Fix IDE auto-download in OSX Catalina (64-bit only OS) #155
Comments
Another work-around is to edit Would it be reasonable to allow this to be configurable in |
I'm trying to put a fine point on what the fix should be here.
Perhaps the better solution here is to detect 64-bit-only OSes and handle that. And possibly to bump the supported version from |
According to the downloads page, Arduino IDE version 1.8.13 runs on Window 7 and later, macOX 10.10 and later, and Linux 32-bit and 64-bit. While I have Windows 10 64-bit, when I run the Arduino IDE installer it puts the executable in |
I haven't tried 32 bit, but I closely follow the Arduino forum and the Arduino IDE's issue tracker, and this is the sort of thing you definitely hear about when compatibility is lost. So I think there is no problem with new IDE versions and 32 bit OS. The most recent losses I'm aware of were Windows XP/Vista and the older macOS versions, which was caused by Go dropping support, and subsequently breaking compatibility with those OS versions: |
Well... we're off to a rocky start, immediately encountering arduino/Arduino#9351 I was planning to go all-in on #206 after bumping the version, so this is a setback. But this seems like the appropriate next step. |
System: macOS
See #149 for details.
Downloading 1.8.6 instead of most recent (currently 1.8.13)
This is a follow-up from the "bad CPU type in executable" problem reported in #149. If a copy of the IDE is not found, we download one. Unfortunately, the (hard-coded?) version obtained (1.8.6) does not work on macOS 10.16 because it is not a 64-bit application.
Workaround
Delete the Arduino.app in the Documents directory and install the current version in the /Applications directory.
