Dynamically set iOS Bundle Display Name in Xcode 4 on Build

i would like to know wether it's possible to change the bundle display name of an app by for example. changing a preprocessor macro.

This would be helpful if you need different versions of your app, just to differentiate on your iphone's homescreen.

you cannot set the CFBundleDisplayName programatically, however if your application is localized you could set different CFBundleDisplayName values for each language what are in your localization list.

if you upload a new version to the AppStore, theoretically you can change a CFBundleDisplayName for each new version. if you are lucky, the Apple won't complain it.

You may not do it dynamically (and especially not with macros; which are a compiler feature, not a runtime feature), however, you can localize your application name. If you wish to change the name of you application, change the value for the info-plist key LSBundleDisplayName.
