I'm trying to build a C++ tool. I used the Assistant and gave a
default name for the product/executable. I later wanted a different
name for the final product. The results weren't pretty.
* Changed the name of the executable under the "Executable" branch.
Unlike PB, the corresponding entry under the "Products" branch did
_not_ change!
* I did a similar procedure to change the name under the "Products"
branch. I didn't noticed for a long time that the actual product name
didn't change! The name change showed up in the GUI, but the compiled
product used the old name (in the "Products" branch). Sure enough,
when I closed and reopened the project file, the old name was there.
* Possible bug 1: changing the "Executable" name didn't change the
"Products" name
* Bug 2: If the name (under "Products") cannot really change, then the
GUI renaming definitely shouldn't succeed.
* Bug 3: When I do a rename, the name looks selected, but there's no
thin black/grey border box. I didn't realize that I was in edit mode
at first.
* When I do a "Get Info" on the "Executable" name, I see an entry where
I can change the real name, but it always blocks my edits. (And the
"Change" button is grayed out.)
On a separate matter, I need a similar target, so I duplicated the
first one. This put two entries under "Executable" and "Products".
The second target had the same rename problem. Worse, when I select
the "Products" group, I have no indicator which item goes with which
target.
