Feel free to add more Big Sur incompatibilities to this thread as you encounter them.
If they are all in one place they are easier to find...
Hi,
Since i upgraded to Big Sur, one of my application doesn't compile anymore. I get a linker error :
Code: Select all
clang: error: no such file or directory: '/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation'
That's weird because my other applications compile without problems. I've reinstalled Xcode command line tools, but i still have the issue.
If someone have an idea
Thanks !

First I thought there might be a call to a OS function that was deprecated years ago.
But on my machine under: “/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/”
There is no “CoreFoundation” but “Resources” and “Versions”.
Can you list the PureBasic libraries that are pulled into this app, but are not in the apps that compile?

On both Catalina and Mojave I see CoreFoundation.framework contains this...
And "CoreFoundation" is a link to "Versions/A/CoreFoundation"

Found some info:

Bottom line:
Apple wrote:
New in macOS Big Sur 11 beta, the system ships with a built-in dynamic linker cache of all system-provided libraries. As part of this change, copies of dynamic libraries are no longer present on the filesystem. Code that attempts to check for dynamic library presence by looking for a file at a path or enumerating a directory will fail. Instead, check for a library presence by attempting to dlopen() the path, which will correctly check for the library in the cache.
I think this problem arises from the fact that system files and directories are treated differently on Big Sur than on prior macOS versions:

Suppose PureBasic needs to be updated for Big Sur...

My MacBookAir mid-2012 doesn't support Big Sur, so I can't investigate for now. Will try to find a way to.

Hi Fred,
I've managed to install Big Sur on VMWare Workstation. Not a big deal, but i guess it's better on a "real" Mac !

OMG !!!
I know why my app doesn't compile !!
My code uses this ImportC
Code: Select all
ImportC "/System/Library/Frameworks/CoreFoundation.framework/CoreFoundation"
CGEventCreate(source)
CGEventGetFlags(event)
CFRelease(cf)
EndImport
This part of the code was meant to capture the Option Key pressed at startup (i think i used Wilbert's example here :
viewtopic.php?f=13&t=51755)
I guess i need to find out another way to do this !!
I'm sorry I haven't seen this before in my code !!

does it help if you change the ImportC line into this ?
Code: Select all
ImportC "-framework CoreFoundation"

This is something I’ve always appreciated about this forum:
Great help and an awesome attitude.
Fred, I suppose you are off the hook on this one

One way is to buy a new MacBook Air with M1
