Xcode, Folders and the File System - Part 2
In Part 1 of Xcode, Folders and the File System I walked through a short example on how to import folders into Xcode such that resources within a project have a folder structure that matches the file system.
In this post I will show you two ways to access the imported resources, one by specifying a [...]
Xcode, Folders and the File System - Part 1

Xcode Code Completion Macros
In the previous post I described the basics for working with code completion in Xcode. In this post I will show how you can use built-in text macros to insert various code fragments.
As an example, begin by entering ifelse into Xcode and follow this by pressing Control . (control period) and you’ll see the following [...]
