Have you verified this? From what Ryan Schmidt wrote, I understood that it would be a weakly bound symbol. (But how to test whether the symbol is actually present at runtime, then?) What solution can you offer so that - in < 10.5, we have no error, - in >= 10.5, proc_pidinfo gets used? > It may seem like a problem that the newer system will not use the new SDK > function Yes, this is not what we want, because then get_ppid_of would be a dummy that always fails.
