• actions/checkout@v5
• actions/download-artifact@v5

FYI the README shows build instructions for aarch64_toolchain.cmake which doesn't exist, but arm64_toolchain.cmake does (renamed in February).

[dariusz-f]

More platform builds can be added but we need to choose which are we want to support, because generating a lot of possible combinations is excessive.

FYI, The PR #151 is recently merged, which fixed some building problem of Mac OS.

[reneleonhardt]

Sounds good, I can't build for Mac OS locally but I hope there will be builds released here in the future, that's what I was asking about when I compared to the unofficial homebrew bottle 👍

$ cmake -S . -B build-darwin -DUNIVERSAL=FALSE -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=arm64 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug
$ cmake --build build-darwin
[ 86%] Linking C shared library ../lib/liboapv.dylib
Undefined symbols for architecture arm64:

[sidwat]

@reneleonhardt , we need to pass -DARM=1 to include the arm64 neon related code for the build
Can you try the following :-

cmake -S . -B build-darwin -DUNIVERSAL=FALSE -DCMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES=arm64 -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -DARM=1
cmake --build build-darwin

Can you please check with this?

[reneleonhardt]

Wow, for the first time the build worked, thank you!
Maybe you could add official instructions in the README.

Warnings:

ld: warning: ignoring duplicate libraries: '-lm'

[dariusz-f]

After merging #155 some builds for macOS will be available on next release, also in readme there are some manual for macOS builds. I thing that this features will be enough for this issue.
