File Creation In Xcode

Hi Guys,

When I create a New Project my files in the Project Navigator look like the following:

noneAppDelegate.h noneAppDelegate.m noneMasterViewController etc...

Is there a reason why "none" is attached to the file name?

Hey Lou,

When you create a new Xcode project, on the screen you enter the Project details, like its name, Company Identifier and so on, there is a text field to for the Class Prefix.

If you leave it empty as the default (it shows you something like XYZ I guess), you'll have the files:

AppDelegate.h, MasterViewController.h and so on, otherwise it will put in front of their names whatever you've specified on there.

Hope that helps ;)
