CCL 1.11.6 fails on OSX 10.15

[stoney]

Launching CCL 1.11.6 on Catalina (MacOSX 10.15) opens the AltConsole with:

Error: Objective-C runtime exception:
-[__NSSingleEntryDictionaryI _setViewsNeedUpdateConstraints:]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x6000002014c0
While executing: #<Anonymous Function #x3000011076FF>, in process Initial(0).

IIRC, 1.11 was already flaky on Mojave. Try the 1.12 dev version, and hopefully someone will chime in with whether that works, so I'll know whether to upgrade MY Mac.

Don't use 1.12dev.5 . It fails on 10.15. Don't upgrade 10.15

But 1.11.6 on Catalina can work. You need enter 1.11.6 in terminal, and rebuild cocoa-application.

Got this in the App Store version 1.11.6:

Error: Objective-C runtime exception:

Before the app freeze you can still do (+ 1 3)

For some reason, the current app store version is failing this way.

I have done some experimentation, and rebuilding from source produces a working binary. However, there is an issue with Xcode 11.1: the assembler doesn't build a couple of lisp kernel files. Installing Xcode 10.3 and using xcode-select to use the Xcode 10.3 tools enables it to work.

I have started working on an updated app store submission. I expect I'll have to learn about notarization (and hence the hardened runtime stuff) now.

Great. I guess as always upgrade to new os should take care on our user side. Waiting and if you need beta users, I guess we are here. :-)

Hi all :-)

Matthew have you any hope to produce an upgrade app store version in the next future or is it a complicated matter requiring a lot fo work ?
In any case, thanks again for the great work you do on CCL !

Best wishes.

[PierreBessiere]

Ca marche !!!

Thanks a lot Matthew, you saved my life ;-)

Best wishes.

The app store CCL works on Catalina, but it seems to be flaky/broken on Mojave now.

In an earlier comment, I mentioned that the Xcode 11.1 assembler didn't like some of CCL's assembly-language file.

I just submitted a bug report to Apple (FB7464217).

This is the sample code, extracted from ccl sources. Note that I'm passing -Q because the ccl assembly code includes .stabs directives, which the llvm assembler doesn't support.

/* assemble with as -Q -g -arch x86_64 bus.s */

/* fails with assembler included with Xcode 11 -- Xcode 11.1.2 at least */

/* works on Xcode 10.3 or earler */
