Hi,
I would like know what is the minimum Livecode version to compile as 64b ready for iOS11.
I have an old app made on LC6 that need be compiled.
Thanks in advance,
Josep M

Hi Josep,
Support for 64bit iOS apps was first added in LiveCode 6.7.2.
You can verify that your standalone includes a 64bit slice using the "file" command. Just type the following in a terminal:
Code: Select all
file /path/to/myApp.app/Contents/myApp
If you get something like:
Code: Select all
panoss-MBP:~ panos$ file /Users/panos/Desktop/myApp1/myApp.app/myApp
/Users/panos/Desktop/myApp1/myApp.app/myApp: Mach-O universal binary with 2 architectures: [arm_v7: Mach-O executable arm_v7] [arm64]
/Users/panos/Desktop/myApp1/myApp.app/myApp (for architecture armv7): Mach-O executable arm_v7
/Users/panos/Desktop/myApp1/myApp.app/myApp (for architecture arm64): Mach-O 64-bit executable arm64
panoss-MBP:~ panos$
then it means your iOS standalone does support 64bit.
Best,
Panos
