Which macro to wrap Mac OS X specific code in C/C++ - c++

While reading various C and C++ sources, I have encountered two macros __APPLE__ and __OSX__. I found plenty of use of __OSX__ in various codes, especially those originating from *BSD systems.
However, sometimes I find that testing __OSX__ only is not sufficient and I have to complete tests with __APPLE__ macro.
The Porting Command Line Unix Tools to Mac OS X guides specifies __APPLE__ and additionally __APPLE_CC__ but does not mention __OSX__.
The Porting from GCC guide says:
Use #ifdef __GNUC__ to wrap any GCC-specific code.
Use #ifdef __APPLE_CC__ to wrap any Mac OS X-specific code.
Again, no mention about __OSX__ macro.
What macro is predefined on Mac OS X platform and XCode development environment that should be used to distinguish OSX-specific code in C/C++ programs?
Where is the __OSX__ macro defined? Is it *BSD specific macro?

It all depends.
Each macro specifies something different in meaning.
See: https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Porting/Conceptual/PortingUnix/compiling/compiling.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40002850-SW13
__APPLE__
This macro is defined in any Apple computer.
__APPLE_CC__
This macro is set to an integer that represents the version number of
the compiler. This lets you distinguish, for example, between compilers
based on the same version of GCC, but with different bug fixes or features.
Larger values denote later compilers.
__OSX__
Presumably the OS is a particular variant of OS X
So given the above definitions I would use __APPLE__ to distinguish apple specific code.

Here is a nice list of macros for operating systems.
There's little info on __OSX__ on the web. You'll be safe with __APPLE__.

I normally use __MACH__ for this. It's been defined since the earliest version of OS X (and even before, presumably).
If you want to exclude the possibility that you might be compiling for some other OS that uses the Mach kernel then you can use #scravy's suggestion of:
#if defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__MACH__)
Note also that if you're compiling generic C/C++ code, i.e. no Apple-speacific headers, so you are just interested in pre-defined compiler macros, you can check these as follows:
$ gcc -dM -E - < /dev/null | egrep -i 'os_|mac|apple'
#define __APPLE_CC__ 6000
#define __APPLE__ 1
#define __ENVIRONMENT_MAC_OS_X_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__ 120000
#define __ENVIRONMENT_OS_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED__ 120000
#define __MACH__ 1
#define __VERSION__ "Apple LLVM 13.1.6 (clang-1316.0.21.2.3)"
#define __apple_build_version__ 13160021

Use
#if defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__MACH__)
to distinguish Apple operating systems.
You can further use TARGET_OS_MAC and TARGET_OS_IPHONE to distinguish between macOS and iOS.
Full example:
#if defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__MACH__)
/* Apple OSX and iOS (Darwin). */
#include <TargetConditionals.h>
#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR == 1
/* iOS in Xcode simulator */
#elif TARGET_OS_IPHONE == 1
/* iOS */
#elif TARGET_OS_MAC == 1
/* macOS */
#endif
#endif
Regarding the question of "where does __OSX__ come from?":
Some on-line lists of compiler macros (like this one) list __MACOSX__. Some forum comments (like these) claim __OSX__ exists. These are incorrect. There are no such macros predefined by OSX compilers, but they may be defined by specific project Makefiles and platform-detector scripts like GNU autoconf.

For anyone coming across this question >= 2019, I found there's a header "Availability.h".
In that header, are #defines like:
#define __MAC_10_0 1000
#define __MAC_10_1 1010
#define __MAC_10_2 1020
#define __MAC_10_3 1030
#define __MAC_10_4 1040
#define __MAC_10_5 1050
#define __MAC_10_6 1060
#define __MAC_10_7 1070
#define __MAC_10_8 1080
#define __MAC_10_9 1090
#define __MAC_10_10 101000
#define __MAC_10_10_2 101002
#define __MAC_10_10_3 101003
#define __MAC_10_11 101100
#define __MAC_10_11_2 101102
So you CAN tell if you're compiling on a particular MacOS platform.

See http://nadeausoftware.com/articles/2012/01/c_c_tip_how_use_compiler_predefined_macros_detect_operating_system#OSXiOSandDarwin
#ifdef __APPLE__
#include <TargetConditionals.h>
#if TARGET_OS_MAC
...
#endif /* TARGET_OS_MAC */
#endif /* __APPLE__ */
Note that __OSX__ does NOT exist, at least as of Xcode 9.
Also note that it is #if TARGET_OS_MAC not #ifdef. It is always defined, but is 0 when not macOS.

There is no standard macro that is set according to C standard. Some C compilers will set one on some platforms (e.g. Apple's patched GCC sets a macro to indicate that it is compiling on an Apple system and for the Darwin platform). Your platform and/or your C compiler might set something as well, but there is no general way.
Like hayalci said, it's best to have these macros set in your build process somehow. It is easy to define a macro with most compilers without modifying the code. You can simply pass -D MACRO to GCC, i.e.
gcc -D Windows
gcc -D UNIX
And in your code:
#if defined(Windows)
// do some cool Windows stuff
#elif defined(UNIX)
// do some cool Unix stuff
#else
# error Unsupported operating system
#endif
Sorry for the external reference, but I think it is suited to your question:
C/C++ tip: How to detect the operating system type using compiler predefined macros
You can use Boost.Predef which contains various predefined macros for the target platform including the OS (BOOST_OS_*). Yes boost is often thought as a C++ library, but this one is a preprocessor header that works with C as well!
This library defines a set of compiler, architecture, operating system, library, and other version numbers from the information it can gather of C, C++, Objective C, and Objective C++ predefined macros or those defined in generally available headers. The idea for this library grew out of a proposal to extend the Boost Config library to provide more, and consistent, information than the feature definitions it supports. What follows is an edited version of that brief proposal.
For example
#include <boost/predef.h>
// or just include the necessary header
// #include <boost/predef/os.h>
#if BOOST_OS_WINDOWS
#elif BOOST_OS_ANDROID
#elif BOOST_OS_LINUX
#elif BOOST_OS_BSD
#elif BOOST_OS_AIX
#elif BOOST_OS_HAIKU
...
#endif
The full list can be found in BOOST_OS operating system macros
Demo on Godbolt
See also How to get platform IDs from boost?
Use #define OSsymbol and #ifdef OSsymbol
where OSsymbol is a #define'able symbol identifying your target OS.
Typically you would include a central header file defining the selected OS symbol and use OS-specific include and library directories to compile and build.
You did not specify your development environment, but I'm pretty sure your compiler provides global defines for common platforms and OSes.

I did not find Haiku definition here. To be complete, Haiku-os definition is simple __HAIKU__
Some compilers will generate #defines that can help you with this. Read the compiler documentation to determine what they are. MSVC defines one that's __WIN32__, GCC has some you can see with touch foo.h; gcc -dM foo.h
You can use pre-processor directives as warning or error to check at compile time you don't need to run this program at all just simply compile it .
#if defined(_WIN32) || defined(_WIN64) || defined(__WINDOWS__)
#error Windows_OS
#elif defined(__linux__)
#error Linux_OS
#elif defined(__APPLE__) && defined(__MACH__)
#error Mach_OS
#elif defined(unix) || defined(__unix__) || defined(__unix)
#error Unix_OS
#else
#error Unknown_OS
#endif
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
return 0;
}
I wrote an small library to get the operating system you are on, it can be installed using clib (The C package manager), so it is really simple to use it as a dependency for your projects.
Install
$ clib install abranhe/os.c
Usage
#include <stdio.h>
#include "os.h"
int main()
{
printf("%s\n", operating_system());
// macOS
return 0;
}
It returns a string (char*) with the name of the operating system you are using, for further information about this project check it out the documentation on Github.

how to undefine _MSC_VER?

I work in Visual Studio but my project is for a POSIX-based environment (marmalade sdk). In this project, the release
build is compiled with gcc for ARM but the debug version works on windows and is compiled by MS compiler. Also this environmet has its own implementation of STL and other standard libraries.
Many of these c++ librares have code like this:
#if defined( _MSC_VER )
#include <Windows.h>
#else
#include <pthread.h>
#endif
Is it possible to undefine the _MSC_VER macro? - So that the C++ libraries will detect a POSIX system here.
_MSC_VER is (and always should be) defined when compiling with the Microsoft compiler so that it "evaluates to the major and minor number components of the compiler's version number". Therefore, the code is using the wrong macro test, since it will always be defined to some value for your compiler regardless of the Windows environment differences.
Rather than destroy the definition of _MSC_VER (which could lead to other problems if any code really does want to know the compiler version), what you really should do instead is to correct the condition so that a more appropriate macro test is used that distinguishes between the kinds of Windows environments that you might encounter.
See the more complete list of predefined macros you could consider here
You could either replace the condition ...
#if someOtherConditionGoesHere
... or extend it with additional conditions, e.g.
#if defined(_MSC_VER) && someOtherConditionGoesHere
Of course:
#undef _MSC_VER
#if defined( _MSC_VER )
#include <Windows.h>
#else
#include <pthread.h>
#endif
Or, #undef it before you include the file where _MSC_VER is used.

c++ #ifdef Mac OS X question

I am fairly new to C++. I am currently working on a group project and we want to make our classes compatible with both the lab computers (Windows) and my computer (Mac OS X).
Here is what we have been putting at the top of our files:
#ifdef TARGET_OS_X
# include <GLUT/glut.h>
# include <OpenGL/OpenGL.h>
#elif defined _WIN32 || defined _WIN64
# include <GL\glut.h>
#endif
I realize this question has been asked before but my searches have been giving me conflicting answers such as "_MAC", "TARGET_MAC_OS", "MACINTOSH", etc. What is the current and correct declaration to put in the #ifdef statement to make this compatible with Mac? Right now it is not working.
Thank you!
According to this answer:
#ifdef __APPLE__
#include "TargetConditionals.h"
#ifdef TARGET_OS_IPHONE
// iOS
#elif TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
// iOS Simulator
#elif TARGET_OS_MAC
// Other kinds of Mac OS
#else
// Unsupported platform
#endif
#endif
So in short:
#ifdef __APPLE__
#include "TargetConditionals.h"
#ifdef TARGET_OS_MAC
#include <GLUT/glut.h>
#include <OpenGL/OpenGL.h>
#endif
#elif defined _WIN32 || defined _WIN64
#include <GL\glut.h>
#endif
It depends on the compiler. #ifdef __APPLE__ works for gcc.
According to Microsoft, _WIN32 will cover both the 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows. And __APPLE__ works for Clang (at least in Mavericks). So one correct way to write the ifdefs above is:
#ifdef __APPLE__
DoSomething();
#elif _WIN32
DoSomethingElse();
#else
GenerateErrorOrIgnore
Small correction: #ifdef TARGET_OS_MAC will get you always true on both OS X and iOS, as it is defines either 0 or 1 depending on platform, but when APPLE is defined, TARGET_OS_MAC is defined as well, so checking it inside the #ifdef APPLE is worthless.
You might want to use #if TARGET_OS_MAC instead. Same for all TARGET_* macros.

How to detect reliably Mac OS X, iOS, Linux, Windows in C preprocessor? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here:
How do I check OS with a preprocessor directive?
(16 answers)
Closed 3 years ago.
The community reviewed whether to reopen this question 6 months ago and left it closed:
Original close reason(s) were not resolved
If there's some cross-platform C/C++ code that should be compiled on Mac OS X, iOS, Linux, Windows, how can I detect them reliably during preprocessor process?
There are predefined macros that are used by most compilers, you can find the list here. GCC compiler predefined macros can be found here.
Here is an example for gcc:
#if defined(WIN32) || defined(_WIN32) || defined(__WIN32__) || defined(__NT__)
//define something for Windows (32-bit and 64-bit, this part is common)
#ifdef _WIN64
//define something for Windows (64-bit only)
#else
//define something for Windows (32-bit only)
#endif
#elif __APPLE__
#include <TargetConditionals.h>
#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR
// iOS, tvOS, or watchOS Simulator
#elif TARGET_OS_MACCATALYST
// Mac's Catalyst (ports iOS API into Mac, like UIKit).
#elif TARGET_OS_IPHONE
// iOS, tvOS, or watchOS device
#elif TARGET_OS_MAC
// Other kinds of Apple platforms
#else
# error "Unknown Apple platform"
#endif
#elif __ANDROID__
// Below __linux__ check should be enough to handle Android,
// but something may be unique to Android.
#elif __linux__
// linux
#elif __unix__ // all unices not caught above
// Unix
#elif defined(_POSIX_VERSION)
// POSIX
#else
# error "Unknown compiler"
#endif
The defined macros depend on the compiler that you are going to use.
The _WIN64 #ifdef can be nested into the _WIN32 #ifdef because _WIN32 is even defined when targeting the Windows x64 version. This prevents code duplication if some header includes are common to both
(also WIN32 without underscore allows IDE to highlight the right partition of code).
As Jake points out, TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR is a subset of TARGET_OS_IPHONE.
Also, TARGET_OS_IPHONE is a subset of TARGET_OS_MAC.
So a better approach might be:
#ifdef _WIN64
//define something for Windows (64-bit)
#elif _WIN32
//define something for Windows (32-bit)
#elif __APPLE__
#include "TargetConditionals.h"
#if TARGET_OS_IPHONE && TARGET_OS_SIMULATOR
// define something for simulator
// (although, checking for TARGET_OS_IPHONE should not be required).
#elif TARGET_OS_IPHONE && TARGET_OS_MACCATALYST
// define something for Mac's Catalyst
#elif TARGET_OS_IPHONE
// define something for iphone
#else
#define TARGET_OS_OSX 1
// define something for OSX
#endif
#elif __linux
// linux
#elif __unix // all unices not caught above
// Unix
#elif __posix
// POSIX
#endif
Note that above checks TARGET_OS_SIMULATOR macro because TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR macro got deprecated since iOS 14.
5 Jan 2021: link update thanks to #Sadap's comment.
Kind of a corollary answer: the people on this site have taken the time to make tables of macros defined for every OS/compiler pair.
For example, you can see that _WIN32 is NOT defined on Windows with Cygwin (POSIX), while it IS defined for compilation on Windows, Cygwin (non-POSIX), and MinGW with every available compiler (Clang, GNU, Intel, etc.).
Anyway, I found the tables quite informative and thought I'd share here.
