Re: Why does API search for "USBDeviceOpen" return no results?

you're implying that the Xcode docs are autogenerated from headers/ headerdoc/etc. 

Some docs are generated this way; most are not.


Why then does
FSCreateStringFromHFSUniStr() not appear in the docs, but
FSPathFileOperationCopyStatus does?

Please file a bug and we'll look into it -- there are multiple potential failure points for our indexing process, and about as many reasons an API doesn't appear as there are APIs that don't appear. (Sometimes it's simply because it didn't get documented...but that's good for us to know too, as we can pass it on to the writing team,)

I'm pretty sure that when I do find the docs for USBDeviceOpen, it
won't list all the error codes it could return right there (my
biggest complaint with the API docs).

A full-text search returns some hits, but why not the API search?

Because of the funky way that USBDeviceOpen and friends are defined in
IOUSBLib.h. 

Chris,

I'm just curious... you're implying that the Xcode docs are
autogenerated from headers/headerdoc/etc.  Why then does
FSCreateStringFromHFSUniStr() not appear in the docs, but
FSPathFileOperationCopyStatus does?  The latter being right above the
former in Files.h, and having very similar declarations.
