Question
I've built an app for the iTunes store. However, being a noob to the platform, I can't figure out how to submit the app.
Where is the actual binary that I need to submit to the iTunes store? What folder does it get built in?
Solution
You could use XCode and on the left expand "Products". Highlight your .app and then go up top where it says "Action" drop that down and select "Reveal in Finder"
OTHER TIPS
Look at a path something like this:
"/Users/{user}/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/{appname-somehash}/Build/Products/Debug-iphoneos/{app-name}.app"
You can run "find" to locate it.
By default, you'll see a build directory inside the directory containing your project.
In that build directory:
<Project Name>
.build` contains all the object files created during compilation
and a series of folders with the following naming scheme:
<build setting>-<platform>
You're likely looking for something like "Release-iphoneos". In that folder you should find the .app package to submit.
