Re: XCode project to GNUstep GNUmakefile within ProjectCenter

[Gregory Casamento]

Patrick,

The two TARGETED apps you mentioned are also both UIKit apps which we currently don't support.

The best tool to use right now to build your project under GNUstep, if you don't want to make GNUmakefiles, is buildtool.  You will need to build the library in libs-xcode and the tool in tools-buildtool in order to install.  It's beta right now, but it does a pretty good job of building almost any Xcode project.  It doesn't currently handle workspaces, but I am working on that.   The deprecated tool is pbxbuild, NOT buildtool so I am not sure where you thought you saw that.

Hi All,

I am looking for some Password manager, very simple, like Yapet (which
is ncurses) or Keepass but with the consistency and the guidelines of
a GNUstep/Openstep app.

I found some targeted projects like these :

- MiniKeePass
https://github.com/Letterus/MiniKeePass

- myPassword
https://github.com/xcvista/myPassword

But those are XCode projects, without GNUmakefile, and so I did not
find yet how  to convert an XCode project.

I read docs on the Web about the apparently deprecated buildtool...
And it seems that ProjectManager could now read XCode projects and
generate the GNUmakefile, but I did not find the way to do it.
I tried a few things, like installing Xcode.framework, but this did
not add new actions in the ProjectCenter menu and when I try to open
an XCode project within PC, no file seems avaible to.
I a missing something, but could not find it by myself.

P.S.: Do You know that the link supplied to "GNUstep Build Guide", i.e.
http://www.gnustep.net/Documentation/BuildGuide/develop.html from the
page
http://www.gnustep.org/experience/ProjectCenter.html#Documentation
is now targeted to a blog about gambling, with an obvious abuse of the
the name "gnustep" in its title... ?

Cheers,
Patrick
