I would be surprised if people were doing this for the core libraries. If you want to do this and are not completely sure you need it, please don't try doing it. I have not tried this, however here's general guidance. Before you can use the libraries in Xcode, you'll have to install them. There are some "additions" libraries in -base and -gui, and you install them pretty closely to how you set up GNUstep on other platforms: - install gnustep-make (./configure, make, sudo -E make install) - install gnustep-base additions (./configure, make, sudo -E make install; I believe should detect that you're on a macOS machine, and deploy only additions) - install gnustep-gui additions, as needed (./configure, make, sudo -E make install; same story) - skip installing gnustep-back - install anything else you need You might get away without -base and -gui, and someone should confirm my assertions about only additions being installed by -base and -gui by default. Now, how do you link the new code in? The same way you would link other third-party, Xcode-unaware libraries. This is what I do for things like libxml2 or libxmlsec when linking them into software built using Xcode: - have Xcode pass the appropriate header search paths to the compiler (-I/path/to/headers or -isystem /path/to/headers or -iquote /path/to/headers, as appropriate), - have Xcode pass the appropriate library search paths to the linker (-L/path/to/headers), - have Xcode pass the appropriate library link flags to the linker (-lnameoflibrarywithoutlibprefixorextension, for example -lgnustep-base or -lgnustep-gui) A useful way to think about Xcode is that it's a build system[1] first, IDE second. Keep that in mind when clicking around the user interface related to build options.
