Issue with Xcode product output as document instead of Unix Executable

[crabtown414]

I am new to C++ and Xcode. I am currently running Xcode 8.2.1 on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.3. I recently created a new project using code from my C++ lesson book creating a basic function. When I compile the code, the product file created shows up in Finder as a document or text file as opposed to a Unix Executable.

When I created the standard simple “Hello World” project, I did not have this problem. The output in Xcode for this simple project is a Unix Executable.

I have not been able to find any information regarding this issue online or in the Xcode help files. I have been unable to determine whether this is a problem with Xcode, my use of Xcode settings, or the code that I am attempting to compile. Does anyone know why the output for the more complex (slightly) program is different? Basic code is below:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int DemoConsoleOutput();

int main()

{
DemoConsoleOutput();

return 0;

}

int DemoConsoleOutput()

{

cout << "Pi more accurately is 22/7 =" << 22.0/7 << endl;

return 0;

}
