Remember the old CodeWarrior Re-search for files function?
You could reorganize your project on disk as you pleased and let CW work out where to find the project files.
Doing this in Xcode gives us the red files in project explorer and a hard time telling Xcode manually where to look for them, file by file or folder by folder..


Is there any straight forward way of letting Xcode look for project files that have moved within project folders all by itself?
It really doesn't have to search on all volumes known to the current system - just in all subfolders of the project's include path!


What to do if I want/have to reorganize the folder hierarchy storing my project files on the hard drive?
I don't suppose everybody else is dumping all of their project files in a single, huge, silly, flat folder on their hard drive..?!



I don't know of an easy way to do that sort of thing, but I made such work a little easier by adding the Path column to my list view (or whatever that's called in the upper right area of the project window). Then if I've moved or renamed a folder-full of files, I can sort on the Path column, select all files sharing the same path, Get Info on them all at once, and change the path from there, just one time for each path (instead of once for each and every file, one at a time). Not perfect, but it works for me. :-)
