Hi I'm new to Xcode. I'm trying to learn c++ and I was wondering if it is possible to have multi projects and choose which project should run. I used ms visual studios before and I like how under a solution I can create multiple projects and choose which one is the executable one. Xcode also has targets not exactly sure what they are maybe they play a role? I tried messing around but I constantly have issue because of duplicate mains. I'm going through a chapter and there are case studies. I'm trying to keep every chapter organized in one project well something like that. Any help thanks!

A:
Xcode targets are probably what you are looking for. You can have many targets in a single project, and whichever one you select as active will be used when you tell Xcode to compile or run. If you are having problems with duplicate mains, you probably have all of your .cpp files in all of your targets. If you have main1.cpp and main2.cpp in the same target, Xcode will attempt to use both of them and run into a conflict. Including all common files in all targets, but only the appropriate main files will likely solve your problems.
