MacOS binary?

[muuuh]

Thanks for your plugin!

Could you please provide a binary for macOS?

I use the nightly build but miss DAB+. There seems to be a build guide for sdrplusplus https://github.com/AlexandreRouma/SDRPlusPlus?tab=readme-ov-file#building-on-macos but I currently have no idea how to build the module for macos https://github.com/FiendChain/SDRPlusPlus-DAB-Radio-Plugin/tree/master/toolchains

MacOS seems to require a .dylib file, like others in /Applications/SDR++.app/Contents/Plugins

Best regards,

Edit: Sorry, I just tested https://www.welle.io/ and that seems to be enough for my purposes :)

For any future macOS users you can follow the steps here: macos.yml. After building the plugin the dab_plugin.dylib file should be in your build folder. If there are any problems related to macos compiling, feel free to leave them here.

Thank you very much!

I was able to compile a libdab_plugin.dylib with Apple Silicon/arm64, but had no success activating the plugin in the SDR++ module manager (list next to the + button).

I'm currently stuck at this point and would expect a crash if the SDR++ core library differs from the dab plugin. I haven't noticed any hints in the macos console app for the process sdrpp, but not sure where SDR++ logs most (there are some logs for proces sdrpp in the console app).

Steps:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/FiendChain/SDRPlusPlus-DAB-Radio-Plugin
cd SDRPlusPlus-DAB-Radio-Plugin
cd vendor/volk
cmake . -B build -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET="10.15" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G Ninja

Because of google/cpu_features#204 (comment) I had to use https://github.com/google/cpu_features/tree/c5ece5e8ccd64f0da935fceb14f9ab8a3e2eefa0 and replaced the existing folder in ./vendor/volk/cpu_features/ with

git clone https://github.com/google/cpu_features/tree/
git checkout c5ece5e8ccd64f0da935fceb14f9ab8a3e2eefa0

Afterwards I could compile:

sudo cmake --build build --config Release --target install
cd ..
mkdir build-macos
cmake . -B ./build-macos -DCMAKE_OSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET="10.15" -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -G Ninja
cmake --build ./build-macos --config Release --target dab_plugin

I used the nightly build for Apple Silicon/arm64 referenced at AlexandreRouma/SDRPlusPlus#557 (comment) and copied ./build-macos/src/libdab_plugin.dylib to /Applications/SDR++.app/Contents/Plugins/libdab_plugin.dylib.

I'll let you know if there is progress. Thank you!
