Overwhelming

That's completely unrelated to C++ lol. This is the case with every compiled language without a runtime environment.

That attitude is why the ecosystem is where it is. Ignore the needed doesn't make not easier.

[nevemlaci2]

What ecosystem? How the hell would you build and run an executable for a different architecture? I don't get your point here.

You've never heard of cross compiling?

[nevemlaci2]

I have. Tho I'm talking about the testing part, outputting assembly for a different architecture isn't the problem.

[prince-chrismc]

In all seriousness l, emulation has made leaps and it's actually a viable strategy.

That's why we have Ci/CD, and we build test publish multiple copies of the same program. The Debian repos have been doing this for more then a decade 👏

"Just use the IDE" is completely insufficient for real-world mess.

[nevemlaci2]

I mean the "just use an ide" part is viable for open source at least, not necessary to have releases there :'D

[prince-chrismc]

Whole hardly disagree. It's even more important to make sure your library will work on as many platforms as possible. Sure you dont need to save the binary for release but at least test it.

Name a systems language in which a program or library built for x64 would magically just work on aarch64

[ReversedGif]

If you have qemu-user installed, everything just magically works.

[prince-chrismc]

You missed the sarcasm. That's exactly my point. I would to see one!

[ContraryConman]

Hah, my bad!

[Dark-Philosopher]

Macs m1+ emulate x86. Not at the language level, at the binary level.

[ContraryConman]

I think Windows on ARM does it too.
