Sparkle

Error. Cannot link. Unit requires GC

Asked by David M

I'm using Leopard, have garbage collection required in my application. Trying to build once I've added Sparkle. I get the following error:
ld: this linkage unit requires GC. It cannot link against Retain/Release dylib: /Users/dm/oc/app/Sparkle.framework/Sparkle

I don't know what this means. Is Sparkle compatible with garbage collection in leopard?

Thanks

In order to get GC support to work, you'll have to grab the latest code through Bzr (http://andymatuschak.org/articles/2008/06/01/a-guide-to-contributing-to-sparkle/) and compile with the GC build configuration. That framework'll work.

Can you help with this problem?
