Cmake build failing on bigsur / apple silicon

juceaide is failing to build on mac mini m1 / BigSur 11.0.1

Im trying to build native (arm) juce vst3 plugins using cmake.

(my other non-juce projects are compiling quite happily with cmake/native… just issues with juce)

-- Building juceaide
CMake Error at juce/extras/Build/juceaide/CMakeLists.txt:86 (message):
  Failed to build juceaide

just taking one of the build errors, we can see its failing on the asm(“int $3”)
my assumption is, juce is assuming MAC == INTEL

#elif JUCE_GCC || JUCE_MAC
  #if JUCE_NO_INLINE_ASM
   #define JUCE_BREAK_IN_DEBUGGER       { }
  #else
   #define JUCE_BREAK_IN_DEBUGGER       { asm ("int $3"); }
  #endif
#elif JUCE_ANDROID
  #define JUCE_BREAK_IN_DEBUGGER        { __builtin_trap(); }
#else
  #define JUCE_BREAK_IN_DEBUGGER        { __asm int 3 }
#endif

Note: I know I can just define JUCE_NO_INLINE_ASM here to get around the issue, but that feels like its just kicking the can down the road… if other parts of JUCE are going to assume MAC=INTEL.
(e.g.dsp code with SSE will trip up next)

is there any work being done in this area?
has anyone got this working?

Please ensure you’re using a recent version of JUCE. It looks like your version is not up to date with the current master branch:
