Hmm, that doesn't seem to work.  When I do that, I get

MacDirectory
   MyApp.build
     <intermediate results>
   MyAppDebug.app <symlink>
   MyProjectDir
     Users
       rsherry
         Applications
           MyAppDebug.app <the symlink points here>

I tried it with both "../" and "/.." in INSTALL_PATH (was that a typo?)

According to the build setting notes (help->build settings), DSTROOT will be used as the basis for where XCode puts the final product, but it isn't the exact place; XCode will try to be "smart" and append /Library/Frameworks or /Applications or whatever to that, depending on the build product. I'm still searching for how to control that.

We needed something similar, we put the following settings

DEPLOYMENT_LOCATION = YES
DSTROOT = $(PROJECT_DIR)
INSTALL_PATH = /..
SKIP_INSTALL = NO

into an xcconfile file and set our build settings to be based off of these, but you could also probably set them manually into each of the build settings.

I'm using XCode 2.1 and I'm building an application for a project that 
I upgraded from XCode 1.5.

I need the build products and intermediates to go into certain places 
(for reasons I cannot change).  The final structure I would like is 
this, for building "MyApp.app" (the release application) and 
"MyAppDebug.app" (the debug application)


MacDirectory         <directory>

     MyApp.app        <release application>
     MyAppDebug.app   <debug application>

     MyProjectDirectory   <directory>

         MyApp.xcodeproj  <project file>

         Build Results    <directory>

             <all intermediate build stuff here,
              I don't care what it looks like>

I cannot seem to get MyApp[Debug].app into the ../ directory, no matter 
how much I try.  I usually end up with an alias (or symlink) to it 
there, and the actual built product is in some pretty strange places 
(MyProjectDirectory/Users/<username>/Applications is one example).


How do I get the final build prodjct to build it where I want it, 
without XCode insisting on either making it a shortcut, or also putting 
intermediate directories in that same folder?


Thanks,
Rudi Sherry
