[cmake-developers] Making shared xcscheme files for Xcode from Cmake

[Harry Mallon]

Hi,

I just needed 'run as root' and default run arguments. I have just had a look at adding multiple targets to a xcscheme and it looks no more complicated.

I was just generating the "BlueprintIdentifier" at random with "string(RANDOM LENGTH 24 ALPHABET "0123456789ABCDEF" MACOSX_SCHEME_BLUEPRINT_UUID)". I see now that they are meant to match those in the XCode project. I have made another change (https://github.com/hm1992/CMake/commit/0085ab7932001475c7cc367112e35db5b15679c6) which fixes the GUID problem.

Group schemes could be made with an add_to_xcode_shared_scheme function maybe?

Harry

This became an annoyance in our Cmake build system so here is a barebones xcscheme creator.

Current situation:
* It seems to work for the executable targets we use in the office.
* It only supports command line args and whether to run as root or not (but this was all we needed for now).

If you have any use for it, feel free to use it. If it could be useful as a basis for a more integrated module then that would also be fine.

Thank you for working on this. Schema creation is a longstanding user
request? Could you modify your generator so that one can combine
multiple targets to into one schema? Or will that require knowledge of
the target UUID from the xcodeproj file?

Some time ago I looked into adding a schema generator purely implemented
as a CMake module but came to the conclusion that it is not a viable
approach without CMake modifications. Especially the unstable UUIDs
across project re-generation gave me some headaches. So I decided that a
schema generator would best fit best within the Xcode generator.

Now there's the first task defining requirements and creating an useful
and extensible CMake language API for schema generation.

Thanks,
Gregor
