Xcode: Duplicating a target and changing it’s type? Don’t…

ProTip of the day – if you are adding a new target to a project in Xcode, and you want to duplicate a target (say an application target and you want to add a library target), you can’t.

It’s not supported currently in Xcode 3.2 on Snow Leopard. Your best bet is to start from scratch, and do the manual move the build settings to the new target from the old target.
