Hi Chuck,

I've been using xCode for about 1 week and nothing serious at that ( going back and adding Java Doc style comments to some old code ). Im curious as to what problems you have with XCode. Cause if its a sbad as you say it is then, yes I will be looking at swapping. But so far I don't see any major problems. Maybe its that I have never seen the greener pastures and so don't know how good lif could be.

Anyways just wondering what you see as the major problems/hassles of developing WO in XCode.

Owen

For any of my complied classes ( or indeed the WebObjects classes e.g.

standard Java classes such as String.


My understanding is that it can complete terms found elsewhere in the
same file.  Is that what you're experiencing?

For me, however, the problem is that Java indexing makes XCode utterly
unusable.  It wants to index every single jar and class file in my
project any time the slightest thing changes, which brings GUI
responsiveness to almost a complete stop.  So I have indexing turned
off now.

Is my experience shared by others? Or am I just doing something wrong?

Well, depending on how you look at it you might be doing something wrong. :-) I have the same experience with xCode. Usually I use Eclipse/WOLips but have switched to xCode due to client requirements. In a nutshell, xCode blows for WO development. I'll have an ear to ear grin when I go back to Eclipse. You might want to consider switching, unless you'd rather fight... ;-)

Chuck
