I'm trying to use XCode to build a pure C/C++ project, no cocoa, no
GUI, just plain text command line style stuff. And I'm failing
hopelessly.
The problem:
I need multiple targets and I can't for the life of me figure this out.
I have a make file which will happily build from the command line, with
any number of targets and dependencies. I have about 5 files with a
main function. They test different aspects of the code. Naturally each
target uses one and only one of those options. Then there is a large
set of other common files, organised in a sensible directory
structure. They are all useful, they are not all made by me as this is
a shared project (with another guy working on Win32 and Visual C++ and
another using pure C on a mac with no C++ and no IDE, just a makefile.)
Do I need mutliple projects, one for each main??
And then when I start a project it insists on generating a main.cpp,
and when I import my files it gets upset to find that my file in
TestCode/Tester.cpp also has a main function, and likewise gets upset
when I try to remove the main.cpp file.
I realise that this is beginner getting-started stuff - but all the
tutorials and guides I can find have been no help at all. I'm getting
desperate. Must I go back to emacs and gdb and make??? Will the Visual
C++ guy laugh at my puny Mac?
All help much appreciated,
thanks
Cath
