There’s a simple setting in recent Xcode’s that will handle that for you (i.e. no need to remember obscure arguments to add to the linker):
Just set “Create Info.plist Section in Binary” (aka “CREATE_INFOPLIST_SECTION_IN_BINARY”) to Yes, and add the Info.plist to your project as you would for a normal bundled application.
