Compile on XCode - project dependencies not correct

[Kotti]

I just tried to compile GZDoom on a Mac and ran into some problems that the .pk3 files were not built.
Looking into the dependencies tab I noticed that for all 4 of them the relationship to the 'ZDoom' project is wrong. Not ZDoom depends on the PK3s, but the PK3s depend on ZDoom.

Works fine for me. What's the target are you building?

I build zdoom -> My Mac. But this will not build the PK3's, only the rest. I had to manally rebuild every single one of then, and when I looked at the dependencies it listed zdoom as a dependency of each PK3, but the PK3s were not listed as a dependency of zdoom.

The project was freshly created using CMake version 3.9.6.

You need to build ALL_BUILD target, it is set by default. If you want to debug GZDoom you can select executable (application bundle to be precise) for this scheme.
Please note that CMake dependency chain is cross-platform. Despite being potentially quite simple to fix I guess nobody is interest in changing this. The reason is testing such change is pain in a butt.

This had me stumped as well the first time I compiled on Mac. It's too bad that CMake's scripting language is this obtuse but I also do not want to touch it.

It looks like pk3s depend on GZDoom target because of its executable path, to place files in the same directory. Probably it's good idea to leave everything as is.
