I have a project with two targets, one is a Cocoa Static Library, the other is the accompanying test project. Despite building the main project in different ways over and over again, I cannot find the .a file that I expect it to produce.
In fact, I cannot find the build folder associated with the project. I need to link to the library in an app, but cannot do so if I can’t find the file to link to.
-
These properties are correctly set:
(Build Products Path) SYMROOT = build (Intermediate Build Files Path) OBJROOT = $(SYMROOT) -
All tests pass (which means the code MUST be building right?)
- Breaking the code causes the build to break – again suggesting that it is building.
Also, the “Products > libproject.a” file is red in the xcode project navigation
I also checked the DerivedData directory, but all the seems to get created is the objects fot the OCunit stuff. Still no .a file against which I can link.
Where is my .a file?
Any help would be much appreciated.
It’s probably in
~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/somewhere.
