Support for Universal Binaries in macOS
---------------------------------------

.. include:: ../../../common/experimental_warning.inc

Starting in Conan 2.2.0, there's preliminary support for building universal binaries in
macOS using CMakeToolchain. To pass the universal architecture to Conan, use the `|`
separator when defining the arch in the settings to pass a list of architectures. For
example, running:

.. code:: bash

conan create . --name=mylibrary --version=1.0 -s="arch=armv8|x86_64"

will create a universal binary for *mylibrary* containing both ``armv8`` and ``x86_64``
architectures, setting ``CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES`` with a value of ``arm64;x86_64`` in the
*conan_toolchain.cmake* file.
