Summary: use user-friendly configs in Xcode

Description C.W. Betts 2009-10-19 18:46:38 UTC 
starting in Xcode 3.1, it was possible to set build settings on a per-arch basis in a user-friendly way.  Instead of:
GCC_VERSION_i386 = 4.0
GCC_VERSION_ppc = 4.0
GCC_VERSION_x86_64 = 4.2
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET_i386 = 10.4
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET_ppc = 10.4
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET_x86_64 = 10.6
SDKROOT_i386 = /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
SDKROOT_ppc = /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
You could use:
GCC_VERSION[arch=i386] = 4.0
GCC_VERSION[arch=ppc] = 4.0
GCC_VERSION[arch=x86_64] = 4.2
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET[arch=i386] = 10.4
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET[arch=ppc] = 10.4
MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET[arch=x86_64] = 10.6
SDKROOT[arch=i386] = /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
SDKROOT[arch=ppc] = /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk

The advantage of this set-up is that Xcode allows you to change the settings in a smart way.  The disadvantage is that it won't work on older versions of Xcode

This isn't something we'll change for SDL 1.2, but I'd be interested in a patch for SDL 1.3 if you want to make one.
Comment 2 C.W. Betts 2009-10-19 20:50:30 UTC 
And it has been changed in the SVN trunk, except for the build configuration known as "Default."
Comment 3 Sam Lantinga 2009-10-19 21:01:26 UTC 
Great!
