It doesn't matter, since someone still needs to put in the work to upgrade it first... In this case it needs the MacOSX10.6.sdk to compile, which Apple doesn't provide anymore. The port is already banned from even trying, so there is no way to install wxMac there: "wxWidgets cannot build on 10.7 with Xcode >= 4.4, please use port wxWidgets-devel instead" See http://trac.macports.org/ticket/35372 So to have a chance of building with latest Xcode, it needs to be ported to wxOSX first... If someone is interested in doing that, then volunteer at http://forums.codeblocks.org/ > If this software is not incompatible with clang, then certainly don't > blacklist clang; instead, allow MacPorts to choose clang as the compiler and > do not alter configure.compiler. I'll keep the current workaround for Lion. It matches the settings for the wxWidgets port. Supposedly one could get it working with clang and wxGTK instead... Then again, why bother ? Once the Mac OS X 10.6 SDK (i.e. Snow Leopard, Xcode < 4.4) is not supported, delete the port. There is a binary installation of Code::Blocks, if really needed... Even uses the 10.4u.sdk. But since it is using Carbon it also means that it only runs as 32-bits, as in: ppc/i386. --anders _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
