Run destinations

What Is a Workspace?
Contains references to projects
and other files Groups together projects you want to use together Provides a unique location for state and build products Allows implicit dependencies to be found between targets

Build configurations Targets Build settings Build phases Build rules Schemes

Run destinations

Whats in a Project?
References to source files Targets which build products Schemes which build targets and
perform actions Build configurations which select variants of target build settings

Build Configurations
Build setting variants

Debug and Release are the default configurations Build settings can have per-configuration variants To vary build settings for another purpose, define a new
build configuration

Whats in a Target?
Instructions for building one product

References some or all source


files in the project Contains build phasesthe high-level sequence of steps Build rules determine how to handle each file type Build settings control how it is done Can depend on one or more other targets

Whats in a Scheme?
Instructions for building targets and performing actions

Actions for running,

testing, profiling, analyzing, and archiving products A specification of targets to build for each action

A Scheme Builds Targets


Building is a step performed before each action

You always build with a purpose The action you perform specifies targets and a configuration The default Build command builds for the Run action

Run destinations

What Is a Run Destination?


The device you want to build for and run on

What Is a Run Destination?


The device you want to build for and run on
Choose among plugged-in iOS devices configured for development, available simulators, and the local Mac Only devices compatible with your targets Base SDK and Deployment Target

Demo
Scheme actions

The Archive Action


What is an archive?

A timestamped bundle with:


An install-style build of your application Your applications debug symbols, in a separate dSYM file Verification and submission status for your application Your own comments

The Archive Action


Application archives

Contain only a single application Archives containing anything else cannot be submitted to the Mac
or iOS App Store

The Archive Action


Application archives

Your application should embed libraries and frameworks


Static libraries are always incorporated into your application Use a Copy Files build phase for frameworks and dynamic libraries Turn on the Skip Install build setting for library and framework targets

Demo
Scheme actions

Build Products

Derived Data
Every workspace has its own derived data directory Workspaces are distinguished by path

Different copies of the same workspace have their own derived data directories

Demo

Scheme Management

When Are Schemes Created?


Manually by the user Automatically:
When creating a new target or project When opening a project or workspace for the first time
