    What if I'm still running Tiger, but the only download I see is for Leopard? The PDF says that the version listed is for Leopard only.
  • Quinn McHenry · 1 year ago
    Keep looking down the list.. you'll need a version 2.x of the developer tools. Like this:

    Xcode 2.5 Developer Tools
    Xcode 2.5 is an update release of Xcode developer tools, providing bug fixes over Xcode 2.4.1. Xcode 2.5 can be installed on Tiger (Mac OS X 10.4) or on Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5).

    Keep searching, IT IS there. I went into the same issue, the default xcode that appear in the page is 3.x, but you need 2.5, it's the latest for Tiger.
    I searched in the site in the developer tools section, yeah I know it's annoying.

    Thanks much! Minor change -- you first click on "Mac OSX", then there's XCode Tools in the resulting list.

    Hi,
    Thanks for the instructions. The path has changed slightly.
    Once you log in, go to: Downloads -> Developer Tools -> Xcode 3.1.2 Developer Tools and download the package called Xcode 3.1.2 Developer Tools DVD (Disk Image)

    Cheers!

    The 'gcc compiler' is installed when one installs 'XcodeTools' (via the 'XcodeTools.mpkg' file) from the installation CD (if installing Panther [MacOS X 10.3.x] or earlier) / DVD - in the '/Xcode Tools/' folder.

    Or, in the CDs' / DVDs' '/Xcode Tools/Packages/' folder is / are the 'gccx.x.pkg' (where s.x is the version number) installer file(s).

    Some Apple forum members managed to figure out that the most up to date and final release of Xcode for Tiger is v 2.5. You can find the link to the Xcode package at http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messa...

    Hi,
    I've been installed the powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1. I'm now concerned with an error message from typing 'gcc -Version' into console:

    ''powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1: couldn't run '/usr/bin/powerpc-apple-darwin9-gcc-ersion': No such file or directory"

    This seems to be obvious, because the letter 'v' from version is missing. But where have I look at to correct this mistake ?

    The GNU Compiler for Java (GCJ or gcj), a free software compiler for the Java programming language, forms part of the GNU Compiler Collection.... The GNU Compiler Collection is a full-featured ANSI C compiler..

    I have an Mac with OS a version 10.5.8. I recently installed Xcode v3.1.3 and I started to get errors and warnings in compiling programs with gcc, such as:
    " ..... incompatible implicit declaration of built-in function 'ceil' "
    Can someone help me?

    Can you tell me how to install CGAL in MAC
  • Kurt Bigler · 2 weeks ago
    As a long-time XCode user it has been installed on my Mac for years, and I have applied updates occasionally. Nonetheless gcc is not located at /usr/bin/gcc (which has not been an issue until now since I don't normally use the command line for compiling). It is however, located at /Developer/usr/bin/gcc. So I added /Developer/usr/bin/gcc to my path, hoping that would let me use gcc and make to build libjpeg under Leopard. (Aside: Apple's own jpeg support via "Image IO" appears to ignore the specified "quality" for jpeg compression).

    However the ./configure script for libjpeg says:

    configure: error: installation or configuration problem: C compiler cannot create executables.

    But at least now that I altered my $PATH it recognizes that gcc is present.

    I have not tried to debug the configure script, but figure I am missing something basic, or else XCode installation practices have changed. My XCode is 3.1.1, and gcc from the command line says "i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1".
  • Kurt Bigler · 2 weeks ago
    FIXED: I installed XCode 3.1.4 and it resolved the problem. It also installed gcc in /usr/bin so I no longer have to alter my $PATH.
