In Xcode 16.2, I am trying to add a folder by reference but I can't find the good old option 'reference files in place' in the pull down menu (only the options 'Copy files to destination' and 'Move files to destination' are present. Is it expected?
Thanks
I also rely on external folder references and now I can't setup new projects. What is going on here?
This seems to be a side effect of Xcode 16 trying to force the use of project folders instead of groups--and it seems you can't have a folder reference inside a folder. If, however, you convert the enclosing project folder to a group, you can properly add a folder reference. You can then set the folder reference build rule to 'Apply Once to Folder'.
The process is far more convoluted and twitchy than before, but at least it seems to work for now.
Thanks a lot, works fine. As you said, far more convoluted…
Thanks again
