v1.8.6 | Swift Everywhere
What's New
🎧swift on.
Bring support for Microsoft Windows.
-
Support for Microsoft Windows in MetaverseKit was brought in a while back, but shortly after, Microsoft released a MSVC update which made their STL incompatible with the version of clang embedded in all current releases of Swift, this release adds a workaround which allows Swift/C++ interop to work again on Microsoft Windows, regardless.
-
Ensure all source code in this repo has their respective licenses.
-
Temporarily remove MaterialX metal shaders due to shader compilation errors in Swift Bundler.
-
Due to a bug in Swift, you must ensure you do not have TBB installed on your system via (pending this PR to Swift to fix this):
sudo apt remove libtbb-dev
Usage
Add MetaverseKit as a package dependency to your own Swift project's Package.swift file:
// swift-tools-version: 5.10
dependencies: [
.package(url: "https://github.com/wabiverse/MetaverseKit", from: "1.8.6")
]Linux
For Linux, these are the only dependencies required, as MetaverseKit provides everything else.
Tip
If you are on a distro like Ubuntu there is a good chance you already have most of these installed.
Important
If you have installed TBB on your Linux system, it will break the entire std library on Linux, so you must ensure you do not have TBB installed on your system via (ex. sudo apt remove libtbb-dev), (pending this PR to Swift to fix this).
