Xcode derived data location

Question

Xcode keeps writing derived data to the project folder even though its set to default in the xcode project settings, its there any way to force this other than the project settings?

For Xcode 6 you can get help [here][1] [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24039932/how-to-delete-derived-data-in-xcode6 — Nilesh Kikani, Oct 04 '14 at 02:16

By default Xcode stores the derived data for all projects in a single shared folder under your home directory at the following location:

~/Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData

Update:

From Xcode 6, you can access or change derived data location from Preferences -> Locations Tab
