Upgraded to macOS High Sierra 10.13.2 ... linker problems
« on: January 11, 2018, 01:56:55 am »
I use Lazarus 1.8.0

No other changes to working system than upgrading macOS

Now when compiling I get

Exit code 256
An error occured while linking
Error while linking

Not sure where to start looking for problem

Try set i386 as cpu target explicitly

Hi

Okay - I have set "Tools | Configure build Lazarus" to Target CPU i386 - and this appears to work until compiling Indy - then that as always breaks ad the idStreamVCL issue.

...

Anyhow - my problem is for a project of mine that compiled fine earlier - I am not trying to compile Lazarus.

I have gotten a bit further. I was able to in addition to earlier reported error also get:

file not found: /usr/lib/crt1.o
An error occured while linking
Error while linking

...

Update: I will try redownload xcode commandline tools: xcode-select -- install (seems to hang) and investigate further (seems GCC related as well)

Seems my xcode / commandline tools installation got reset by the High Sierra upgrade.

I have now downloaded xcode 9.2 and command line tools (the latter manually from Apple developer downloads)

It appears to work now - but I will return if I find other issues

If you're having issues, try changing the compiler executable setting (in IDE Options -> Environment -> Files), change "fpc" at the end of it to "ppc386". This solved all compiler-related issues I was having on Mac (I'm also on High Sierra).

If doing this, make sure to compile against the Carbon widgetset rather than Cocoa.
