We develop using Xcode 3.2 on Snow Leopard. The application we're developing however targets 10.5+ (Leopard).
I'm looking at setting up a continuous integration server (via CruiseControl).
I have an old PPC Mac Mini around. I realize that it will only run 10.5 with Xcode 3.1.3.
Am I likely to have any luck setting the Mini up as the integration server, or am I likely to run in to too many issues to make it worth the hassle and thus be better off campaigning for an Intel machine?
Some things I'm considering:
- If we start developing iPhone apps we'll be unable to build them on the PPC Mini.
- XCode project files will need to remain 3.1 compatible.
- I believe PackageMaker received an update in 10.6 as well. I'm not sure if the updated .pmproj file is backwards compatible.
