Cannot run after compiling on Mac

[jobukkit]

I am using Mac OS Sonoma 14.4.1. I successfully compiled the app, but when running it it immediately crashes. Running it from another terminal reveals the following error:

~/Downloads/contour/build/macos-release/src/contour/contour.app/Contents/MacOS▶ ./contour
Warning: Could not find the Qt platform plugin "cocoa" in "" ((null):0, (null))
Fatal: This application failed to start because no Qt platform plugin could be initialized. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem.
 ((null):0, (null))

The precompiled build does work.

Hi,

Can you please check the configuration entry for platform_plugin in the config file located at $HOME/.config/contour/contour.yml?

[jobukkit]

The platform plugin is set to the default "auto". Deleting the file or changing it to "cocoa" has no effect.

Oh, i see, thanks for the info i think that @christianparpart might have some time soon to check macos support

[barracuda156]

Does it require Qt or can use something with a better cross-platform support like GTK?

This is how I build Contour (master) from scratch on my Apple M1

So the commands in short should be:

# get dependencies
arch -arm64 ./scripts/install-deps.sh

# configure the project
arch -arm64 cmake --preset macos-release

# build the binary package
cmake --build --preset macos-release

# run it from within the source's build directory
./build/macos-release/src/contour/contour.app/Contents/MacOS/contour

# package it
cpack --preset macos-release

# install it from package (be aware of the wildcard `*`)
open ./build/macos-release/Contour-*-Darwin.dmg

Then you'd probably want to package your own .dmg file, using cpack command.

How did you install Qt and which version is it? I am consuming the dependencies all through brew on my local machine.

@jobukkit did you find out the reason for it? i can compile on mac without such issues, you can provide cmake output during configuration stage maybe then we can figure out the reason
@barracuda156 we use qt for cross-platform support, and for now not planning to support another frameworks or replace qt

@Yaraslaut Got it, thank you for responding.

I haven't gotten around to trying again yet.
