Delphi 12.1 with MacOS version and iOS version

[Peter J. 0]

May I ask for Delphi 12.1, which is the highest MacOS version I can install and the highest iOS SDK that I can install and still be able to compile without errors?

(using SQlite in my appt, if that matters)

 

How about for Delphi 12.2 when I eventually upgrade?

 

thanks for the advice!

You should be able to use the latest version of macOS (15.3). The issue will the highest version of Xcode, which for Delphi 12.1 is Xcode 16.1, as there were changes to Xcode 16.2 related to provisioning profiles that are not handled by Delphi 12.1, but is by Delphi 12.2

ok thanks Dave! I'm asking as reverting to an earlier OS would be non-trivial!

I assume that iOS would follow the same Xcode 16.1?

I'll be having an iPhone with iOS 18.3.
Would that be a problem deploying from Delphi 12.1 to this device.
I assume I'll upgrade my MacOS to 15.3 and use XCode 16.1
(Minimum MacOS to run XCode 16.1 is Sonoma 14.5, from what I checked)

 

I won't use any new features in iOS 18.3 - just basic features already found in

lower iOS sdks such as iOS SDK 14 or 15.

Will this cause any problem?

I'm asking because if I buy the iPhone (18.3) and then is stuck with it as I will not be upgrading to 12.2 for a while.

Thanks for any advice!

I'm using macOS 15.3, Xcode 16.2 with an iOS 18.3 device with no issues, other than being unable to debug (which has been a problem since iOS 17).

Thanks for the feedback, Dave.  I believe you are using Delphi 12.2?

Could I ask if anyone has problems with Delphi 12.1, XCode 16.1 with an iOS 18.3?
(given you mentioned that Delphi 12.1 does not work with XCode 16.2)
