We used
generateAudioPlugin audiopluginexample.FastConvolver
,which generated a file with no extension or a default Mac "exec" extension. We tried putting that to the Library->Audio->Plug-Ins->VST folder, restarted Mac few times and still it didn't appear in GarageBand.
What are instructions to sucessfully open generated VST in GarageBand on Mac, please?

I just discovered that GarageBand only supports AU, it does not support VST. We managed to load VST into Reaper.

Hi Adrian,
In the latest release (R2019b) you can generate AU plugins using generateAudioPlugin -au.
hope this helps,
Charlie

Hi
The Rez problem in AUComponent.r when compiling AU-plugins was solved in Matlab 2019b update 5 (and 2020a).
Unfortunately the latest version of Xcode introduce a new error, but 2019b update 5 and Xcode 11.3.1 (117505) should work, at least on my setup :-)
Best regards
