Trouble compiling on OS X 10.6 for 10.5

[VTwin]

I am developing a cross platform application on OS X 10.6 using Lazarus 0.9.31. After a colleague reported it was not running on Intel 10.5, I found the info on linking for 10.5 and added the following Build Macro:

Code: [Select]

if TargetOS = 'darwin' then begin
  UsageCustomOptions += ' -k-macosx_version_min -k10.5';
  UsageCustomOptions += ' -XR/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.5.sdk/';
end; 
That didn't solve the problem though, it still would not run. I did check, and the SDK path is correct. I found an Intel box running 10.5, and compiled it there, but that is not a good solution.

Any suggestions as to what I am doing wrong?

Cheers,
Frederick

Those options are correct. If it's not working, it means that the options are not passed to the compiler while linking your program or one of the libraries it uses.

Thanks jmaebe,

Is there a way I can see what compiler options being passed by Lazarus?

[Jonas Maebe]

Project -> Project Options -> click on the "Show Options" or "Test" buttons at the bottom.

FWIW, I can't get any kind of build macro to add anything to UsageCustomOptions (conditional or not).

As you say, the option switches do not appear to be added to the command line. Are the build macros broken?

Do you have a workaround?

[Jonas Maebe]

I can't help you. I'm not a Lazarus developer, and personally I use Lazarus almost exclusively as an editor.

Thanks Jonas, it is helpful to know it is not just me.

I added switches to 'Other', and they do show up now. That probably will fix the issue, but don't have 10.5 handy to test at the moment.

I appreciate the input.

Confirming, it did work. Thanks!
