1. Since we have released the Xcode 2.5 seed to all ADC members,
it's okay to talk about Xcode 2.5 on Mac OS X 10.4.x (Tiger).
Thanks Scott,
I'd like to know if there have been any problems reported installing
and building with Xcode 2.5 on 10.4.x.
With this seed, there aren't any known issues with installing the
Xcode 2.5 developer tools on Tiger, though it's always a good idea to
uninstall the existing tools first.
I get the impression from the Areas Affected notes that I might have
to adapt a lot of shell script phases so that's my primary concern.
While we do segregate the command line developer tools into /Developer/
usr/bin, by default we still install those same tools into /usr/bin
and other place relative to / to provide compatibility with projects
from 2.4.1 and earlier. So you shouldn't have to make any changes to
get your projects to build.
Moving forward we are encouraging developers to use new read-only
build settings like ${DEVELOPER_DIR} or ${DEVELOPER_USR_DIR} to
reference developer tools in shell scripts from Xcode.
For example, to use bison in a script directly you'd do something like:
/usr/bin/ld
now you'd use
${DEVELOPER_USR_DIR}/bin/ld
where Xcode is passing down the location "/Developer/usr/" for
DEVELOPER_USR_DIR.
