Hello,

what exactly are you trying to achieve? If you just want your tool to be "Double-Clickable", give it an extension of ".command"

If you actually want your tool to be part of an Application Bundle, you may want to read this: http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/corefoundation/conceptual/CFBundles/BundleTypes/BundleTypes.html, especially the part about the CFBundleExecutable.

Another possibility (and it is something a lot of people do), is to execute your tool from a GUI App, using for example NSTask.

Hi Everyone,

I m new to xcode, i m using xcode 3.2 and os x 10.6.
I just want to convert my tool which is in binary form now to an .app format file.

I have tried to create an .app file through cocoa, which resulted in a main window executing its own executable.
How to make it executing my tool executable file without any main window or executing nothing other than my tool.

thanks in advance
mathan
