D.gnu - gdc.pbcompspec

David Friedman have written a comspec-file for XCode and gdc, it is 
included in the xcode support package, but commented as not working.

Brave as I am I manually installed the file to see what kind of error it 
would give and if I could fix it. I pretty much verified that it did not 
work and all I got was:
undefined compiler specification net.sourceforgenet.gdcmac; 
specification may be missing or target may be misconfigured

Not much of a descriptive error. Also the compiler does show up as:
Unknown compiler net.sourceforgenet.gdcmac

When selecting GDC (Properly added to the list at least) as compiler 
under build rules.

I guess the pbcompspec is invalid somehow. Well, searching for pbcomspec 
on google yields seven results, and on Apple's developer pages none. So 
is there some documentation on the format available? David who wrote the 
original should have some? Or maybe someone has access the the 
pbcompfile for XL C/C++ compiler?

Actually it was me that wrote the Xcode spec, David Friedman wrote GDC.

I haven't been able to do a proper mapping, so I'm using shell scripts.

As usual Apple don't document their "internal" Xcode formats much...

The current one was inspired by work done for Pascal and C#,
but it's not really functional and even less so in Tiger :-(

If anyone makes it run, let me know and I can put it on GDCMac ?

Cretid where credit is due. The XCode integration kit much appreciated 
as it is. For some reason I find a graphical debugger 10 times as 
important then any fancy text editor. So just getting it up and able to 
dbug in XCode is good enough for me :).

I think I will give it a go. For Pascal I have only used FreePascal 
(http://www.freepascal.org) as it has many nice features from Delphi 
that GNU Pascal lacks. The XCode integration for Free Pascal has no, 
even not an empry for, compiler spec for it. So a link to the Pascal and 
C# inspiration of yours would be nice.
