Put into a Bundle project with "XcodeFixups.xcplugin" as product and put built plugin into ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/

Thanks for posting this! Where do I get IDETest.h? I'm trying to build and getting an error that it can't find that file.

I was able to get this working but had to change a few things. I'll post my xcodeproj to GitHub when I have a chance later tonight.

You can get IDETest.h by doing a class-dump on Xcode's internal framework (I think it was IDEKit or IDEFoundation). Since it's a developer preview and private frameworks I'm a bit hesitant to post them here out in the open.

I've created a Xcode plugin in the mean time to fix this issue. I'll put it up in a Github project.

Hi Joe, I've just created a repo for the fixup plugin:
https://github.com/martijnthe/Xcode4_4Fixups

It does not need the IDETest.h file any more.

Huh, I see you already had done the same... :-) oh well.

Thanks Martijn. Yeah, guess it can't hurt to have the same plugin out there twice :)
