General compatibility between Xcode and macOS
I'm confused by documentation and information I found regarding compatibility between versions of Xcode and macOS. The site https://developer.apple.com/support/xcode/ is listing "Minimum OS required". To my understanding it means "this particular version of macOS and all later/newer versions". Also release notes for Xcode are consistently stating "Xcode xx.x. requires a Mac running macOS yy.yy.y or later." But I also found statements like " In general, new versions of macOS will not run old versions of Xcode." in this forum, see https://forums.developer.apple.com/forums/thread/760737, which is the opposite to "requires macOS version X or later". I'm also experiencing issues when trying to run Xcode 12.4 on macOS 14.5 (Sonoma), means XCode is not running. It would be great if some of Apple Engineers here would shed some light on it :-) Many thanks in advance! Cheers, Elena
