Enhancement: Upgrade Xcode out of 9.x

Open rdrpenguin04 opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

Currently, the Xcode installed by default on Darling (using xcode-select --install) is significantly out of date; checking Clang version against a version table reveals the Xcode version to be either 9.4 or 9.4.1. It would be useful to upgrade to a newer version; current stable release is 12.5.1.

I intend to test this myself; this issue exists in case I don't get around to it.

Steps:

  • [ ] Test Xcode version 12.5.1 on Darling (and if it doesn't work, file an issue and test older versions)
  • [ ] PR change setting new default version

Update: Xcode 12.5.1 doesn't work, in some part due to /usr/lib/libMobileGestalt.dylib not existing. I don't particularly feel like going through the process of extracting another Xcode XIP right now, and I won't have time for a while; IMO, getting stubs for that library would be useful, and it could help other programs as well.

Does 12.5 work?
