Just noticed that Gestalt was deprecated in 10.8. This makes me sad.

@ccgus As a result, there's no supported API in 10.8 to get the OS version. Also: what else were you still using Gestalt() for!?
Rainer Brockerhoff ‏@rbrockerhoff 13 Sep 2012

@grynspan @ccgus sysctl(3) with the kern.osrelease argument gets you the kernel version, from which you can compute the OS version.

@rbrockerhoff Do you have an algorithm or table?
Ken Ferry ‏@kongtomorrow 13 Sep 2012

@mjtsai @rbrockerhoff it's easier than that, for example, if (NSAppKitVersionNumber < NSAppKitVersionNumber10_7) { } else { }

@kongtomorrow That doesn’t work when you care about the full 10.x.y version (e.g. to compare against when you know a bug was fixed).

@mjtsai NSAppKitVersionNumber10_4_7 !
