MacOS universal binaries

Matthieu_Brucher — Sun, 14 May 2017 22:12:19 GMT

Hi,

I just got update 3 installed on my Mac. I need to build a universal binary for an app/plugin that requires it per Apple requirements (GarageBand).

Unfortunately, it seems that the free/community edition is only 64bits. This is not mentioned in any documentation, so is it an oversight?

Just saw this:

Just saw this:

Installation on IA-32 architecture hosts is no longer supported, and the Intel IPP packages for Intel® 64 architecture hosts include both 64-bit and 32-bit Intel IPP libraries.

But it's not true, the 32bits are not there on MacOS.

How did you install the IPP?

Installation on IA-32 architecture hosts is no longer supported, 32bit IPP apps are suggested to be developed on 64bit hosts.

Strange, I tried with the static version, it failed:

It seems that the shared version doesn't have these link issues (yet?). The inconvenience is that my app now relies on an external library... Unless there is already an official IPP framework object for Xcode?

Hi Matthieu,

Hi Matthieu,

Try to add VM library in the linking order like this:

/opt/intel/ipp/lib/libipps.a /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippvm.a /opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippcore.a

Excellent! Thanks a lot!

Matthieu_Brucher — Mon, 15 May 2017 18:42:23 GMT

Excellent! Thanks a lot!

I still had to copy the libraries to a custom place so that Xcode doesn't pick up the shared library version, as with them I can't redistribute the app. But now I can move forward :)

If you add libraries to

Pavel_V_Intel — Tue, 16 May 2017 06:53:12 GMT

If you add libraries to "Other Linker Flags" in XCode with full path it should work

/opt/intel/ipp/lib/libipps.a
/opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippvm.a
/opt/intel/ipp/lib/libippcore.a

or

${IPPROOT}/lib/libipps.a
${IPPROOT}/lib/libippvm.a
${IPPROOT}/lib/libippcore.a

But then IPPROOT should be set in Preferences -> Locations -> Custom Paths

We use this approach in IPP examples. They have XCode projects and you can check it.
