PureBasic 5.44 LTS is available !

Post by Fred »

Hello,

A bug fix version of the current LTS branch is available as beta. It fix important Linux issues and brings a new way to install the app on OS X to comply with OSX Sierra. Now the whole purebasic directory is embedded in the PureBasic.app, so if you need to use the commandline, you will have to add the path PureBasic.app/MacOS/Content/Resources/compiler to the $PATH

- final version is out !

- beta 4 is available with some more bug fixes

- beta 3 is available and bring more bug fixes mainly on OS X

- beta 2 is out and bring more bug fixes

It's on your online account, have fun !

How does this work with multiple PureBasic installations ?

The temporary workaround I posted to compile with XCode 8, resulted in a minimum requirement of OSX 10.7.
How is this with 5.44 LTS (MacOS, 64 bits) ? Do compiled executables still work on OSX 10.6 ?

What do you mean by multiple PureBasic installations ? You can just rename the app and it should be OK

I think 64 bit will only support OSX 10.7, it's an old OS anyway now. If you want to target it, you can still ship a 32-bit version.

I noticed the drag to applications folder. I simply hadn't thought about renaming the app after it has been dragged there.
Good to know that it is that simple.

No problem. I'm all for moving forward; don't care about leaving behind OSX 10.6 . :)
It's just good to know what the minimum OS version is that compiled applications require. That's all.

Thanks for the beta.

Woe says me! I use Snow Leopard every day. Glad to see the 32bit version runs on it though. Thanks for the update. ;)

It true that if you want to install both it's a bit messy, may be I should rename the x86 one ? (PureBasic 32-bit.app)

I would prefer _x86 instead of _32.
It's simply more common.

Everything installed, the 5.43 runs smoothly. Very strange.
