Description
I have configuration with other app added to project byprojectReferences
projectReferences:
xyz:
path: ../Modules/xyz/xyz.xcodeproj
and I set
schemes:
xyz:
build:
targets:
xyz/xyz: all
run:
executable: "xyz/xyz"
According to the documentation:

executable: "xyz"
or
executable: "xyz.app"
Not working too
And in project I have settings like this after xcodegen generate


Executable is missing 👎 How can I add this properly?
