    This should help out:

    1. Choose to build your project for archiving (Product->Build
      For->Archiving).
    2. The executable will be created and placed in the project build
      folder. This will typically be something like
      /Users//Library/Developer/XCode/DerivedData//Build/Products/Release.
    3. If you wish, copy the executable to a more convenient location.
    4. To run it, open up a shell window, browse to the executable
      directory, and type in your command name.

    EDIT

    I see you mentioned iOS in your question and tagged it as such. This answer is NOT relevant to iOS, infact I see no option to build a command line application for that system and it doesn’t really make much sense to have one.
