Strings in Release Binary

Hi,

when I build my Cocoa-Application using the Build-Configuration "Release" there are a lot of strings in the executable binary file and some of them I don't want to be there.

The strings I extract from the binary using the utility strings.

For example there are absolute pathes to Objective-C Source files. In my opinion those must not be in an exacutable file which I want to release. Also there are some names of attribute-variables belonging to an Obj-C class.

Fundamentally I use the standard build settings of Build- Configuration "Release". There are only minor changes for some pathes and I disabled C++ Exceptions and C++ RuntimeTypes as I don't use any C++. Furthermore I enabled Objective-C exceptions and use C-Dialect C99.
"Generate Debug Symbols" is disabled.


Does anyone know how I can produce Binaries that do not contain any strings that are only relevant at compiletime?

Thanks for any answers in advance,

Stefan
