Build settings

G'day,

I heard it mentioned at the Universal Binary developer kitchen that it
is possible to have a build settings file where you can set build
settings or create new build settings. This file could then be imported
in the xcode project.

I have been trawling the documentation on build settings trying to find
something that refers to this without success.

Is my recollection right? if so what is the format of the file? can it
have comments?, can Xcode apply those build settings only to particular files?

The reason I want to do this is to have a single place where I can
define things like version number, version string etc. which can be
picked up by the compiler, Rez and also can be picked up in a plist
file. I don't want to have to modify these things in the Xcode project
because that means the project has to be modified everytime there is a
checked in change. Our Codewarrior build has a single header file, which
can be included in source files, property list compiler files and
resource files, we also have a complete version history in this file
(commented out) and we would like to keep doing this.

Since the only way to get dynamic data into the plist file is via build
settings or at least that is my understanding it looks like this is the
way to go.

Thanks

Kevin
