Dear Root Team.

The C++ compiler on MAC produces the following warning when I compile and build my application…

Thanks – Claude

OK. First tried to update and rebuild. Failed with the below.
Delete all and restarted from scratch. same issue.

Have you started with a completely empty “root_build” directory?

6

yes. Deleted the whole thing…

@cpruneau Try the head of the “v6-28-00-patches” or of the “master” branch.

@Axel Well, “‘cxxabi.h’ file not found” looks like:

@Wile_E_Coyote I followed your suggestion. Deleted the build and install. cloned the master and built it. It build fine. But I try to build my own libs on top then that fails with lots of errors. I wish APPLE would make fewer updates…

Maybe the (head of the) “v6-28-00-patches ” branch is less screwed.

BTW. When you start with a new ROOT version, make sure you also rebuild all your stuff completely from scratch again.

What kind of errors do you see in your own code, are they connected / related to ROOT?

@axel

Sorry – I should have posted earlier… I downloaded root once again. Made sure all former root libraries were deleted. I also updated Xcode and the associated command line tools/libs etc. My code is now running and the warnings I saw two weeks ago are now “gone”. My code compiles and runs. I thank you once again for your response and the development and support of root.
