A few version numbers to help put the issue in context -
- macOS 10.14
- CLion 2019.2.2
- PlatformIO 4.0.3
- espressif32 1.10.0
- toolchain-xtensa32 2.50200.80
I’ve used PIO + CLion successfully before, and it’s an amazing combination of tools. For whatever reason, I went to use it tonight and when I create my first empty .cpp file in a new PIO project, I get an error in the CMake output frame:
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++
-- Check for working CXX compiler: /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin/c++ -- works

Problems were encountered while collecting compiler information:
xtensa-esp32-elf-g++: error: unrecognized command line option '-mmacosx-version-min=10.14'
The specific platform (nodemcu, esp32thing) doesn’t seem to matter.
I tried removing the ‘espressif32’ platform and re-installing it, to no avail. Cross compilers and such are way outside my area of expertise, but the binary xtensa-esp32-elf-g++ --help
says that -m
options will be passed to subprocesses:
Options starting with -g, -f, -m, -O, -W, or --param are automatically
passed on to the various sub-processes invoked by xtensa-esp32-elf-g++.
There’s also a --target-help
which lists some -m
options, but none of them are macos-version-min
I have a sneaking suspicion that maybe somehow Xcode is a culprit here, only because it usually is, but I don’t know where to look.
Any ideas, or information I can provide to help troubleshoot? thanks!
Edit: I went hunting for strings in the cmake-build-<platform>
directory and came across this. I don’t know if it matters, it stood out to me since I’m on 10.14 not 10.15, but the Xcode(!) path being referenced is 10.15.
