No. > At the bottom line, what is the legitimate way of supporting older > versions of Mac OS X (10.6) in an app designed for newer ones (10.7)? There are three, potentially four things you need to do: 1. Set your app's Base SDK to Latest Mac OS X (or Mac OS X 10.7). 2. Set your app's Mac OS X Deployment Target to 10.6. 3. In your app, check the OS version on which you're running before invoking 10.7 methods. 4. If you want your app to run on 10.6 earlier than 10.6.8, don't reference (except via NSClassFromString) or subclass any new-in-10.7 classes. If you can require 10.6.8 you don't need to worry about this, because 10.6.8 supports weak-imported classes. -- Chris _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
