Hello all,
I have an application with two helpers inside the Resources folder and a login item inside the new /Library/LoginItems location, all of these inside the bundle of the main app. I use the default location for the build products, each one of them built from their own targets in Xcode 4.4.1. I place the helpers inside the Resources folder using a copy phase that copies the products inside the build directory to Resources inside the main app bundle. I also created a script to create the LoginItems directory so that I can copy the login item to its proper location inside the main app bundle.
Everything works well when debugging the products until I get hit by a few exceptions in methods that need that the helper being debugged is the one inside the main bundle and not the one in the build directory. I tried to install the products using deployment post processing but that does not change the product that is launched by Xcode while debugging. It still launches the products inside the build directory and not the installed products.
Seeing these problems, I would like to ask you the following question:
What is the Xcode setting that is pointing to the product that is going to be launched by Xcode for debugging so that I can change it to the helper inside the main app bundle?
Or better:
What is the supported solution for such a problem? I looked for the solution of this problem on
developer.apple.com and other sites and on the lists, but I could not find a satisfactory answer to my problem. Any answers would be most appreciated.
TIA
