XCODE_EMIT_EFFECTIVE_PLATFORM_NAMEΒΆ
Control emission of EFFECTIVE_PLATFORM_NAME by the Xcode
generator.
It is required for building the same target with multiple SDKs. A
common use case is the parallel use of iphoneos and
iphonesimulator SDKs.
Three different states possible that control when the Xcode
generator emits the EFFECTIVE_PLATFORM_NAME variable:
If set to
ONit will always be emittedIf set to
OFFit will never be emittedIf unset (the default) it will only be emitted when the project was configured for an embedded Xcode SDK like iOS, tvOS, watchOS or any of the simulators.
Note
When this behavior is enable for generated Xcode projects, the
EFFECTIVE_PLATFORM_NAME variable will leak into
Generator expressions
like TARGET_FILE and will render those mostly unusable.
