CI: add release on macos-14

[LeoHsiao1]

Good morning!
In 2020, apple sells a new generation of mac computers, changing the CPU chips from Intel to M1, and the CPU architecture from amd64 to arm64.
In #2173, some users want to use exiv2 on MacOS M1 computers. I would like to help them, although I don't have a MacOS computer.

In 2024, actions/runner-images#9255, GitHub Actions added the macos-14 runner. It only uses M1 chips, not Intel chips.
So I modified the exiv2 workflow script to compile on macos-14. It looks like it compiled successfully, but not yet tested.

There is another problem, we need to change the filename format of the release packages, to differentiate between amd64 and arm64.

Thanks for the initiative! For the arch and archive names, you can check what we did for darktable recently: https://github.com/darktable-org/darktable/blob/master/.github/workflows/nightly.yml

[LeoHsiao1]

Thanks for the darktable example.
In exiv2, .github/workflows/release.yml now generates 4 zip files:

exiv2-linux64.zip
exiv2-win.zip
exiv2-macos-12-x64.zip    # it is compatible with macos ≥12 , amd64
exiv2-macos-14-arm64.zip  # it is compatible with macos ≥14 , arm64

However, if you unzip exiv2-macos-12-x64.zip or exiv2-macos-14-arm64.zip, you will get a file named exiv2-1.00.0.9-Darwin.tar.gz.
This name is determined by cmake.
Honestly, I don't know how to configure cmake.

These were now updated.

@LeoHsiao1 I've used one of my favorite tricks, and opened a PR against your PR.

PR LeoHsiao1#1 will, if you merge it, incorporate my change to the packaging configs into this PR. Here's my commit message explaining how the package-naming changes:

CMake: Add architecture to package filename

Use 64bit or 32bit on Windows hosts (including MinGW/Cygwin/MSYS), the value of ${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_ARCHITECTURE} on all others. Always insert into package filename directly after version, separated from preceding version and following flags with hyphens.

So, e.g.

• exiv2-1.0.9-Linux64.tar.gz
• exiv2-1.0.9-Darwin.tar.gz
• exiv2-1.0.9-2019msvc64.zip

become:

• exiv2-1.0.9-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz
• exiv2-1.0.9-arm64-Darwin.tar.gz
• exiv2-1.0.9-64bit-2019msvc.zip

respectively.

(Committers here can then still review that change as part of this PR.)

[LeoHsiao1]

Thanks @ferdnyc , I merged your PR.
I run .github/workflows/release.yml again. Now it generate 4 files:

exiv2-linux64.zip         -> unzip ->    exiv2-1.00.0.9-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz
exiv2-macos-12-x64.zip    -> unzip ->    exiv2-1.00.0.9-x86_64-Darwin.tar.gz
exiv2-macos-14-arm64.zip  -> unzip ->    exiv2-1.00.0.9-arm64-Darwin.tar.gz
exiv2-win.zip             -> unzip ->    exiv2-1.00.0.9-64bit-2019msvc.zip

Nice @ferdnyc

However, I suggest using real arch for Windows builds as well, as WoA adoption seems to be around the corner.

@kmilos

However, I suggest using real arch for Windows builds as well, as WoA adoption seems to be around the corner.

That's a good point, I'm just not sure how to do it for Windows. The CMake script uses the size of a void pointer in the current compiler, to determine 32- vs. 64-bit builds, and I'm pretty sure that even when sizeof(void_p) == 4, the ${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR} will be whatever 64-bit CPU the build is actually running on.

I suppose I could just hard-code it to i686 for 32-bit builds, since that's the only possibility, and use the real ${CMAKE_HOST_SYSTEM_PROCESSOR} value for 64-bit builds. How do people feel about that?

[ferdnyc]

Three suggested changes that, applied together, would implement the "force i686 for 32-bit builds but use the real processor for all others" idea I mentioned in the comments.

(I had to split it up like this because of GitHub's annoying "no suggestions on ranges which include deleted lines" nonsense.)

[LeoHsiao1]

Fine, now .github/workflows/release.yml generate these files:

exiv2-arm64-macos-14.zip    -> unzip ->   exiv2-1.00.0.9-arm64-Darwin.tar.gz
exiv2-x64-macos-12.zip      -> unzip ->   exiv2-1.00.0.9-x86_64-Darwin.tar.gz
exiv2-x64-ubuntu-22.04.zip  -> unzip ->   exiv2-1.00.0.9-x86_64-Linux.tar.gz
exiv2-x64-windows-2022.zip  -> unzip ->   exiv2-1.00.0.9-AMD64-2019msvc.zip

The filename on the left side, indicates which machine exiv2 was built from.
Github Action may offer linux/arm64 and windows/arm64 in the future.

[neheb]

Needs rebasing I think.
