Xcode 3.1.2 and 3.1.3 often crash after I've been using them to run, debug, or run with instruments a Cocoa Obj-C application. The application doesn't crash, keeps running after Xcode crashes, and checks out with instruments components. Xcode will crash even when idle and the application is not running, so it may be the crash has nothing to do with the application. I've sent a few crash reports to Apple. Here is an example trace; they are all about the same.

Does anyone recognize this as a "normal" Xcode crash? It looks like it involves handling XML over an HTTP channel with some involvement with Javascript, and then something goes south in the XML processing. One guess might be a thread that is communicating with the Apple development site about documentation updates, but that's just a wild guess. I could probably test that theory by running disconnected from the net.

Sadly this has been normal for quite some time. Opening the Docs window will trigger this and most people I know hit it many times per day. It baffles me that Apple hasn't done something about this by now as it makes the documentation almost useless (unless you want to play crash roulette).


At work I moved to Snow Leopard to avoid the problem, but I can't do that at home.
