Hi,
Can someone with a MacBook Neo (A18 Pro CPU) send me the output of these Shell commands to enter in Terminal?
I need them to detect the CPU type in MicMac.
Thanks in advance.
sysctl machdep.cpu.brand_string
sysctl hw.model
system_profiler SPHardwareDataType | grep -i chip

Try asking an AI assistant for the declares to get the CPU type. I think you’ll be impressed.
It’s already been done; after a lot of research, they told me that the CPU is too new to get a definitive answer.
If you were parsing string output from these shell commands, you are not using the declares to get the cpu type.

Does the SystemInformationMBS.MacProductSOCName command recognize the A18 Pro CPU (does it return “Apple A18 Pro”)?
Thanks
Dan
machdep.cpu.brand_string: Apple A18 Pro
