macOS How to compile a pre-made xcode project into a library

[dancks]

I wanted to install superiotool to check on my super i/o chip as well... make sure everything is going smoothly. I need to install DirectHW first. the download is sent as an xcode project and I have no idea how to install it. It came with no directions that I saw.

I'm using snow leopard 10.6.8 and xcode 3.2.6

http://review.coreboot.org/p/directhw.git

edit: nevermind I think I'm supposed to create a .dmg

I'm reading a file to use a script called create-dmg and here is a sample command:

./create-dmg --window-size 500 300 --background ~/Projects/eclipse-osx-repackager/build/background.gif --icon-size 96 --volname "Hyper Foo" --icon "Applications" 380 205 --icon "Eclipse OS X Repackager" 110 205 test2.dmg /Users/andreyvit/Projects/eclipse-osx-repackager/temp/Eclipse\ OS\ X\ Repackager\ r10/

the help option:

on-danckss-macbook:create-dmg Jason$ ./create-dmg --help
create-dmg 1.0.0.2
Creates a fancy DMG file.
Usage:  create-dmg options... image.dmg source_folder
All contents of source_folder will be copied into the disk image.
Options:
  --volname name
      set volume name (displayed in the Finder sidebar and window title)
  --background pic.png
      set folder background image (provide png, gif, jpg)
  --window-pos x y
      set position the folder window
  --window-size width height
      set size of the folder window
  --icon-size icon_size
      set window icons size (up to 128)
  --icon file_name x y
      set position of the file's icon
  --custom-icon file_name custom_icon_or_sample_file x y
      set position and custom icon
  --version         show tool version number
  -h, --help        display this help

the script file itself:

#! /bin/bash

# Create a read-only disk image of the contents of a folder
#
# Usage: make-diskimage <image_file>
#                       <src_folder>

I have no idea why creating a .dmg is important. I hope its going to create the necessary lib files and put them in the appropriate folders so I can move on to other stuff. If I wanted to skip alll this and just do that myself how would I go about it? the source files from what I see are:

DirectHW.c
DirectHW.cpp
DirectHW.h
DirectHW.hpp

so yeah. Any suggestions are appreciated

any suggestions at least? how about just making an installer?
