Xcode 8 Extension Not Visible In Editor Menu

I have the Xcode 8 GM installed and am trying to mess around with the editor extensions. I've followed the tutorial on this site:

https://littlebitesofcocoa.com/239-creating-an-xcode-source-editor-extension

but for some reason when I run the extension to test it, it doesn't show up in the editor menu at all.

Is there something that the tutorial is missing or is there something else I need to do to get the extension to show up in the editor menu?

Thanks for the help.

Solution

  • I figured it out.

    By default, the project was not signed. Clicking on the project and going to the general settings and selecting Enable Development Signing on both the macOS app and the Extension target fixed the issue.
