[Sdcc-user] Anyone using SDCC on MacOS 10.5.8 or earlier (ppc)?

[Philipp K. K. <pk...@sp...>]

Dear SDCC users,

up to SDCC 3.6.0, MacOS/ppc is one of the officially supported platforms
for SDCC. We are considering dropping this support for SDCC 3.7.0.

This summer, we improved compilation speed in SDCC using some C++ 11 STL
containers. The fix for bug 1995 will also use C++ 11. At this point,
rewriting SDCC to not use C++11 would require quite some effort.
There seems to be no easy way to get a C++ 11-capable compiler on MacOS
10.5.8 and earlier. MacOS 10.5.8 was the last MacOS release supporting
the ppc architecture.

Is anyone still using SDCC on MacOS 10.5.8 or earlier?

Philipp
