Re: Add files to project by type

One other thought: have the ability to omit a wild-card (file and/or directory). In my case, at each directory, we have an "obj" directory where .o files go. The problem with Xcode is that when I say add "dirX" and recursively add, it also adds the .o files to the project. No need to do that.

How can I add just *.c & *.h files to an empty Xcode project? It seems that all I can do is point to a directory and let it recurse through and add all files it sees to the project. I must be missing something.

First, you need to create at least one target in your empty project.  You can't add files until there is at least one target.

I was able to add files w/o having a target. ??
You should be able to select individual files in the Add Files... sheet.

Yes, I can do that.
If you can do that, you can use multiple selection to choose the .c and .h files to add.

You can always just drag them in from the Finder, too.

The problem is that I have 100s of files in a very complex directory structure. It is painful to manually add files from each directory (I did it over 2 days). So, if I sync out a new source tree for a different branch, I have to repeat this painful experience! It would be so nice to just have a spot to specify a filter of file-types in the Add Files sheet.

And while I am at it, it would be wonderful to have an option to ignore symbolic links when recursively adding files from sub-dirs. The tree I work in has a sym-link that points to the top of our tree, so imagine the infinite-loop Xcode goes into when traversing the directory structure. Luckily, I can delete all of these tree-top sym-links, add my files (over a 2 day period) and then easily re-created the sym-links.

Just some thoughts that would make Xcode rock even more! : )
