Question

I have dev cert and distibution cert. I am able to build an app to run on my own device and also followed Apple’s instuctions to build for AppStore by using Distribution Cert. I also followed Apple’s guidance to verify that app was correctly signed by reviewing a build log.

However I still have a question. Consider the following screen shot: http://www.braginski.com/temp.jpg

There are TWO entires: one which correctly say “Don’t code sign” and the second which points to my distribution certificate.

All Apple docs show the first box as EMPTY and second box with the acctual cetificate.

The problem is that I can’t figure out how to make first box empty.

So the question is: what should the first box be? Does it even matter? Build log shows that app is signed even when first box says “Don’t sign”

thanks

If you really want to have the default setting, just press delete key on this setting, it will give you the default.

“The first box” is only a automatic setter for the “second box”. It is actually important to choose carefully the “second box” (and the first one if you want it to choose automatically) because it chooses in with which distribution profile you’re signing with.

If you build logs shows that it’s singing anyway, be sure that you’re changing the configuration you want to actually change.
