Is it possible to set a symbol for conditional compilation by setting up properties in an Xcode project?
My aim is to to create a symbol that is available to all files, without having to use import/include, so that a set of common classes can have a special behavior in some projects. Like the following, but with my own symbols.
#if TARGET_IPHONE_SIMULATOR ... #endif
Go to your Target or Project settings, click the Gear icon at the bottom left, and select ‘Add User-Defined Setting’. The new setting name should be
GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS, and you can type your definitions in the right-hand field.Per Steph’s comments, the full syntax is:
Note that you don’t need the ‘=’s if you just want to #define a symbol, rather than giving it a value (for
#ifdefstatements)
