@ Bill I'm running an Apple M1 Mini. Following Eric's instructions, I've just upgraded to j903-beta-v. It's using Rosetta to run x86_64 even though there's meant to be an arm64 binary in the app package
JVERSION Engine: j903/j64/darwin Beta-v: commercial/2021-11-16T21:51:35 Library: 9.03.06 Qt IDE: 1.9.4/5.15.2(5.15.2) Platform: Darwin 64 Installer: J903 install InstallPath: /applications/j903 Contact: www.jsoftware.com Out-of-the-box, I get: 9!:56'cpu' x86_64 i.e. NOT arm64 If I launch Terminal, I get: ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch arm64 Guessing from your instructions, the following command line ought to run arm64 in j903, but I get errors… ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch arm64 ./jconsole arch: Can't find arm64 in PATH ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch -arm64 ./jconsole arch: ./jconsole isn't executable ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch -arm64 jconsole The operation couldn’t be completed. Unable to locate a Java Runtime. Please visit http://www.java.com for information on installing Java. …okay, maybe that's the wrong "jconsole" and maybe I need the full path to the J executable ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch -arm64 /Applications/j903/jcon903.app arch: /Applications/j903/jcon903.app isn't executable ianclark@Ians-Mac-mini ~ % arch -arm64 /Applications/j903/bin/jconsole arch: posix_spawnp: /Applications/j903/bin/jconsole: Bad CPU type in executable Now I give up. Anyway, why isn't macOS (Monterey, Version 12.0.1) finding the arm64 binary by default? Suggestions?
