Greetings, Sorry, I didn't know that 'xcodebuild' is only available when Xcode.app is installed. Now I remember 'xcodebuild' is actually the command for building Xcode projects (Apple GUI applications) from CLI.
If you only have the command line tools, I think the Apple clang version
can uniquely identify it. In my Catalina box it's 12.0.0 and in Sonoma
it's 15.0.0:
% clang -v
Apple clang version 12.0.0 (clang-1200.0.32.29)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin19.6.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin
$ clang -v
Apple clang version 15.0.0 (clang-1500.1.0.2.5)
Target: x86_64-apple-darwin23.3.0
Thread model: posix
InstalledDir:
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Toolchains/XcodeDefault.xctoolchain/usr/bin
P.S. Now I can also build GCL 2.7.0 successfully on macOS 10.15 Catalina
outside of MacPorts. Thanks again. However, on Sonoma where MacPorts'
GCL 2.6.14 cannot build, GCL 2.7.0 also cannot build, saying something
like "ALLOCATION exceeds limits" (I didn't save logs from previous
builds, will provide more details again.)
Actually I didn't realized that GCL 2.6.14 package now can be installed
easily from MacPorts for all macOS versions from 10.6 to 13. That's
really great! I think it's time for me to first get AXIOM buildable with
external GCL 2.6.14 on macOS, first.
