Failed to install pyfasttext on MacOS 10.14.6 (Mojave) via pip

[Kungreye]

I want to install pyfasttext into my project virtual environment on MacOS 10.14.6 (Mojave) via pip.

Some dependencies have been installed (like cython and cysignals), but I still got the error as below.

Tried re-install XCode command line tools, but did not work.

I also tried to install and compile via source according to README.md, but I got similar errors.

Finally solved this.

It turned out that MacOS uses clang to compile, and gcc or g++ is just a synonym of clang, so the solution should be :

CXX=/usr/bin/clang CC=/usr/bin/clang pip3 install --no-cache pyfasttext

I use @Kungreye 's way and solved in python 3.8.2 in macos15. but failed when I try the same way with python3.7 in the same MacBook

[Miles629]

with python3.7,
pip3 install pyfasttext

shows that:
./src/custom_exit.h:24:10: fatal error: 'cstdlib' file not found
#include
^~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1
----------------------------------------
and when I put in
CXX=/usr/bin/clang CC=/usr/bin/clang pip3 install --no-cache pyfasttext
it shows that :
./src/custom_exit.h:24:10: fatal error: 'cstdlib' file not found
#include
^~~~~~~~~
1 error generated.
error: command '/usr/bin/clang' failed with exit status 1
