Yes for better compatibility with older os. You don't need to sign there. The right engine is installed directly by our download managerFigBug wrote: ↑Wed Nov 18, 2020 12:56 amXcode 3??? That's from 2007. Is there really still a market for PPC plugins? Is it really worth limiting yourself to an ancient version of C++ / Objective-C just to support these machines? Or do you have different branches of your codebase for each Xcode version?Zaphod (giancarlo) wrote: ↑Tue Nov 17, 2020 7:20 pm For example we have arm code compiled in xcode 12 and Intel code compiled in xcode 3 and xcode 10
I'm happy building everything with Xcode 12.2 and the latest SDK. I can support back to 10.10 (and hopefully 10.9 if I can figure out the signing issue). Do people who don't update their OS for 6 years even buy new software?
There are no branches, just different preprocessor directives.
Our code is still compiling on Borland c builder!!! It is a bit of pain to have code which compiles on llvm, or Microsoft compilers, Borland or GCC at the same time, but it is a good exercise.
All the times we need something specific we have a dispatcher in our framework (ie specific code compiled for avx512, or silicon)
