quick question: in ~/.konan/dependencies I can see x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc-8.3.0-glibc-2.19-kernel-4.9-2 for Linux and msys2-mingw-w64-x86_64-2 for Windows. Can someone with a Mac tell me what the macOS equivalent is?

I'm trying to work out the directory with the gcc for each platform

// build.gradle.kts
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.konan.target.HostManager
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.konan.target.HostManager.Companion.hostIsLinux
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.konan.target.HostManager.Companion.hostIsMac
import org.jetbrains.kotlin.konan.target.HostManager.Companion.hostIsMingw

val konanHostBin = when {
  hostIsMingw -> "dependencies/msys2-mingw-w64-x86_64-2/bin"
  hostIsMac   -> TODO("what's the Mac dir?")
  hostIsLinux -> "dependencies/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc-8.3.0-glibc-2.19-kernel-4.9-2/bin"
  else        -> {
    logger.warn("Unknown host family ${HostManager.host.family}")
    null
  }
}

This is what I've got in ~/.konan/dependencies on my Mac.

Looks like clang-llvm-apple-8.0.0-darwin-macos is probably the one you're looking for.

[Adam S]

wonderful, thanks

at my side I don't have ...apple-8... 🙂
Still I build for ALL K/N targets from mac
and, there is no GCC for apple targets there AFAIR - only clang (which is in apple-llvm-...

BTW, why do you need specifically GCC path?

[Adam S]

hmm strange...

[Adam S]

I want to build a C library, and afaik that requires the specific gcc that Kotlin Konan uses which isn't easily downloadable. I'm on a Windows machine right now and the gcc inside dependencies/msys2-mingw-w64-x86_64-2/bin is working

[Oleg Yukhnevich]

Yeah, it should work, but for apple targets, you will need to use clang from llvm

[Adam S]

that's a problem for future me :)

[Jeff Lockhart]

Interesting, maybe that directory is specific to x64 Mac? And yeah, there's no gcc there. I just quick scanned and that directory looked the most similar with a bin subdirectory. It does have clang.
