@armin,  I have installed Xcode 12.4 which is the latest version supported by Mac OSX Catalina which is old stuff for the Mac and no longer supported.

Cmake reports this about it.

-- The C compiler identification is AppleClang 12.0.0.12000032
-- The CXX compiler identification is AppleClang 12.0.0.12000032

LibreCAD build document doesn't say much about what compiler, just this.

On OS/X 10.9 or newer, use spec macx-g++ is the default. Alternatively, you may use the system default clang++ compiler instead of gcc。


I'm interested because I can't build LibreCAD because of some ++17 feature that I may ask about later.


Would you consider this a more modern compiler?
Would other Mac users be using an older version than this?
