Open Appcelerator project in Xcode
How do you open an Appcelerator project in Xcode? I've finished my project and I'm trying to package the app for distribution in the iPhone app store.

In the build/iphone directory, you'll find an xcodeproj file. Double-click it to open the project in Xcode. However, you might not want to do your final build in Xcode. You'll lose internationalization and perhaps other Titanium features that way. You can do you final packaging in Studio. If they're not already installed into Xcode, Studio will prompt you for your distribution certificate and provisioning file. It will build your final IPA using the Build & Archive equivalent of Xcode. You can use the Xcode Organizer then to validate and upload the IPA. Or, use the Developer/Applications/Application Loader tool to upload your IPA to iTunes Connect.

Karl,
The official answer from titanium is "we don't support that project workflow".
After you have used the "Distribute - App Store" function in TiStudio, you can Validate/Share../Submit… from the xCode Organizer. -
I forgot to thank you both for your responses! I was able to package and submit to the app store and was approved. Check out our app EazyEatz in the app store. cheers!

Opening the project in Xcode is useful for another thing: running on iOS hardware. Titanium Studio uses iTunes to get the app onto an actual phone. This requires that you to sync you phone with your development computer. That is not always something you want to do.
