In short, Xcode 1.0 to 1.2 was a mess which slowed me down. But with 1.5 I am thrilled because I can now work just as efficiently as I did in Project Builder.

Good for you, I guess that you're of a type of user that the Xcode team is trying to target.

Lucky me? Remember that for Xcode 1.0, 1.1 and 1.2 I was forced to work in a way that slowed me down. I hated the Xcode UI at first and viewed it as a step backwards from Project Builder because it seemed slanted towards people working on bigger screens. Finally at 1.5, a key piece of Project Builder functionality has been restored which largely eliminates the problems I was experiencing thanks to my small screen. So I don't really think I've got any special status as a "target".


The point of my post in this thread was not to claim that Xcode is universally broken, only that it doesn't fit my workflow. I tried to make that distinction clear by asking a very specific question, a question that you don't address at all in your reply as far as I can tell.

I wasn't trying to answer your question as much as offer a counterpoint. You say 1.5 doesn't fit your workflow. I wanted to point out that in Xcode 1.5 it *is* possible to do what you did in PB with "one window" and "one click". I do it every day.


I am a Cocoa developer, that's what I do. I *need* to use Xcode, as there is no other IDE on the market that can do that job. For that reason in particular it's very frustrating to see Xcode moving in directions I don't understand or agree with. It can get a bit emotional... :)

I really don't see what everyone is complaining about.

Do you spend 8+ hours a day in front of Xcode?

Yes, and sometimes more. That's why I use a workflow that enables me to get the most done on a 12" screen. If I had a bigger screen I might try different work flows, but in my current circumstances it's a "no brainer" for me to work in the way that enables me to get my work done quicker.


Some people like chocolate ice cream, others like vanilla. In the case of an IDE, I don't care what the flavour is; all I care about is getting the job done as efficiently as possible.

Cheers
Greg
