| - | Okay, now you could either sit down and write your own Makefile (uuhh, that's for real nerds only), or you do it the easy way by calling some scripts! In Xcode (and any other IDE) you can generate as many applications out of your sources as you like, by setting up different targets. So once you've set up a target it can easily be selected by a drop-down menu. Don't forget to choose the right target before compiling your sources ;) | + | Okay, now you could either sit down and write your own Makefile (uuhh, that's for the real nerds only), or you do it the easy way by calling some scripts!
