How to create dSYM file in XCode 4?

Question

Can you please let me know how can I create .dSYM file using XCode 4?

Thanks!

Answer 1

If you archive the application the dsym file is in the xarchive. Right-click on the entry in the organizer, do "show in finder", right click on the xarchive and choose "show package contents". The dsym is in the dSYMs directory.

Answer 2

Update for Xcode 4.3.1

For me there was 2 build settings I had to edit and I had to edit them in the PROJECT and in the TARGETS sections before XCODE would generate dSYMs.

1) Build Settings -> Build Options -> Debug Information Format = DWARF with dSYM

2) Build Settings -> Apple LLVM compilier 3.1 - Code Generation -> Generate Debug Symbols = YES

Hopefully this will help someone else because I spent a few hours banging my head against the wall with Archives that had empty dSYM directories... I "love" XCODE sometimes....
