No postings for two years. Where else should I take = this enquiry?) I have a command-line tool written in C++ and built with XCode on a Mac, = which I'm trying to port to a Linux machine. I came across buildtool, = which promises to interpret the Xcode project file and carry out the = build using the gnustep tools. I've installed gnustep, xcode, and = buildtool, but it is not clear to me how to use buildtool. No = documentation comes with it and I've found none on the web. =46rom reading the source code, it takes two arguments, the name of the = Xcode project and a command to buildtool to tell it what to do with it. = I see nothing in the source to reveal what commands are available, = except that the default is "build". When I try that, buildtool begins = by attempting to build a target that I don't want to build for this = platform and wouldn't make any sense there (it's an iOS app). How can I tell buildtool which target I want to build? I have tried = guessing its commands, but so far it has responded to everything with = "Unknown build operation". --=20 Richard Kennaway=
