Xcode 4.1: Modernizing Projects
July-24-2011 Filed in: Xcode
When you open a project in Xcode 4.1, Xcode checks the project for any outdated settings like build settings, SDKs, and project file formats. If Xcode finds any outdated settings, they appear as a Project Modernization warning in the issue navigator. Select the Project Modernization warning or choose Editor > Modernize Project to update the project.
Checking for outdated settings makes working with old Xcode projects easier. If you have ever downloaded an old Xcode project and been unable to build it due to a missing SDK, you will appreciate Xcode’s ability to modernize a project.

Yep, but “Fix and Continue” is considered an obsolete setting but I want to keep it for use in Xcode 3 when I do need it.
I would prefer to have it in Xcode 4 than to disable it nearly automatically
You can choose to update some settings and leave others alone when you modernize a project. Use the checkboxes in the project modernization sheet (the sheet that opens when you choose Editor > Modernize Project) to control what settings Xcode updates.
