MacOS Product Bundle is corrupt

[StevieDee123]

The current 64-bit MacOS bundle is corrupt. When I download V4.3.2_mac64.2019-10-07_08-26-30.tar.gz and extract it, the Sloeber executable shows the following dialog.

I have tried this multiple times over the past few days.

I figured this out. The .tar.gz file didn't like being unpacked with the default Mac Archive Utility. It works fine when I do command line:
gunzip -c V4.3.2_mac64.2019-10-07_08-26-30.tar.gz | tar xopf -

Thanks. Sorry to bother you :)

You're welcome.

Would it be possible to make the tar mac archive compatible?
If not; should we not add this info to the installation instructions.
Or is the mac archive utility something non-standard?

Note that even tar zxf V4.3.2_mac64.2019-10-07_08-26-30.tar.gz fails. only gunzip -c V4.3.2_mac64.2019-10-07_08-26-30.tar.gz | tar xf - works.

The default Mac archive utility is pretty standard. I've never seen this with other gzipped tarball files before. I'm not sure what is causing it. I would suggest at a minimum, add the command line details to the installation instructions.

I'm not sure how all this works but the code that does the tarring is here
https://github.com/Sloeber/arduino-eclipse-plugin/blob/master/io.sloeber.product/pom.xml#L38

and the build output for the tar is here

There might be something "wrong" with the tar that is used on my build machine.

Why not use zip? tar.gz seems overly complicated

Zip for windows and mac? Also for linux?
No idea how to tackle his in a pom.

[liebman]

Zip is available on linux as well. I'd even bet that on the common desktop distro's it may be installed by default most of the time.....

[wimjongman]

Just replace tar.gz with zip in the pom you linked earlier. Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36>
