SQL Ultralite library won't build under Xcode 5

[Former Member]

With the removal of the GCC toolset from XCode 5, how are we supposed to build the iOS ultralite library as per the instructions? I added the command line tools to XCode 5, but Apple completely discontinued GCC with XCode.

After installing 4.6.3 instead and the command line tools, I get the following errors, looks like it can't find header files. Any thoughts?

Which version/build of SQL Anywhere are you using? This does not look current (because the script prompts for which SDK to use…), and this may be a problem that's already fixed. Can you update to the latest EBF/SP?

[Former Member]

According to the About box 12.0.1.3152

Is this not the current version? This is what the procurement people gave me.

Thanks for the help.

[former_SQLA_member1694876]

That is the original 12.0.1 release. There have been several updates since. The current is 12.0.1.3958.

You can find the Mac OS X 12.0.1.3958 update here:

There is a fix in progress for this. (As well as adding 64-bit support.) Clang will be used to compile the library.

As a workaround in the meantime, you can build the library against Xcode 4 and use it with Xcode 5.

[Former Member]

Could you provide any updates about migrating to Clang compiler as well as 64-bit support?

[VolkerBarth]

According to that older CR note, Xcode 5 support has been available for some time (including 64-bit support for 12.0.1 though the note does tell otherwise). AFAIK, supporting XCode 5 requires Clang support.

UltraLite now supports Xcode 5 and iOS 7. Version 16 includes 64-bit libraries for the new A7 (arm64) chip along with the 64-bit simulator.

[former_SQLA_member1694876]

Indeed, the latest SPs for v12 and v16 support Xcode 6/iOS 8 and all chips, including 64-bit.

[former_SQLA_member1694876]

The build script (build.sh) invokes make to build, and the makefile invokes the compiler as: xcrun -sdk iphoneos gcc

That is, we don't try to find the compiler path ourselves...

You can see this in build.log, which is written beside build.sh. (build.sh just redirects the make output here.) (It's true we invoke 'gcc', but this is really just clang now.)
