unsupported build action 'archive'
However if I instead specify a -scheme,
xcodebuild -project "MyApp.xcodeproj" -scheme "MainApp" -configuration Release archive
it seems to work.
By running xcodebuild -list, I've verified that my project has both a target and a scheme named "MainApp"
It has been said [1] that this was a bug in earlier versions of Xcode but was supposedly fixed.
Can anyone explain this? If not, I'll re-file that bug. I'm on Xcode 4.5.1.
The 'archive' action must be used with a scheme. The 'buildaction' section of the xcodebuild man page states this:
archive Archive a scheme from the build root (SYMROOT). This requires specifying a scheme.
The displayed error message could probably be clearer, though...
