[Q] Is it best to use one large project with multiple targets (one per application) or multiple projects (each with a single target) to manage the suite?

In CodeWarrior, each application in the suite has a project of it own. In addition, there is a project that consists solely of references to these application-projects that contains a target that builds the entire suite.


You can model your project either way. If this layout is known to your team already, it might be easiest to just replicate it using the same layout of projects and targets in Xcode.


In Xcode, it appears that the most obvious approach is to create a single large project with one target for each application (and debug/ release configurations for each). Is this a good strategy? What are the pluses and minuses? What sort of experience do others have in this regard? And if I use a single large multi-target project, what is the best way to automate a full-suite build?


For automation:

Create "aggregate" targets that reference all other targets that you want to include in the build (Such aggregate targets are typically called "All", "All, No Tests", etc.), and then build that target using the command line utility "xcodebuild"
