I think when looking at Xcode I saw the option to target an older
version, but any suggestions on how to do that working with the tools I
do? PyQt4 and cx_Freeze? I've asked several times on the cx_Freeze list
if it was possible but have never received a reply. Thanks.
Best regards,
Tim

/*Deploying Applications on OS X*/
/In general, Qt supports building on one OS X version and deploying
to earlier or later OS X versions. You can build on 10.7 Lion and
run the same binary on 10.6. The recommended way is to build on the
latest version and deploy to an earlier OS X version.

Is this really true??? My experience is that I need to build on the
earliest version I wish to support (10.6.8). My current workflow is to
build the app on the earliest version and then construct the dmg and
code sign on the latest! I'm developing with PyQt4/Qt5 and building with
cx_Freeze, so that may lead to this different workflow…
On OS X there is a big difference between the SDK are you using to
compile and the SDK version are you targeting.
So, typically scenario is that you build always with the latest SDK on
your machine (e.g: 10.9), but you target previous version (e.g: 10.6)…
that means your binary will run on machines running 10.6 operating
system but it can also use new features available in later version if
availables.
Ciao,
Gianluca.
