Requires X11 and bulky GTK to be installed to run Lazarus or any GUI apps created with Lazarus Ugly clunky common dialogs doesn't look like Mac software Necessary for graphical 64 bit applications The only graphical framework for macOS 10.15 Catalina and later Uses the Cocoa framework included with macOS No additional libraries or frameworks to install There may still be some minor bugs lurking please report them! No additional libraries or frameworks to install uses Carbon framework included with macOSĬocoa widgetset (see the Cocoa Interface page) The Carbon widgetset is no longer being developed. It was completely removed from macOS 10.15 Catalina (October 2019). It is not available in 64 bit macOS applications. The entire Carbon framework has been deprecated by Apple. Each has its strengths and weaknesses.Ĭarbon widgetset (see the Carbon Interface page) With macOS there are various widgetsets which can be used with Lazarus.

(There's nothing in BogoHeader.h here, but it compiles.) Here's a screenshot of the Xcode IDE just having added a bogus header file to another C++ example I've posted elsewhere, with the include visible in the project to the left column and with the #include highlighted in the displayed C++ source. To reference a project local header file in C or C++, use double quotes around the filename, and not angle brackets. File > New > select macOS > C Header File. Create a new file, of type C header file, and populate the header file accordingly. Your choices here are to use Xcode and not the Code::Blocks as your IDE (which'll mean less or no support from the instructor), or boot and use Windows or another supported platform directly or as a guest and use Code::Blocks, or re-port and support Code::Blocks to macOS-that you found something that ~works may or may not be helpful, if there are issues found later.Īs for the H file with Xcode, add it to the project.

This was recently asked elsewhere, and that IDE doesn't work very well if at all on any recent macOS, and macOS support appears to have been withdrawn.
