Star-Dust Expert Licensed User Longtime User Nov 25, 2025 #1 with the new compiler based on xcframeworks is it necessary to recompile all the B4I libraries we created to make them work correctly? If we recompile them will they work with those who have an older version of B4i? Thank you

Click to expand... Recommended but not mandatory. To use an old library with B4i v10+ you need to update its header file and change the imports of frameworks. For example: Code: Copy #import <iCore/iCore.h> #import "iSD_CreativeBackground.h" //not needed because it references a non-framework library #import <iXUI/iXUI.h> #import <iBitmapCreator/iBitmapCreator.h> Note that old libraries will not work with ARM simulators.

Frameworks will not work with old versions of B4i, however old versions will be soon obsolete. Upvote 0
