Re: iOS 7 went GM

Can anyone confirm that Apple does not take new apps unless compiled with
Xcode 5? We submitted 2 updates yesterday using Xcode 4.6.3, no problems so
far..

As Shaz said, soon they will not. After iOS7 is out. 

There is still however a reason to support older Xcode version because 
enterprises can distribute their own apps.

Enterprises can already do so with Xcode 5 since our deployment target is
iOS 5.0 (like usual). We just have to be careful (like when we upgraded to
iOS 6.0 support) to conditionally use any iOS 7 APIs... which since we are
not really using any (except for some UIWebView new properties that we
would have to support, which will be properly guarded against, which we
have done before for iOS 6 - 5)

Re: iOS 7 went GM

2013-09-12 Thread Shazron
In any case, this method below has worked for supporting older SDKs in a
newer IDE even before Xcode 5:
http://blog.spacemanlabs.com/2013/09/how-to-support-old-ios-sdks-in-xcode-5/

... which might give a compile-time check that you are using iOS 7 APIs
dynamically by compiling with the actual iOS 6 SDK
