If you look inside the /Developer/SDK/ folders, it actually mirrors the entire usr/include tree, including the gcc C and C++ headers and libraries. Hopefully that should mean it will pick all of these up from the SDK and not the root.

My original post stated I was interested in the Chris Espinosa's "Just target, no SDK" scenario, i.e. building on Panther with the normal headers & libs (no explicitly set SDK), and setting the deployment target to 10.2. Why do I want this? To be able to use Panther-only features when my app runs on Panther.


The post did mention my "SDK is that of 10.3"; that probably gave the wrong impression. I'm not using the SDK feature at all.

Besides IIRC C++ on a Mac doesn't use dylibs, it's 99% headers and 1% libstdc++.a which is a statically linked file anyway, so even if you link against the 10.3 headers and static lib, it should function fine on an older machine. (No, I haven't actually tested this.)

Well, that's what I'd like to know :) There have been important changes to the C++ library in Panther -- proper support for wchar_t has all of a sudden made a bunch of classes available (wstring etc). It's easy to imagine that merely including a header could lead to some unwanted dependency on new features of the library. So it would be nice to get some official word on if & how this is supported.


What ever happened to backward binary compatibility -- I thought the whole idea of different Versions of the same framework was to get away from this SDK thing?
