[Flashcoders] Any issues to be concerned about with Snow Leopard
Just creating a cross platform CDROM and wondered if it is necessary to get a copy of Snow Leopard to test it on? I don't currently have this OS for my Mac Mini and would like to know if there are likely to be any issues when playing the CDROM on this new OS that I would not experience on the previous OS? ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders

Hi Paul, It's always worth a test! Snow Leopard has some significant differences from Leopard under the hood, but Apple are very good at backwards compatibility. If you're not doing anything unusual, you should be okay. But if you're prepared to put the app up on an FTP site or something, I'll happily double-check it runs on Snow Leopard for you here - I have a couple of different Snow Leopard machines. The fact it's not on CD-ROM shouldn't make any difference.

You could just make an image of the OS on a usb key and then either virtualize it, or if its an option on mac systems, boot from the usb key. Very helpful for testing and it really only takes about 45 min from start to finish to setup. Do this with all the different OS's you are tailoring your apps for, and you will only need the one machine. Due to my finally doing this myself, I am finally getting into objective-c (ugly... really ugly.) Ian Thomas wrote: Hi Paul, It's always worth a test!
