I’m working on someone else’s application and so far he has built it in XCode 4. XCode 4 has eliminated support for PowerPC architectures, but we would still like to support PowerPCs for some of our users.
I have followed this tutorial on SO, informing me how to restore ppc compatibility to XCode 4, however, this is for the GCC (4.2) compiler which throws a lot of warnings and some errors when compiling the code. The code is optimized around Apple’s LLVM 3.0.
My questions:
- Is it possible to use Apple LLVM
compiler 3.0 for Power PC deployment? - How would one go about doing this?
- What settings variables do I need to
set in order to get PPC compatibility
when compiling?
Thank you!
Pretty much no, it’s not possible. Apple LLVM 3.0 hasn’t been tested or verified to work at all with PowerPC.
