+# This file is based off of the Platform/Darwin.cmake and Platform/UnixPaths.cmake
+# files which are included with CMake 2.8.4
+# It has been altered for iOS development
+
+# Options:
+#
+# IOS_PLATFORM = OS (default) or SIMULATOR or SIMULATOR64
+#   This decides if SDKS will be selected from the iPhoneOS.platform or iPhoneSimulator.platform folders
+#   OS - the default, used to build for iPhone and iPad physical devices, which have an arm arch.
+#   SIMULATOR - used to build for the Simulator platforms, which have an x86 arch.
+#
+# CMAKE_IOS_DEVELOPER_ROOT = automatic(default) or /path/to/platform/Developer folder
+#   By default this location is automatcially chosen based on the IOS_PLATFORM value above.
+#   If set manually, it will override the default location and force the user of a particular Developer Platform
+#
+# CMAKE_IOS_SDK_ROOT = automatic(default) or /path/to/platform/Developer/SDKs/SDK folder
+#   By default this location is automatcially chosen based on the CMAKE_IOS_DEVELOPER_ROOT value.
+#   In this case it will always be the most up-to-date SDK found in the CMAKE_IOS_DEVELOPER_ROOT path.
+#   If set manually, this will force the use of a specific SDK version
+
+# Macros:
+#
+# set_xcode_property (TARGET XCODE_PROPERTY XCODE_VALUE)
+#  A convenience macro for setting xcode specific properties on targets
+#  example: set_xcode_property (myioslib IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET "3.1")
