Interesting, how did you get fpcupdeluxe to run on a Mac? I tried downloading: fpcupdeluxe-x86_64-darwin-cocoa.zip from here: https://github.com/LongDirtyAnimAlf/fpcupdeluxe/releases Drag the downloaded file into the Applications folder Clicking on that produced the error: The application "fpcupdeluxe-x86_64-darwin-cocoa" can't be opened -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
Re: [Lazarus] Install Lazarus on Mac OSX Catalina
Some experiences having just tried moving my main application to Cocoa without upgrading to Catalina. The results look very promising, and my application looks usable, though I didn't try running 64 bit Lazarus. i can make the following observations: 1. For 32 bit compilation you need to avoid upgrading to the latest xcode; 10.3 looks like the last one that has the required 32 bit components. Older versions of xcode can be downloaded from the Apple developer site, and at least some co-existence is possible. (I ended up with 10.3 installed in my home directory.) 2. I typically compile with all range checks on, and this triggered some range checks in the widegt set - see https://bugs.freepascal.org/view.php?id=36171 3. Fixed point fonts can have non-integer spacings; I was using CarbonWidgetSet.SetTextFractional(Canvas, False) but this does not seem to be available under Cocoa so I had to specify the spacing in ExtTextOut. 4. Polyline, at least for large numbers of points. seems to be 10 times slower than under Carbon, which is itself slower than other OS's 5. For compiling trunk FPC I use: FPC=~/fpc/bootstrap/ppc386 make distclean DEBUG=1 install PREFIX=~/usr CPU_SOURCE=i386 OPT=-Fl/Users/me/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib to compile a 32 bit compiler to ~/usr starting from a 32 bit compiler and FPC=~/fpc/bootstrap/ppcx64 make distclean DEBUG=1 install PREFIX=~/usr64 CPU_SOURCE=x86_64 OPT=-Fl/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX.sdk/usr/lib to compile a 64 bit compiler to ~/usr64 starting from a 64 bit compiler. I add symbolic links in the two directories: for f in usr usr64 ; do cd ~/$f/bin if [ ! -L ppc386 ] ; then ln -s ~/usr/lib/fpc/$VER/ppc386 ; fi if [ ! -L ppcx64 ] ; then ln -s ~/usr64/lib/fpc/$VER/ppcx64 ; fi done and with this setup lazarus can pick up the two compilers.

Re: [Lazarus] Install Lazarus on Mac OSX Catalina
I'm not on Catalina yet, but I tried building a cross compiler for Cocoa with 64bit OSX earlier today and failed. It seems that Lazarus on OSX can't see a 64bit compiler if you use cross install. What I thought would work was: make all make install INSTALL_PREFIX=`pwd` crossinstall OS_TARGET=darwin CPU_TARGET=x86_64 INSTALL_PREFIX=`pwd` Then I copied ./lib/version/ppc and ./lib/version/ppcross to ./bin/ and created a valid ./bin/fpc.cfg Then I built Lazarus. I tried building with widgetset as Cocoa and CPU are x86_64 but I could not get the make to work. Then I tried building Lazarus normally, and changing a new project to use 64bit and Lazarus would have none of it, arguing that the current compiler does not support x86_64. Eventually I gave up on building it myself and used fpcudeluxe instead to install a Cocoa 64bit compiler and Lazarus. If anyone has any tips on how to manually create a FPC and Lazarus that support compilation to both 32 and 64bit, or even just a 64bit Cocoa only version, I'd appreciate any help. I could probably figure it out, but it would save me a lot of time in re-compiling. Thanks -- ___ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus

I would also imagine you can't use the official FPC 3.0.4 Install which includes only a cross-compiler for 64-bit (but the ppc* executable is 32-bit). So you need a true 64-bit FPC, not a cross-compiler. Take all this information with a pitch of salt though. ;-) I can't even get my MacBook to run because of outdate XCode, Apple wanting to force me to install Catalina to get a working XCode, and because my AppleID has been locked (G*D knows why!).

Probably not helpful now, but don't ever just upgrade your OS to a new major version without doing some research first. Catalina breaks a lot of things! Plus the one major thing is that Apple completely removed 32-bit support - probably the issue you are now experiencing.

Re: [Lazarus] Install Lazarus on Mac OSX Catalina
The Carbon widget set along with all 32-bit code are not available in 10.15, which means you need to build Lazarus with the Cocoa widgets. I had to build my version from sources because I was told the Cocoa widgets are “alpha”, but that really needs to be upgraded to stable and released to the public already.
