What argument would you give that would convince me to keep this layout? Why *shouldn't* I simply include the frameworks' source files directly into the application project build?

Depends a lot on your project size and how many people work on it. Having a more modular project can be useful in some case. However it's not because you can that you should.

OK, that's a valid point, and highlights a detail that I left out. I'm the only one working on this project. It's a contract job, and I'm a one-man shop (well, until I can convince my wife to jump to Mac programming!).


That's a bit the same reason why you don't have a single code source file.

Well, that's a bit of a stretch, but yes, I see your analogy.

regarding this

- It seems to be fragile in that when I make a change that's going to affect the frameworks, I have to make it in 10 different targets spread across 7 project files, plus the application project itself.
you can use .xconfig files to share settings between projects.

HTH

Yes, thanks. _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored. Xcode-users mailing list (email@hidden) Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: This email sent to email@hidden
