Mac question..

[hisefilo]

@lindon Afaik Mojave does not allows Xcode 8.x maybe High Sierra does. And Xcode 9.3 I think stopped support for x86. Have to google that to confirm, don't remember the version exactly

[Jay]

@hisefilo not true I'm using xcode 9.4.3 and is working fine and compiling without issues in Sierra

[Lindon]

..s o can I get some sort of clarity then on this @Christoph-Hart ?

[Christoph Hart]

Well if there is a problem with the latest macOS version let me know and I‘ll fix it, should not be a show stopper that justifies UPPER CASE SCREAMING ;)

I am still rolling on Xcode 8, because Xcode turned to S*** as C++ IDE with version 9+.

[Christoph Hart]

And if they really removed 32 bit, it is a one-line fix to get it to compile again, but, again, I wouldn‘t know...

[Lindon]

OK, well I'm still confused.

I realisie I need Xcode 8.x - Fine.

What is the most up to date OS I can have and still have Xcode 8 function?

[Dan Korneff]

@lindon I think High Sierra? I just bought a mac mini to compile, but haven't booted it up yet.

[Lindon]

@dustbro thanks mate - let me know how it goes, Im assuming you will be compiling HISE from the source?

[Christoph Hart]

@Bastiaan also tried to use it in Mojave with Xcode 9 and the only thing that was necessary in order to make it work was to change a flag in the projucer template.

I've added a setting flag in the HISE Compiler Settings called Support32BitMacOS, which can be disabled for newer versions (and at some point in the future I will make it the default, however I can't silently remove this target from the default settings).

So nothing should stop you from using the latest XCode and macOS versions (except for a nightmare UX).

@christoph-hart Super, thanks, i will check it out!

[hisefilo]

[Lindon]
