Hi Folks,

I don't know if this is generally well known, but I just recently stumbled
across it and it saved me a lot of hassle so I thought that I would share
it.

I am one of those unfortunate folks who have large CW projects that refuse
to import cleanly into Xcode.

I have always thought that it would be pretty easy to do the import by hand
if I could just drag the files from the CW project to Xcode. Alas this has
never worked for me because Xcode would not receive the drag.

Well, for some reason I tried to do it again, but I happened to drag the
files over a finder window before I got to the Xcode window. An
lo-and-behold, Xcode received the drag and imported the files just fine!

Apparently, the finder does something to the drag to make it so that Xcode
understands it.

So, if you have any CW projects that you would just like to get the file
list from CW to Xcode without using the Xcode importer, simply switch to the
CW Link Order pane, select the files, drag to a finder-window (holding the
mouse over the Finder window until CW stops chugging), and then to Xcode
file list; then Xcode will add the files to the project!

Hope this helps someone...

Best regards,

B.J. Buchalter
