[SOLVED] Troubles making root 6.12.06 on mac Mojave 10.14


_ROOT Version: 6.12.06
_Platform: MacOS Mojave 10.14
_Compiler: clang-1000.11.45.5 (?)


Hi all,

I get a compilation error in root 6.12.06.
I successfully built it in a separate folder from the one where I extracted the tarball, and I am making it with

cmake --build .

I get this error, and I looked for it in this forum finding a suggestion about updating Xcode like this

xcode-select --install

I did that and recompiled but in the end I get the very same error.
And yes, i did all the procedure from scratch after updating Xcode.
Any idea?

If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.

Hi Guido,

I am not sure we test 6.12 on Mojave routinely, but surely 6.14 is battle tested. Did you try to build 6.14/08?

Cheers,
Danilo

Tried with 6.14.06 and compiles. Thanks a lot!

Ciao
Guido
