Re: passing name of target to executable?



Right now there is no easy way to do this. I'd file a bug request asking for an $ACTIVE_TARGET read-only build setting.

Is there some way to pass the name of the active target to the active executable?

I've got project that includes a set of plugins, and a plugin-runner.

I'd like to set my Active Target to "Plugin1" and my Active Executable to "PluginRunner" and have it that when I do "Build and Run", XCode builds "Plugin1" and then launches "PluginRunner" with the argument "Plugin1" on the command line. And then if I switch the active target to "Plugin2", it should pass that on the command line instead.

It turns out that XCode sets both $TARGET_NAME and $PRODUCT_NAME to "PluginRunner", even though that's only the Executable, not the Target, so that's not the answer...

This is XCode 2.2.
