Support for ARM64 Windows #583
Comments
I had an attempt at it but ultimately failed. The problem is, at the moment, Windows on ARM builds must be cross-compiled from an x64 host which involves installing multiple Qt architectures, one for the host and one for the target. I couldn't get them to work together despite various workarounds I tried adapting from other build scripts I searched up on GitHub that were doing Windows ARM64 builds. I'm far from a Qt expert though, maybe @jurplel will have better luck someday. EDIT: jurplel/install-qt-action@e87490b makes this much easier; I got a basic version (no kimageformats, OpenSSL [not sure if needed with Qt6 anyway?], or installer) working in jdpurcell@7ce9fc2. |
Thank you for your hard work as always. I might give this a try some day, but the main bottleneck in qView releases is that the build process is still largely manual, despite hundreds of hours sunk into continuous deployment infrastructure. This is largely because of the plugins. Hopefully one day I can completely automate this, but I am a ways off from that currently. Until then, I am hesitant to introduce new targets. |
If someone wants to make this happen, they can make a PR for the CI here and at my other repo |
Would it be possible to get a .exe installer for a version supporting the ARM64 Windows platform? I can run the x64 version when downloading standalone (the installer says the architecture is not compatible), but it runs a bit slow since it's using Windows x64 emulation. Having native ARM64 would be much better, if possible.
