How do you export your finished application from Xcode?

Question

I feel silly for having to ask this. I\'ve got an application to a point where I want to send someone a beta to test on their machine, but I don\'t know how to get Xcode to

Answer 1

the app is generally under your

project_dir/build/Debug/Name Of App 
project_dir/build/Release/Name Of App
project_dir/build/Distribution/Name Of App 

depending on which configuration of build you did or want to send.

Answer 2

to get to the .app application you have to go into the folder where you created it into build the your app will be there

Answer 3

This has changed in Xcode 4.

Now Apps can be exported from the "Organizer"

If you haven't already, you need to create an Archive.

On the menu go to Product -> Archive

Once you're in the Organizer - Archives screen click Share or Distribute... (Xcode 4.3.3 or newer)

Then choose the format you want to export.
