Xcode 16 "folder style" projects

[mickeyl]

With Xcode 16, Apple has set the folder style (instead of group style) as the default for the Xcode project file organisation.

With these kinds of projects, XcodeProj no longer seems to find any resource files.

Sorry, this might just be a duplicate of #852?

I face the same problem, our project is using now the FolderStructure with xcode 16, therefore I think, it can't be read by XcodeProj.

We have recently experienced similar issue which makes it seem like XcodeProj does not support FileSystemSynchronizedGroup on the workspace scope 🤔

For us this has manifested by attempting to use periphery which has a dependency on tuist's XcodeProj.

I'm attaching the same sample project just in case there's an "easy" fix for this.

Looks like we have a PR to fix it sitting behind a small linting error – hoping we can see this merged and released soon! :)

[mickeyl]

Did that PR make it into the newest release?

[fortmarek]

Yes, we have an automated release process, so what has been merged, has also been released.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe we can close this one.

I tried the new Version 8.27.3 and I still get nothing from sourceFiles() and resourcesBuildPhase()?.files(), no files.

[mickeyl]

Yeah, I'm seeing the same behavior here. @fortmarek Can we please reopen the issue?

[fortmarek]

Sure, contribution would be welcome here 🙂

This appears to be a quirk of the Xcode project format as opposed to a bug in XcodeProj.

Inspecting the raw contents of the pbxproj file when buildable folders (sync groups) are used, there doesn't appear to be any references to those folder in the sources build phase 🤔

/* Begin PBXSourcesBuildPhase section */
		FB17F7312D82E1C5005A08D0 /* Sources */ = {
			isa = PBXSourcesBuildPhase;
			buildActionMask = 2147483647;
			files = (
			);
			runOnlyForDeploymentPostprocessing = 0;
		};
/* End PBXSourcesBuildPhase section */

Yeah, the files are not represented in the pbxproj since that's dynamic and resolved by Xcode based on the synchronized group. To expand the files is not a responsibility of XcodeProj ... so I'm closing this again 😅
