Hi everyone,

I have a project which defines the build and target settings through
xcconfig files. Now, I would like to define other linker flags in the
top level root xcconfig file, and re-use these in other xcconfig files
that includes this xcconfig file. Like...


root.xcconfig:
OTHER_LDFLAGS = -framework Carbon

using_root_as_base.xcconfig:

#include "root.xcconfig"
OTHER_LDFLAGS = -framework Cocoa $(OTHER_LDFLAGS)

Why doesn't the above work as expected? E.g. when I watch the output
from the build process, the build setting that uses
"using_root_as_base.xcconfig" only passes "-framework Cocoa" to the
linker, instead of "-framework Cocoa -framework Carbon". I've seen
examples floating around the internet that uses this format, are they
wrong too, or is it something that has changed lately? If i _don't_
define the OTHER_LDFLAGS in "using_root_as_base.xcconfig" the build
log shows that the linker uses "-framework Carbon", as expected.


I'm not sure if that's supposed to work, but try

OTHER_LDFLAGS = -framework Cocoa $(inherited)

instead.

That doesn't seem to work - it gives the same result as when using $ (SETTING_NAME), see:

Could it be something else that gets in the way?
