Xcode developer help

I am a maintained account (non-admin) working in Xcode and i can execute all types of file (iPhone or Mac) with ease, but when i work on a command line code and execute it, it will ask for an admin password. The command line code is VERY basic, just saying stuff on the screen and not editing any (system) files, why is this and how can i prevent it?

Yes, I have! Make sure each station is bound to your AD and create a group "Your Xcode AD Group" through the AD MMC on Windows.


this command that has to be entered once on each station: sudo dseditgroup -o edit -a "Your Xcode AD Group" -t group _developer


There should be a database programmer at your university/employer that can pull class flag data and auto-populate a bunch of people's IDs into a 'COMP 101 Students' AD group, and if everyone in COMP 101 needs Xcode access, put this group in your Your Xcode AD Group group. It took me a long time to figure this out but it works on 10.7-10.11.
