Is there any way Xcode can munge up folder names in an application package

Is there any way Xcode can munge up folder names in an application package


  • Subject: Is there any way Xcode can munge up folder names in an application package

Is there any known issues or problems with Xcode (any version) that would cause folder names within the applications bundle package structure to have inconsistent names, e.g. Resources vs resources, or Versions vs versions or English vs english or A vs a?? In other words can Xcode generate these folder names in an inconsistent way sometimes? If so, is there any way to prevent it from doing this? These are created automatically by Xcode aren't they? So is there a way to manage these folder names in the event there is an inconsistency?


The issue has to do with an inconsistent set of folder names in an application. Sometimes the folders are named "Versions" or "versions", sometimes "A" or "a", sometimes "Resources" or "resources", sometimes "Contents" or "contents".


Here is one example:

macbook: m$ find . -print | grep versions\/a\/ | wc

     405    1215   49752

macbook: me$ find . -print | grep versions\/A | wc

       0       0       0

macbook: me$ find . -print | grep Versions\/A | wc

      75     225   8343

macbook: me$ find . -print | grep Versions\/a | wc

     973    3269  119833

I believe the third example is what things should be, i.e. "Versions/A".

So this one application has three different ways of naming the folder "Versions/A". Any ideas on how this can happen and best way to prevent it in the future? And the best way to deal with it on a case-sensitive file system right now?

Thanks...


-Bob
