Description

Hi:

I am using xcconfig files to inject build settings to the xcode project. I managed to remove all build settings from the project except for SDKROOT by doing:

options:
  settingPresets: none

Is there any way I can clear SDKROOT from the project build settings, as I have it set in the xcconfig files?

For example:

settings:
  SDKROOT: none

Thanks

Research direction

Start by tracing how XcodeGen applies options.settingPresets and project settings, with particular attention to the SDKROOT value and xcconfig interaction. Verify the intended behavior against generated project build settings; done means a supported way to omit SDKROOT while retaining the xcconfig-provided value.
