Hank,

That is a much better solution, thanks! It's not that I was opposed to using CodeSense -- I just didn't have the patience to sit through the lengthy indexing over and over again. The use of the pre-built indices should really be on by default, and then perhaps the install packages for updated SDKs or Xcode could just simply set some sort of notification letting the developer know that new indices should be built.

I enabled the pre-built indices, following the instructions in /Developer/Extras/Xcode Index Templates. Indexing took all of about 5 seconds this time. :) Certainly a big improvement over what I had to sit through umpteen times before!

Once again happy with Xcode

To take another approach, if you search through the archives you can
have the standard java classes pre-indexed, making starting a new
project take almost no time, while still allowing you to use Code
Sense.

Bring up the project inspector and turn off indexing in the Code Sense

I have for a long time been quite annoyed at how when I start a new
Java project, ProjectBuilder/Xcode indexes every single Java class. I
was able to find an option in the Xcode preferences under
"Navigation" called "Enable indexing", but turning it off doesn't
actually seem to turn off indexing. Xcode indexes all of these
classes that I'm not even using, nor will I ever use.


What's really annoying that it does this for EVERY SINGLE PROJECT,
not just once for everything. Additionally, I just loaded a project
with Xcode 1.5 for the first time since upgrading, and it's indexing
again! I wouldn't care so much, but it totally bogs down my 1.25GHz
G4 PowerBook w/ 1GB of RAM (!), making not only Xcode, but every app
painfully slow. And, it takes forever to finish!

It could at least be smart enough and only index packages and classes
that I have explicitly imported.


If anyone knows of a way to turn off this bloody nuisance (I'm fine
relying on a reference book, thanks), I'd greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,

Patrick
