There’s one more place to remove the arm64 in the Makefile:
install:
- $(UNAME)==Darwin && ${MAKE} uninstall
- ifneq ($(ARCH),arm64)
+-ifneq ($(ARCH),arm64)
mkdir -p $(INSTALL_BIN_DIR)
cp hl $(INSTALL_BIN_DIR)
-@@ -240,8 +225,10 @@ endif
+-endif
mkdir -p $(INSTALL_LIB_DIR)
cp *.hdll $(INSTALL_LIB_DIR)
cp libhl.${LIBEXT} $(INSTALL_LIB_DIR)
with that addition it builds ok on aarch64. Not sure I fully
understood the test instructions. This command fails:
m2$ haxe -hl out/main.c -main Main
Called from /usr/obj/ports/haxe-4.3.6/haxe-4.3.6/std/neko/_std/EReg.hx line 205
Uncaught exception - load.c(237) : Failed to load library : regexp.ndll (File
not found)
Error: Build failed
With:
m2:$ cat Main.hx
/**
Multi-line comments for documentation.
**/
class Main {
static public function main():Void {
// Single line comment
trace("Hello World");
}
}
