Re: [ANN] Xcode + Leopard at WWDC this year

Action Item:

If you're going to WWDC please let me know what your top 3
expectations are and what help you need to bring your product to the
next level!

This seems to become a thread about what we expect from XCode rather than WWDC, but ok...

1) Fix CodeSense/Code Completion. It is far too fragile, slow and buggy, seemingly especially with C++/Objective-C++. Take a good look at "Visual Assist X" and port it/buy it/get them to port it. It is that good, it makes me prefer coding under Windows and that's saying a lot!

2) Fix Code Navigation. It's just too slow, misses a few features and is buggy (the bugs might be connected to CodeSense). Again, take a good look at "VA X" in combination with Visual Studio, although I seem to remember even CW8 used to be better in this regard.

3) Fix debugging. DWARF made it a lot better but there are still serious bugs and usability could be a lot better, I am clicking around far too much compared to other (far older) environments.

I guess what I am saying: Before you add other Toolkits, other Languages, other Architectures or any other features not everybody needs, fix the stuff that's already there and *every* developer needs day in and day out. So I only have 1 expectation:

1) Fix XCode!

Greetings,
Dix
