    I built my application with Desktop Qt 5.2.1 clang 64bit on OS X 10.8.5. I can launch the app on the machines with OS X 10.8.5 installed but failed to launch it on OS X 10.9.2. The error message is like this:

    I checked the app bundle and /Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/libs/libc++abi.dylib is there. I did some search and there are many similar casees but I can't figure out why. I need some help. Thanks!

      Hi and welcome to devnet,

      Can you show your main.cpp content ?

        Why is libc++abi.dylib, a system library located at /usr/lib/libc++abi.dylib, is in your Resources?

        /usr/lib/libobjc.dylib depends on libc++abi.dylib and I don't think mixing 10.8 and 10.9 libs in this way will ever give you stable results. You're lucky it does not launch...

          @SGaist: Thank you for your msg. Actually it's a software from the third party. We are trying to make updates to the software. The third party built the update1.pkg and we built the update2.pkg. We use the same source codes. We can install and launch update1.app on Os x 10.8.5 and 10.9.4 but we can only launch update2.app on 10.8.5 and not on 10.9.4. Then we used the .app file supplied by the third party to make update3.pkg file. This time we are able to launch update3.app on both 10.8.5 and 10.9.4.
          When we use Sparkle to update current version to update1, the app updates and launches on Os x 10.8.5 and 10.9.4. However, when we update from update1 to update3, the update succeeds but the app launches only on 10.8.5 not on 10.9.4. I got the same error msg as I reported. I am not sure if this is related to SDK. I am using MacOSX10.8.sdk.

              Wow, so they are trying to ship their own full stack of C++ standard libraries from llvm instead of using the OS ones, libc++.1.dylib and libc++abi.dylib:

              /Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/libs/libc++.1.dylib
              /Applications/MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/libs/libc++abi.dylib

              Why? are they trying to use C++11 on an older OS version (10.6) that doesn't have those?

              I have no idea if this is possible at all in an application that uses objective-c...

                @sandy.martel: They ship C++ source, .pro file and related frameworks. C++ standard libraries should be from OS itself. The compilation command line is:

                /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/clang++ -headerpad_max_install_names -F/Library/Frameworks -Wl,-syslibroot,/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.8.sdk -stdlib=libc++ -mmacosx-version-min=10.7-F/Applications/QT5.2.1/5.2.1/clang_64/lib -framework Appkit -framework Foundation -F/Library/Frameworks -framework SPARKLE -framework QtWebKitWidgets -framework QtQuick -framework QtQml -framework QtNetwork -framework QtCore -framework QtGui -framework QtMultimediaWidgets -framework QtMultimedia -framework QtWidgets -framework QtOpenGL -framework QtPrintSupport -framework QtWebKit -framework QtSql -framework QtPositioning -framework QtSensors -framework QtXml -framework OpenGL -framework AGL

                When I build the project,

                MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/libs/libc++.1.dylib
                MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/libs/libc++abi.dylib
                MyApp.app/Contents/Resources/libs/libSystem.B.dylib

                are already there. We have the following in .pro file:

                CPP 11

                CPLUSPLUSELEVEN.files = libs
                CPLUSPLUSELEVEN.path = Contents/Resources
                QMAKE_BUNDLE_DATA += CPLUSPLUSELEVEN
                CONFIG += c++11

                But macosx-version-min=10.7.

                In your first email, you mentioned /usr/lib/libobjc.dylib depends on libc++abi.dylib and they are from 10.8 and 10.9 libs, respectively?

                  You can deploy applications compiled with -std=c++11 -stdlib=libc++ from 10.7 and up, no need to ship additional c++ libs. Keep the CONFIG+= c++11, get rid of the rest. Note that stock Qt is still compiled for 10.6, so linked against a different c++ lib (the gcc one), you might have to recompile Qt yourself with the c++11 config.

                    Hi Sandy, I did what you suggested and it worked out. Thanks! I also checked that the application is only linked against system libs now.
