Using a Script Target you can readily do this, by modifying the script phase in your script target.

The other option would be to add the target specifications, I haven't actually finished this yet, but it looks possible, just not trivial :-).

I'm working on native build system for C# projects using Mono (soon to be 1.0!), but I've not had time to finish that work.

I'm wondering if someone can point me to some documentation or share some information on using Xcode to manage source for some "non-typical" (to Xcode) projects.

I've been using Xcode to manage and edit source for a number of different types of projects, including some html-type (Cold Fusion) projects and some Oracle scripts. Currently, I'm writing a set of Oracle and shell scripts to manage a data project (soon to be a suite of projects). I'm at the point now of having a finished set of scripts, but I'd like to be able to package (i.e., tar) the appropriate files so that I can more easily transfer them to the production machine and run them. My main issue here is that I only need to package up some of the files and transfer them, and I was hoping to be able to add just these files to a target and have them packaged (tar'ed) rather than having to maintain the list of these files separately and by hand. I'm having trouble finding a way to do this in Xcode, and I'm wondering if Xcode is built to let me do this.

I've tried using a number of the target types ("External Target" and "Shell Script Target" under "Special Targets") but neither of these let me add the files to the target, and my options for adding build phases for these target types is very limited. The closest I've been able to come is doing something akin to a makefile, writing a script that tars the files specified in the script.

Am I hoping for more than Xcode can do right now? And I too far outside what Xcode is written to do? Is it time to submit an enhancement request? Or has someone figured out how to do something similar and would like to share their knowledge or point me to the documentation of this process that I have yet to uncover.

thanks,
chris
