XCODEINDEX(1)						    BSD General Commands Manual 					     XCODEINDEX(1)

NAME
     xcodeindex -- indexes Xcode projects

SYNOPSIS
     xcodeindex [-project projectname] [-configuration configurationname] [-quiet] [-destPath path] [-loglevel level] [indexaction ...]
     xcodeindex -version
     xcodeindex -help

DESCRIPTION
     xcodeindex indexes an Xcode project.

   Usage
     Run xcodeindex from the directory containing your project (i.e. the directory containing the projectname.xcode package). If you have multiple
     projects in the this directory you will need to use -project to indicate which project should be indexed.

     By default, xcodeindex updates the project index if it exists, otherwise it creates a new index.

   Options
     -project projectname
	   Index the project specified by projectname.	Required if there are multiple project files in the same directory.

     -configuration configurationname
	   Use the build configuration specified by configurationname when indexing the project. If none is specified, the active configuration is
	   used.

     -quiet
	   Suppresses all logging while indexing.

     -destPath path
	   Places the project index in the directory specified by path.

     -loglevel level
	   Turns on varying degrees of indexing debugging. The level range is from zero to six, enabling a staggered number of the existing index-
	   ing defaults for the indexer. If an option greater than six is used, then the maximum level of logging is enabled. The logging levels
	   are defined as:

	   0	       No logging

	   1	       Prints the name of the file being indexed. This is the default logging level.

	   2	       File processing output

	   3	       Symbol updating output

	   4	       Symbol insertion and creation output

	   5	       Parser basic output

	   6	       Parser error output
	   The levels are inclusive (thus enabling log level 4 would also automatically include levels 1, 2, and 3).  Output from higher logging
	   levels than the default (level 1) is not expected to be useful for most developers, but could be valuable in troubleshooting cases
	   where there is a problem with indexing a particular Xcode project.

     indexaction ...
	   Specify an index action (or actions) to perform on the project. Available build actions are:

	   clean       Removes the index for the project.

	   build       Updates the index for the project, creating it if necessary. This is the default index action.

	   stats       Prints the statistics for the index (number of classes, etc)

	   dump        Dumps a tab-delimited format of the index (for major symbols - classes, methods, etc) to stdout

     -version
	   Displays component version numbers for xcodeindex.  These can be compared to the version numbers in the Xcode application's About Xcode
	   window.

     -help
	   Displays usage information for xcodeindex.

EXAMPLES
     xcodeindex clean

	     Cleans the index.

     xcodeindex -project FirstProject -project SecondProject -project ThirdProject -configuration Debug -quiet

	     Indexes three projects using the Debug configuration and suppresses all logging.
