I had no difficulty doing this, but I don't remember the details of how and am not where I can look it up. But i used simple techniques documented in the user guide.
The reason I'm responding is to warn you that, in Xcode 4.1 and earlier, at least, you should not have multiple workspaces open at the same time that include the same project. Apple has confirmed this in messages on the Xcode-users list. Here's how I set up my one-shared-framework/many-client-applications system: (1) create a workspace for the shared framework project only; (2) create a second workspace for one application AND the framework project; (3) create a third workspace for another application AND the framework project, and so on. When I'm working on a particular application, I can revise the shared framework in that application's workspace. When I'm working on the framework by itself, I use the framework-only workspace. Because it shares the one framework project with all workspaces, it contains all the changes I made to it while I was working in the application workspace.
