Installation in Mac fails

[rubindg]

Is there any plans to make this software available for Mac users?

I am trying to install the software in Mac OSX (Ventura 13.5.2) and these are the updates I have tried so far:

Using Brew install all the packages

brew install openblas
brew install armadillo
brew install boost
brew install dlib
brew install tbb

The cmake command will now give an error "Could NOT find OpenMP_C" and for this you have to install libomp as suggested here

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/53337299/error-could-not-find-openmp-c-when-install-lightgbm-on-macos

After this you will get an error that armadillo and openblas cannot be linked. This is solved by updating the cmake command as

cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DLINK_TIME_OPTIMIZATIONS=ON -DNATIVE_BUILD=ON -DARMA_NO_WRAPPER=OFF

Now it after executing make command the final errors are

1. /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX13.3.sdk/usr/include/c++/v1/deque:314:34: error: invalid application of 'sizeof' to an incomplete type 'results::Transcript'
2. /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/SDKs/MacOSX13.3.sdk/usr/include/c++/v1/queue:269:5: error: static_assert failed due to requirement 'is_same<results::Transcript, int>::value' ""

Any idea of how to resolve this?

Thank you,
Regards,
Rubin.

Hi Rubin,

Unfortunately not.
DRACO has been developed and tested only on Linux.
My advice is to install it on a Linux virtual machine.
