[5.31] El Capitan Linker Error

[erion]

Hi all,
PureBasic apps will not compile on either the public beta or the developer previews of Os X 10.11 el Capitan, displaying a linker error:

ld: library not found for -lgcc_s.10.5clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Did you install XCode?
You also need the command line tools.
(It's a separate install through XCode)

I'm using Xcode 6.4 with the command line tools installed.

Try XCode 7 beta.

[erion]

Thanks, this seems to have solved my problem.
For some reason other native apps compile with Xcode 6.4, but not PB apps, as they need Xcode 7.
I'm leaving this topic here as it might be useful, at least until Xcode 7 gets released.

I just installed El Capitan with XCode 7.0.1 and PB seems to be running fine with 5.40b9x64. I did the standard install from the App Store.

Thanks for the report !

PB 5.42 LTS on EL Capitan with Xcode 7.3.

Linker error "id: file not found: string.a clang error: linker command failed with exit code 1"
This is with a simple debug "hello world" command.

The solution is to download PB 5.42 again.
