How to create Xcode project from already existing git cmake project?

Question

I am new to OSx, can someone help to create Xcode project from existing code? I want to try some features of Xcode like 'profile'.

I currently use Clion for my cmake project, it is also in git repo. I simply want to import it from Xcode but it's not that easy I guess. Here some info about project and IDE:

• It is just a console app written in C++ and cmake project
• It is also on git repo
• Xcode Version 8.0 (8A218a)
• OS El Capitan 10.11.6

If you need more info, I can give more. Thanks for help.

Cmake has a generator for XCode. Try:

cmake -G Xcode <dir of CMakeLists.txt>
