I've got a Cocoa program compiled using GCC3 on 10.2 with the latest (non-beta) developer tools. I've got a few users on 10.1 reporting that it doesn't work for them. I'm almost 100% that I haven't used any 10.2-specific functionality, so I'm wondering how I can compile a version that will run on 10.1. I don't have a machine with 10.1 to use to test.

Does anyone know what steps can I take to produce (on 10.2) a binary that will run on 10.1? Will switching to GCC 2.9 do it? I don't have any frameworks linked other than Foundation and Cocoa, and am not using any of the new features added in 10.2.

Any thoughts are appreciated. TIA.

If you set a compiler flag (in your target settings) like so:
-DMAC_OS_X_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED=MAC_OS_X_VERSION_10_1
and recompile, you'll find out for sure what 10.2 stuff you're using.

Also, check out Apple's technote on the subject: <http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn2002/tn2064.html>.
