When we select a Group in the Navigation pane, we can specify a path which is relative to some other well known project variables in the Identity pane. The files listed in this Group then can be located by a relative path.
However, wen we look closer, we can set a path relative only to these predefined settings:
- enclosing Group,
- the Project Folder,
- the Build Products Folder,
- the Developer Directory and the
- SDK.
Additionally, we are able set a path relative to any entry in the "Source Tree" which is quite useful.
However, it seems there is no way to set paths relative to some other build setting, for example a path which has been set in an Xcode.config file, or an environment variable. That means, we cannot refer with a *relative* path to files or folders whose location is not within the specified locations mentioned above.
How would I setup a project that shall be shared with many users and that needs to reference a few files from a location that requires a *user-setable* path provided in an Xcode.config file?
Is this really impossible?
Do I really have to fall back to "Source Trees" which are quite inappropriate here since these are *global* user settings, affecting any Xcode project, and possibly breaking existing projects.
Thanks in advance for any hints!
Regards
Andreas
