| Re: [tycho-user] Support for 64-bit ARM Builds |
Hi,
We do have Mac M1 processor builds available from this release. In M1 we used arm64 as processor string. This has been changed to aarch64 from M2 onwards to make it consistent with JDK and linux
Thanks and Regards,

If you are only like to use SWT, it seems there is an early access version available with
<environment>
<os>macosx</os>
<ws>cocoa</ws>
<arch>arm64</arch>
</environment>
but you would need to build a product without a native launcher then...
