Pedantic fact-check: you can edit your files with some other application and use the command-line xcodebuild to build the project. Or, if you don't want to also maintain the .xcodeproj, you can call gcc or clang from a Makefile or equivalent, and assemble bundles with build scripts. The one thing I'm not aware of how to avoid xcode for is code signing, and that may well be possible too: it's already enough of a pain in the ass with xcode that I don't care to learn /usr/ bin/codesign. Granted, nobody actually does anything like this. Xcode inspires its share of grumbling, but the people who truly hate it seem to be the ones who hate the whole platform, and therefore probably aren't using it anyways. --Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "The Java Posse" group.
