Re: Building a 64-bit Preferences Pane
I just realized that the dev forums for Mac is only available for Select or Premier member of ADC, not the online member. Do you mind to share the solution ?

Re: Building a 64-bit Preferences Pane
Okay thanks, I also found the solution from a blog somewhere while searching. It's weird how Apple lay out all of the important things about 64-bit in the docs, but left out this one somewhere that I couldn't find easily. I also ran the script to check for 64-bit compatibility, added the proper #ifdef for it (it's only about data types). 2009/9/18 MATSUMOTO Satoshi sato...@mac.com: Hi, Building 64-bit Preferences Pane... In response to satoshi on Apr 30, 2009 2:21 PM I have been trying to make a simple 64-bit Preference Pane on Snow Leopard buid 10A335. But all trials ended in failure. For example: 1) Make a new preference pane project SamplePrefPane with Xcode. 2) Set the build option ARCHS to x86_64 3) Build it and double click SamplePrefPane.prefPane ANSWER 2.5) turn on Garbage Collection. (Search for garbage collection in build settings inspector) On Snow Leopard, System Preferences has garbage collection enabled when launched as a 64 bit application (default on 64 bit capable machines). If you intend on supporting both 32 bit and 64 bit machines, you'll need to build your preference pane as a dual mode module; gc supported instead of gc only. Then System Preferences app says: Preferences Error You can't open SimplePrefPane preferences because it doesn't work on an Intel-based Mac. That is a horribly failure message. Please file a bug via http://bugreporter.apple.com/.

Garbage collection and 64-bit are orthogonal issues. A process can be one, both, or neither. If you're building a bundle to be loaded by another app, use otool on the app to figure out what kind of bundle you need to be. --Kyle Sluder ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: Building a 64-bit Preferences Pane
Hi Satoshi, If you run this in Terminal: Bugdom:~ kiel$ file /Applications/System\ Preferences.app/Contents/ MacOS/System\ Preferences /Applications/System Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System Preferences: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures /Applications/System Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System Preferences (for architecture i386): Mach-O executable i386 /Applications/System Preferences.app/Contents/MacOS/System Preferences (for architecture ppc7400): Mach-O executable ppc You can see the System Preferences application is not a 64 bit application (at least, not yet). Therefore, you cannot make a 64 bit preference pane. Kiel On 30/04/2009, at 12:48 PM, 慧 松本 wrote: I have been trying to make a simple 64-bit preference pane. But all trials ended in failure.
