Mac Forum / Programming / CodeWarrior / December 2003Why does Codewarrior want to compile for Mac OS 8?
Hi, I have Codewarrior v9 for the Mac and I created a shared lib project using the carbon libraries and the compiler keeps thinking that I am working with Mac OS 8. I tried using a prefix file for the project but it is still using the header file from the Universal Headers to get its definitions. Any ideas on what could be missing here? Thanks in advance!

Thanks in advance! if your project is CFM then the Universal headers are the right ones to use. If not, then did you create your project as a Mach-O project? Fred I created an empty project and I set the PPC Target as "Shared Library". This project is identical to another one I did and the older one doesn't have any problems.

That sounds distinctly like a CFM project to me (for starters, i have PPC Mac OS X Target). What linker are you using? Fred > Jaime Rios > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > > > Fred PPC linker.

I know the names of the linkers and tools could be better named, but I'll be darned if I can come up with better names. The PEF/CFM carbon tools have had that name for a long time and the Mach-O ones have Mac OS X in the name. The access paths will ultimately determine which headers are included, if you have Mac OS Support it will get the CFM Carbon headers if you have Mac OS X support it will get the OS X ones. If I've just confused you please continue to ask questions. It isn't hard to understand but I can see it could be confusing.

By the way if you are doing Carbon and want it to run on OS 8/9 and OS X be sure you have the right Carbon Resource and plist for it.

Create a new Mach-O based project. |
