Re: Downloaded doc update seems to tail out at 11 Dec 2007



AFAR, the last time Xcode asked me about doc update was the last year (12/2008).

That's correct -- we haven't done a doc set update recently.  We made some fixes and behavior changes, and needed extra time to test in order to ensure everything works smoothly.

I subscribed to and downloaded the updates for the Core Reference Library, and the Developer Tools Reference Library. After perhaps 30-45 minutes of download, the process appeared to finish, but nothing in the 'new and updated' section of the doc viewer had a date more recent than 2007-12-11.

The last time that I had done an update I was using a seed 10.5.2, so I went back to a GM 10.5.1 and re-did the experiment, thinking something in the seed 10.5.2 might be in conflict with the update mechanism. No luck. (I also did the 10.5.1 test as the admin user, a mode in which I don't normally run.)

The com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset and com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.DeveloperTools.docset directories have timestamps of 10 and 11 February 2008 (I was finishing up a rebuild of this machine around midnight). The former has a CFBundleVersion of 201.1.1 and the latter 202.1.1.

For the CoreReference docset the Resources directory contains dsidx and skidx directories dated December 17th; for DeveloperTools, December 11th 2007. The .html files in the sibling Documents subdirectory are dated in that same early part of December -- but the components of the directory structure in which they are embedded have those 10 and 11 February dates when I applied the updates. It's almost as if the directories get touched, but the files they contain do not get updated.

The Info.plist file has a DocSetFeedURL of http://developer.apple.com/rss/adcdosets.atom. Feeding this to Safari causes it to blink briefly and then redirects me to http://developer.apple.com/rss/index.html, where I can find articles much more recent than early December.

You did a typo in the docsets feed url (missing c in adcdocsets.atom).
