问题
I heavily use the c++0x/c++11 features in my project, particularly code blocks and shared pointers. When I upgraded my OS to 10.8 Mountain Lion (Edit: From 10.7), I was forced to upgrade Xcode. In upgrading Xcode, I lost the ability to compile my c++ project for deployment on 10.6 systems as I get the following error.
clang: error: invalid deployment target for -stdlib=libc++ (requires Mac OS X 10.7 or later)
It appears that Apple is trying to force people to upgrade by not allowing developers to support Snow Leopard. This makes me angry. Arrrggg!!!
What can I do?
EDIT: After several comments back and forth, it should be made clear that 10.6 does not ship with system libc++ libraries. As a result, simply being able to build a libc++ project for 10.6 deployment is not enough. You would also need to include libc++ binaries with your 10.6 distribution or statically link to them. So lets continue with the premise that I am already doing that.
UPDATE 1: This question was originally intended for use with Xcode 4.5.2 (the latest version at the time the question was asked). I have since upgraded to Xcode 4.6.3 and have updated the question and answer to reflect that.
UPDATE 2: I've since upgraded to Xcode 5.0.2. The technique listed in the selected answer below still works as expected.
UPDATE 3: I've since upgraded to Xcode 5.1. The technique listed in the answer below does not yet work for this version!
UPDATE 4: I've since upgraded to Xcode 6.0.1. The technique listed in the selected answer below appears to be working again.
UPDATE 5: I've since upgraded to Xcode 7.1.1. The technique listed in the selected answer below appears to be working again, with one important caveat. You must disable Bitcoding used for AppThinning since the opensource LLVM version doesn't support it (nor should it). So you will need to switch between the open source and Apple LLVM clang in order to compile for both 10.6 and tvOS/watchOS (since Bitcoding is required for those OSes).
回答1:
Apple has decided to only officially support libc++ on 10.7 or higher. So the version of clang/llvm that ships with Xcode checks to see if the deployment target is set for 10.6 when using libc++, and prevents you from compiling. However, this flag is not included in the open source version of clang/llvm.
Take a look at this thread: http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.clang.devel/17557
So, to compile a project that is using c++11 for 10.6 deployment, you need to give Xcode the open source version. Here is one way of doing it:
- Download the open source version of clang from here (use LLVM 3.1 for Xcode 4.5.x; use LLVM 3.2 for Xcode 4.6.x; use LLVM 3.3 for Xcode 5.0.x; use LLVM 3.5.0 for XCode 6.0.1; use LLVM 3.7.0 for XCode 7.1.1):
http://llvm.org/releases/download.html
- Make a backup of Xcode's default clang compiler and put it in a safe place (In case you screw up!) This is located at: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang
- Replace the default clang compiler with the one you downloaded from [1]
- chown the clang binary for root:wheel with
sudo chown root:wheel clangfrom the bin directory listed in [2]. - Startup Xcode and compile!
UPDATE #1: This technique does not currently work for Xcode 5.1 or newer, which relies on LLVM 3.4. When I get some more time, I will try and find a solution to post here. But if someone comes up with a solution before me, they should post it as an answer.
UPDATE #2: Unfortunately I can't remember if I ever found a solution for Xcode 5.1, however I can confirm that the technique does still work for Xcode 6.0.1. I haven't tested on versions newer than that, but it could still work.
UPDATE #3: This technique appears to still work with XCode 7.1.1 using LLVM 3.7.0. However, the open source LLVM clang does not support Bitcoding. So you will need to switch between the open source compiler and Apple's compiler in order to develop for both 10.6 and tvOS/watchOS (which require Bitcoding).
P.S.: The Mac OS X binaries for LLVM 3.4 and 3.5.0 are listed as "Clang for Darwin 10.9" at www.llvm.org/releases/download.html rather than as "Clang Binaries for Mac OS X" in previous versions.
回答2:
While Xcode 4.5.x is the current default version on OS X 10.8, you can have other, older versions of Xcode, such as Xcode 3.2.6 for OS X 10.6, available on 10.8 as long as you have access to their installers. You will need to ensure you install each one to a unique directory. Also, one thing you can't or shouldn't do is to install the Command Line Tools component or installer package of older Xcodes onto your 10.8 system, i.e. not into /usr or /System/Library. You can use the xcodebuild, xcode-select, and xcrun command line tools to access non-default Xcode components. See their man pages for more info. Older versions of Xcode are available to registered users of developer.apple.com
UPDATE: Based on your subsequent comments, I believe I did miss the point of the question and also that you had answered your own question. I think what you are saying is that you upgraded from 10.7 to 10.8, not from 10.6 to 10.8 as I assumed. You also did not make clear in the original question that you were distributing your own version of Apple's libc++ and friends from 10.7 with your own app. Apple does not make it easy in Xcode to do something like that since it has long been Apple's policy to discourage static linking with libs or distributing duplicate libs (which in some cases could violate license terms). There are good reasons for that policy.
The bottom line is that libc++ is only shipped with OS X 10.7 or later systems. There never was Apple support for libc++ in 10.6, so it's misleading to say it was removed. If you want to supply an app that is deployable on 10.6 and later systems and depends on libc++, the safest approach is to build your own clang/llvm and libc++ targeted for OS X 10.6 and use that to build your project. There are various ways to do that, probably the easiest is to use the MacPorts versions and set the deployment target in MacPorts for 10.6. Or build it all from scratch yourself. But modifying the clang compiler within Xcode 4.5 is a bad idea. And copying Apple libraries to one's app is generally a bad idea.
If you have a solution that works for you, great. But I would not recommend it to others.
