Actually, when I open any iOS app created in Xcode 7.1 that was made using the Unique build setting, and set the build location to Legacy, all the project's files can't be found. All the file path references within Xcode get a duplicate folder path of the project's name, simply by switching from Unique to Legacy.
Here's a simplified example of the actual file path of a file within the project: /Users/zav/Developer/My-App copy/My-App/Utility Classes/Dictionary To XML/zavatone login 002.xml Here's what Xcode 7.1 changes the file path to after I start Xcode, set the build location to Legacy and open up the project: /Users/zav/Developer/My-App copy/My-App/My-App/Utility Classes/Dictionary To XML/zavatone login 002.xml Notice the duplication of the folder, My-App/ once the build location is set to Legacy? It also appears that the localizable files have moved their base folder's location. Can someone explain what changes in the project's file paths when changing the build location from Unique to Legacy or a valid strategy to minimize the pain in managing this? I have two large projects, one of which must be built in legacy and has 4 .a files that I have to use and another large project that was created under the Unique build location. Setting the build location to legacy completely breaks the file paths in that project too. Can someone tell me what Xcode is doing here? Must the project be open at the time the build location preference is changed to prevent this? Thanks.
