Re: Xcode Build Location
Have you considered using a workspace to handle building all of your individual projects? That should solve your file path & linking problem. btw, the 28 character string is a UUID. I’m not sure about its lifetime. —Rob > On May 7, 2020, at 9:57 PM, Richard Charles via Cocoa-dev > wrote: > > I have a project that has several large dynamically linked libraries which > are located in the application bundle.

Xcode Build Location
I have a project that has several large dynamically linked libraries which are located in the application bundle. Each linked library is a separate project. The setting in Xcode > Preferences > Locations > Advanced > Build Location is set to use Shared Folder > Build. Historically has worked well but now with Xcode 11 there are some drawbacks. For example Clean Build Folder cleans the entire shared build folder not just the target. Also archiving has never worked and still does not work with this configuration. So now I have changed the Xcode setting from Shared Folder to Unique which apparently is the default. When using the Unique setting a 28 character string is appended to the project name in DerivedData. The string appears to be random characters but most likely is not. During build when linking to the dynamic libraries this 28 character string is in the file path. So if it ever changes then linking will fail. So my question is will this 28 character unique string always remain constant for a given project? Any insight would be appreciated. --Richard Charles ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

It's part of the OS. Calling it will cause it to do its thing, but in an environment it wasn't designed to run in. I'm suggesting you not use ScreenSaverView. -- Steve Mills Drummer, Mac geek ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Should I skip this statement in case -startAnimation has been compiled into the app?
