Delphi 11 - Is MACOS defined in OSXARM64 platform?

[vfbb 285]

According to the Alexandria docwiki, the new OSXARM64 platform is defined for OSX directive but not defined for MACOS directive, which doesn't make sense since MACOS directive has always been defined for OSX and iOS.

 

 

Unfortunately I don't have any mac arm to confirm. Can anyone confirm this?

You don't need mac to compile units. Just use command line compiler to compile this unit:

unit def;
interface
implementation
{$if defined(MACOS)}
 {$message hint 'MACOS defined'}
{$endif}
end.

@Kazantsev Alexey Truth! It didn't cross my mind to use compile time messages.

 

I took the test and confirmed the suspicion. MACOS is defined in OSXARM64. Docwiki is wrong.

Issue reported.
