How can I set up a Custom Executable to properly Debug an Installer Plugin from within XCode 3.0? With most bundles it's a fairly straight forward process, but I'm missing something in setting this up. Any helpers out there?

Here's how you can do it in Xcode 2.3 (I don't think it would be different with Xocde 3.0) (*)

1. Open your Installer Plugin Xcode project

2. Create the debug version of your plugin and add the plugin to the appropriate package/metapackage.

3. In Xcode, still with your Installer Plugin project:

	i) Choose Project > New Custom Executable...

	ii) Click Choose...

iii) Select Installer.app (in /Applications/Utilities on Mac OS X < 10.5 and in /System/Library/CoreServices/ on Mac OS X 10.5)

	iv) Click Finish

	v) Set your breakpoints

	vi) Choose Debug > Debug Executable

4. Debug
