- Use add_compile_options() in CMake to avoid duplicate lines. - Add missing includes as needed for Linux compilation. - Add required macro to access ftruncate() on Linux in C99 mode. - Switch to C++11 random numbers instead of arc4random for portability. - Workaround GCC issue with references to packed struct fields. - Fix missing default case required by GCC. |

xcbuild
xcbuild is an Xcode-compatible build tool with the goal of providing faster builds, better documentation of the build process and running on multiple platforms (in particular OS X and Linux)
Why xcbuild?
| Features | Performance | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 🚀 | Blazing fast incremental builds | xcodebuild | xcbuild + Ninja | ||
| 📖 | Documents the Xcode build process | ||||
| 🔗 | Builds Xcode projects and workspaces | ||||
| 🐣 | Supports Swift apps and frameworks | Clean Build | 30.103s | 25.122s | |
| ✨ | Tools and libraries for Xcode projects | ||||
| 💝 | Fully compatible with xcpretty | ||||
| 🎩 | Uses Ninja and llbuild | Incremental Build | 2.190s | 0.046s ⚡ | |
| :octocat: | Open source under the BSD license | ||||
| 🐧 | Builds on Linux | ||||
xcbuild and other build tools
| xctool | Buck | xcpretty |
|---|---|---|
| xcbuild and xctool are both Xcode-compatible build systems. We plan on slowly deprecating xctool's build support but keep it as a great way to run tests. | Facebook's main build system is Buck. Buck has a stronger architecture and advanced features like artifact caching while having a much simpler build format. If you have a new project, it's highly recommended. | xcbuild works great with xcpretty. Pipe the output from xcbuild to xcpretty the same way as you would from xcodebuild. |
Building
- Xcode 7 or later, on OS X.
- GCC 5 or later, on Linux.
libxml2-devis also required. - CMake and Ninja (or llbuild).
- With Homebrew:
brew install cmake ninja
- With Homebrew:
git clone https://github.com/facebook/xcbuild
cd xcbuild
git submodule update --init
make
Build output will be in the build directory. Run xcbuild with ./build/xcbuild.
Usage
The command line options are compatible with xcodebuild.
xcbuild -workspace Example.xcworkspace -scheme Example
Using Ninja (or llbuild)
To switch to the significantly faster Ninja executor:
xcbuild -executor ninja [-workspace Example.xcworkspace ...]
Besides the -executor ninja parameters, the options are otherwise identical. The Ninja executor is fastest if it can avoid re-generating the Ninja files if the build configuration and input project files do not change.
