A note for reviewers: I have been personally using this for 7 years with minimum fixes or any upgrades required. The generator code creates Xcode project, which I reverse engineered. At the time that I was developing it, there were not any great options for automatic generation of Xcode projects, so I wrote my own, hoping that the internal details of the Xcode project will not change. This has proven to be the case so far. ------------- PR Comment: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/20564#issuecomment-2286520226
