Or is there some way to build a single app that runs on both and if so are there any drawbacks to doing this?

The only drawback is you get partially buggy, backward compatible behavior on Leopard when you link against the 10.4 SDK.

Can you elaborate? I was under the naive assumption that as long as I don't use any 10.5-only APIs the 10.4 SDK and the 10.5 SDK should behave the same.


I like using the 10.4 SDK over the 10.5 SDK because it'll prevent me from accidently using 10.5-only calls that would then crash on 10.4.
