PowerPC & Intel Macs

[GregL]

I have some newbie questions about PureBasic and PowerPC & Intel Macs:

1) Do I need a PowerPC Mac to compile a PureBasic app to PowerPC and an Intel Mac to compile it to Intel Mac? Or can I compile to both from a single Mac?

2) If I only make a PowerPC version of a PureBasic app because I only have a PowerPC Mac and no money for an Intel Mac for now, can users with Intel Macs run it? Or do they need a version compiled to Intel Mac?


Thanks,

Greg

You need both BUT the current version of PB (v4.51) has major problems on PPC machines.

There was a post about creating universal binaries for both platforms by converting the compiled Intel version but I've not tried it and do not know if it works.
