I fear the fleshy palm!

If you look in Xcode's Building pref pane, you can set a separate build location for build products and intermediates. We do all our builds with something like:

Place Build Products in: [x] Customized Location: /Users/Shared/user-name/Products
Place Intermediate Build Files in: [x] With build products

This will set the defaults in question and will allow the frameworks to find each other. Also, the separate build directory keeps Xcode from junking up our source directory and generally is nicer in our opinion.

Longer term, I'm hoping we can release our real build scripts, but it is unclear if that would make things simpler for _you_ or just simpler for _us_ =)

I should also mention, that we're working on getting OWF to build (or we may remove it if Ken/Wim deem that better). It's suffered some bit rot in our recent updates and needed a bit of love. I don't think its seeing a lot of use these days, but it should at least build. Yeesh!

Looks like there are some problems building OIF because of OWF bitrot, too. I removed OWF from the Scripts/projectList file and then got this:

The unit tests are complaining, too:

Ken uploaded a new zip with fixed OWF and OIF. It looks like the OmniAppKit unit tests are still not building for some reason (not finding SenTestingKit with the 10.5 SDK, it looks like).

We'll keep banging on it, but yeah – anything you don't need can be expunged from the build list as a workaround for now (or as a performance fix for building crap you don't want)

I have next problem:

The following build commands failed:
OAUnitTests:

I'm using XCode 3.1.3.

Re:
"The following build commands failed:

The signature of:
- (BOOL)exceptionHandler:(NSExceptionHandler *)sender shouldLogException:(NSException *)exception mask:(NSUInteger)aMask;

in OATestCase.m has the mask parameter as (unsigned int) instead of the correct (NSUIinteger), and the project has 'treat warnings as errors' on.

So, I changed (unsigned int) to (NSUInteger) in the OATestCase.m - - (BOOL)exceptionHandler:… and it now builds without errors.
