Question

As we know, in xcode 3, there is a “custom location” in project info. Where is it in Xcode 4? I found many “Path” can be set in xcode4’s Build Settings, such as “Intermediate Build Files Paths”, “Build Product Path”, etc. Which one should be set or should all of them be set?
Thanks!

Answer 1

This setting is not necessary to set in xcode 4 as it sets the location automatically.

From this forum thread:

You no longer need to do this in Xcode 4; it automatically segregates
build products from each workspace in
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData. Instead, you need to make a
workspace with the appropriate projects as members (along with your
other app/framework targets).

If you look at one of the iOS sample apps, you should be
able to just open it and build (since those already have project
references for the frameworks and Xcode 4 follows the sample).
