I wonder if we can use build settings variables in the form $(var) in
*all* cases where a path string is required anywhere in XCode. For
instance in the field to specify the Build Products location in the
Info Panel of the Project, and the source tree in the pref panel?
No, expansion of build settings is not consistently done in Xcode 2.1.
The next version will be improved in this regard, but there are still
areas (like a reference's path) that do not support expanding
arbitrary build setting expansion.
Thanks for the info.
Just one question: are you refering to references of Groups and Files?
If so, we cannot edit the path explicitly, but we can choose it to be
relative to a "source path", previously defined in the preference
panel. This source path in turn might contain a variable.
I never used "complex" expressions, but I often use the variable HOME
in a definition of a source path, and this worked fine.
I appreciate that it will be improved, but frankly I had never a
problem with it ;-)
Only, the doc could be more specific about *where* the build settings
and the evaulation rules apply and where not.
Thanks
