Editing schemes
Schemes define how each build action is customized, to define what happens before, during, and after each ac-
tion. You also can set up each action to build a selection of targets.
Schemes are managed using Xcode's scheme editor/manager, which has separate dialog boxes for editing
schemes and for managing them. You can use it to create a new scheme, edit an existing scheme, or manage a
collection of schemes. Simple projects typically need a single scheme, so the edit option is the most useful.
You can access the editor/manager in two ways:
The main Xcode Product menu header includes three scheme options at the bottom of the list.
The same options appear at the bottom of the destination (platform) drop-down menu in the main Xcode
toolbar, as shown in Figure 12.12.
