Re: Building for PowerPC *only* from an Intel-based Mac



In Project Info, select the Architecture option and click Edit at the bottom. Make sure both PowerPC and Intel are selected.

Subject: Building for PowerPC *only* from an Intel-based Mac



Context: Intel-based iMac + Mac OS X v10.4.6 + Xcode v2.2.1

===

 Hi There,


The subject says it all, but... Could someone please tell me if building a project for PowerPC only, from an Intel-based Mac, is at least possible?

If so, could someone please take some time to detail how to easily
achieve this?  (Perhaps, by starting from a brand new project, so that
it's 100% reproducible and not bound to any specificity of a given
project.)  Thanks a lot.

My attempts in *only* setting "ppc" values for some Xcode build
properties still lead to an Intel-only generated .app :( !  This may
be easy to do, so I might have missed some important elements in the
process...

===

Important Note: I *don't* want to only produce a PowerPC version of my
app in the end; I'm still fully committed to supporting *both*
architectures.  But it appears that I didn't succeed in building my
Cocoa-Java project as a Universal Binary from a single machine
*yet*...

Since I can somehow access a PowerPC-based Mac from time to time (not
conveniently though...), I've managed to deliver a Universal version
of my app by building my Xcode project successively from both systems,
and by then lipo-ing the executable parts into a single .app.  But
this is *definitely* not a viable solution (the PowerPC-based Mac is
not mine, and this process leads to some useless delays anytime I want
to release a public new release :( !)

This is just the sole way I've found to achieve Universality at this
time :( !  This is only *temporary* until I finish the morphing of my
Cocoa-Java project--so that it successfully produces a Universal
Binary from Xcode on my iMac Core Duo, w/o manually merging
executables.

===

Once again, *many* thanks to anyone that can provide me some help here.
