Hello Hatem, I don't know of anyone that has used Xcode to build Arrow yet. We're normally using `-GNinja` or the default make generator to build it. As I have a Mac, I'll have a look at this but "cmake -G Xcode" is not running for me at the moment. To help us debug this, can you open a JIRA on https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/ARROW and post your "cmake -G Xcode" output there. The JIRA will be helpful for other people that also run into this issue.
