Running Rust/Cargo Project on Xcode on Mac OS X

This is an Xcode 'external build system' configured to build and run a Rust/cargo project for demo purpose.

How to do this

• Initialize and setup git ( or your favourite VCS ) in your project directory
• Create a new cargo project ( e.g. cargo new project_name --bin )
• Xcode > New > Project > Other > External Build System
• Configure 'External Build Tool Configuration' for 'cargo build' ( Check this project's configuration for reference )
• Edit Current Scheme > Build > Post Build Action and configure it for 'cargo run' ( Check this project's configuration for reference )
• Any Other settings that you would like to configure ..
• Done !

This project was created using Xcode 7.3.1 on Mac OS 10.11.5

But Why ?

Because you can. ( and because some people love Xcode )
