Remote developing with Xcode ?

Question

My project files is in a remote(ftp/svn) server
How to develop the project direct in the remote server? just like a local dir ?
can do that with Xcode ?

Answer 1

There is a huge difference between an ftp server and a subversion server. Assuming subversion, since no one in their right mind would use ftp for hosting development work these days (seriously -- it is a gigantic pile of insecurity and cannot offer anything akin to a real filesystem experience).

So, with subversion, check out your code from the svn server to your local filesystem, do you development work, and periodically check your changes back in. In this, doing development with Xcode works just like any other subversion based development workflow.

Or you can use the rather-good-and-always-improving subversion client interface in Xcode itself. See the SCM menu.

I have been working on a project for quite some time and now we have happy customers using our services. I am not trying to make a sale but simply spreading the word that there are some alternatives to developing iPhone / iOS applications from an RDP, X11 Forwarding or VNC connection to a remote environment. Cloud 4 Mac offers CLoud Code to do just that. We are wrapping up our site to the web market but we are available for immediate Remote Xcode deployemnt http://www.cloud4mac.com
