Open Mac project on PC

General JUCE discussion

Hi

Im migrating stuff from my macbook to a PC. Projucer defaults to opening files with XCode and I cant find a way to use a different IDE. Any tips?

Thanks /Bo

Did you add a “Visual Studio” target to your project? You’ll need that target in the project to build it on Windows 
 and you can’t really add it on MacOS, so its probably missing in your .jucer file. Add it as a new target, and then select it as your ‘current target’ when you re-open the .jucer file in Projucer

fyi you can add any target from macOS (and presumably any other platform running Projucer), am I missing something for you to have said “you can’t really add it on MacOS”?

I’ve personally never had any issue. I do all my development on macOS and use Azure Pipelines to build my Windows and Linux targets.

Oh, sure - you can add the targets on MacOS, and it’ll update the .jucer file to include the target. But I’m yet to see Visual Studio 2019 running on MacOS. :slight_smile:

I think @danerius’ issue is that he just doesn’t have the Windows-based targets added to his .jucer file yet
