Targets & styles question

Coming from the Codewarrior world, I'm used to creating a different target for debug and production builds. The debug build obviously has optimizations off, and outputs a "binary" of appname_debug.app. The production build turns optimizations on, removes symbols and creates appname.app.

I'm trying to replicate that in Xcode. In Xcode, it appears the thing to do is use one target, and build styles. However, I'd really like the application to be named differently if I'm building the debug version - I don't want to take any chances on forgetting to change a build style and sending out a debug version.

I tried adding "Product Name" to the development build style with the intention of overriding the target Product Name, but it would not allow any values with a space in the name - I mean the setting name, not the product name (i.e. it wouldn't accept "Product Name" because of the space).

Obviously I could create a debug target, but since build styles are global, I'd have to remember to switch to the deployment build style when building the production target and then back to the development style for the development target.

So, can anyone give advice on how to setup Xcode to produce a differently named binary for debug and deployment builds?

Thanks,

Wade
