MacOS 10.15 Catalina Support

[mgriebling]

Hi,

Just wondering when we could expect MacOS 10.15 Catalina support for DipTrace?
We may have to upgrade to this OS in the near future in order to support our App development.

I'd also like to get an update when a release will be available for Catalina. Apple released OSX Catalina today - it will be hard to not upgrade.

We aware of the problem but we don't have a solution now. We wait for new version of Wine compatible with MacOS Catalina. Then we will be able to compile 64-bit version of DipTrace for Mac. Until then you can stay with Mojave or run DipTrace on virtual machine with Windows or Linux.

What's the ETA on a native macOS version, please?

$79 and it is designed to run Windows 10 on 10.15 Catalina
I can't see DipTrace EVER justifying the outlay to produce a 'native' MacOS version of DipTrace, were still waiting on bug fixes from 4 years ago let alone the 'push and shove' router and pad stacks....

I've had a bad experience with virtual machine with Linux. Well, looks like we should wait for a while

You should use stable version on Wine and install 32-bit version of DipTrace. Then DipTrace will work fine on Linux.

32-bit version of DipTrace 3.3 works fine under Codeweavers CrossOver 19/macOS Catalina 10.15.2. Do not forget to install XQuartz before attempting to run DipTrace installer. 64-bit version doesn't install, I dunno why.

I have used Parallels on Mac for about 10 years, and I just upgraded to 10.15 Catalina so I am also hoping for Diptrace support. My Parallels install is currently hosting Win XP, 7, and 10 which I use for programs that won't run on the Mac. While I can't speak for VMs on Linux, Parallels / Windows runs fine on MacOS.

While I could run DipTrace on a virtual Windows machine, I would much rather run it on MacOS.
