Hi guys,
thanks for help and advises.
My point was not to backup sources or abuse the build folder.
I use CVS and I backup regularly on many different devices, outside
TM.
My point was to have TM backup the various versions of my built apps.
For me, a Build Product no longer belongs to XCode. It becomes
part of my thesaurus and I feel entitled to do what I want with it,
including TM backUp.
Nevertheless, as far as Build Product path is concerned :
In the build rules, you can place the built apps where you want
( build location / Per_configuration Build Product Path )
Nothing prevents you to choose a folder anywhere on any volume,
where you might very well have valuable data that are TM backed-up.
As soon as you do this, XCODE marks the folder to be excluded from TM.
This behaviour is not documented and may lead to loss of data.
Eric Slosser gave the solution : add a run script to the build
phases that copies the built app ( and anything else you want to be
backed-up) in a TM enabled folder....
You might use the deployment phase to do this.
