<https://xojo.com/issue/42794> arm64 for Raspberry Pi 3
Has Xojo been tested with this new version of the Pi ?
Great, now you just need an OS to run it on. They aren’t doing a 64 bit version of the OS yet.
Not likely at this time.

Right - they’ve specifically said that they’ve no immediate plans for a 64-bit Raspbian. And even when there is a 64-bit OS, it should be possible to run 32-bit apps just fine. And for the types of apps we’re likely all making on the Pi, I’m guessing there would be little benefit of 64-bit versions.
Having said all that, I’d be hopeful that it would be relatively simple for Xojo Inc to allow 64-bit compilation for the Pi when the time comes - most of the work has already been done.
Nevermind the fact that the pi still only has 1GB of RAM.
Thing is there are other machines than “Pure raspberry” and some of them are at 2 GB, and some are going 64bit.
And even if Raspberry is the guideline platform of what is supported then Xojo is great on all of those machines. (Except the 64 bit ones are left out, there are not many such yet though but its definitely coming in more amount) and the announcement of 64 bit Raspberry seemed to stirr them up at Armbian about the possibility of making 64 bit release.
64-bit operating systems are coming and there are benefits. Preparing to target Linux on arm64 would be proactive.

Even so, you’d still have to get above 4GB for it to matter in terms of RAM and even then it would probably need to be 8GB as the OS and services use a good chunk as well.
Xojo supports Linux on 64-bit Intel, Linux on 32-bit ARM, and iOS on 64-bit ARM. I don’t expect much trouble, but I don’t have a board in front of me running a 64-bit ARM Linux kernel that I can play with.
Glad to hear it shouldn’t be too difficult and hope it’s included as a Xojo target later this year when there should be one or more 64-bit ARMv8 optimized Linux operating systems that run on the Raspberry Pi 3.
Somebody could please tell me when will Xojo supports Linux on 64-bit ARM?
Maybe this post answers your question? ARM x64
