Build with Xcode

Since QuickBuild version 5.1.16, Xcode plugin is bundled. This plugin can help to build Xcode project by calling command xcodebuild.

Configure xcodebuild command location

QuickBuild calls the command xcodebuild to build Xcode project. If this command is not in system path, you will need to specify its location in plugin setting of the Xcode plugin through Plugin Management page.

Further more, xcodebuild command location can be specified on a per-node basis by following below steps:

  1. Open Xcode plugin setting page and set the property xcodebuild Path as:

    ${node.getAttribute("xcodePath")}
  2. For each node that does not have command xcodebuild on system path, [define the user attribute](Working with Build Grid.html#WorkingwithBuildGrid-defineuserattributes) xcodePath to point to the actual ant command path, for example:

    xcodePath=/usr/bin/xcodebuild

    In case of user agent node, the user attribute need to be defined [in this way](Manage User Agent.html#ManageUserAgent-defineuserattributes).

Please note that in above example, the xcodePath user attribute is just for demonstration purpose. You can use any other user attribute name.
