I’d like to use all the power of Xcode for generic C/C++ projects but I can’t figure out what are the basic steps to configure a new Xcode project and attach it to an existing source tree of a legacy, plain, C/C++ project.
Creating a new empty project, attaching it to a source tree and configuring a build target (using GNU Make) was a really silly task.
I can’t figure out how to enable source code indexing in order to enable source refactoring tools, searching and fast-jumping and all the amenities that makes the Xcode programmer’s life great.
Moreover I’d like to use the internal debugging facilities…
Does anyone point me to a tutorial, a hint or whatever could be useful?
Thanx
I’ve found a (dirty) path to enable refactoring tools:
I’ve added a new standard «console target» to the project and added all the source files under the Build Phases > Compiled Sources.
Refactoring tools now works. Having two targets doesn’t seem to be a relevant issue (elegance apart)
