macOS How to build in XCode 4 with makefile?

[ZebraineZ]

It was easy to do (though I can't think off the top of my head at this moment..) in XCode 3, and I got XCode 4 now.

I tried doing it, with the external build system and external target, and then I added files to the project and I went and pressed build and it basically gives one error saying there is no target or makefile or something...idk why it says that, I do the same exact thing I basically did in XCode 3 and it doesn't seem to get anywhere.

Did you add the makefile to the project? I can compile an external build system project in Xcode 4 if I add a makefile to the project and give it the name makefile.

NVM I got it done. But I still get these errors I got a long time ago...

This same error happened in 73 files.

src/elements/yest.c:1: error: bad value (native) for -march= switch
src/elements/yest.c:1: error: bad value (native) for -mtune= switch

Now I don't really know what the problem is....since it compiles fine through the command line, but with XCode I get these. From the command line it uses 4.2.1 gcc (which I'm assuming is the new one that came with XCode), but for XCode I don't know how to change the compiler or see what compiler it's using, it was easy to do in XCode 3 but not anymore.

Here is the makefile

Powder-X is the one that should be compiling for OS X. Since it works fine in command line like I said, I don't know what the problem is then..

For an external build system project, Xcode initially sets the compiler version to Clang LLVM 1.0. To change the compiler version for the project,

1. Select the project file from the project navigator to open the project settings editor.
2. Select the target from the project settings editor.
3. Click the Build Settings button at the top of the editor.
4. Change the GCC_VERSION build setting.

If you want to see what Xcode is doing when it builds your project, open the log navigator by choosing View > Navigators > Log. Select the build from the log navigator to open the build results window. In the build results window there should be a step called Run external build tool. Since you're getting build errors, this step should have an error icon with the number of errors. Next to the number of errors is a tiny button with little horizontal lines. Click that button to open the build transcript, which shows you everything Xcode does when it builds the project.

And what do I change the compiler version to exactly? It doesn't have a menu to select from, you need to input it manually unlike XCode 3...What do I need to type to make it use gcc? Just typing in GCC doesn't do me justice.

Edit: After a ton of googling I found this in someones log results lol

com.apple.compilers.gcc.4_2

so I assumed it was how to use gcc in XCode with that whole geeky dohicky way, and it didn't have a problem this time using the compiler, but still gave the error...

Enter 4.2. GCC 4.2 is the only version Xcode 4 supports.
