Xcode project inside project

frameworks, ios, iphone, xcode

Solution

They are called cross project references. From the link below:

Cross-project references are a convenient way to create relationships between two separate Xcode projects.

One method of creating shared frameworks is using sub-projects. You can also do it with single projects. More here:

Problem

I'm taking over some project of a colleague that is on holidays now. Other projects have gone fine, but in this particular one, I have found a project inside a project, like using a framework I guess. So what is the name of this technique? How to insert and interact with it? just import?
