Is there an option in Xcode to ask for a specific source file not to be modified at any cost?
I know this can be done with the file permissions but what I'm looking for is a more convenient way of achieving the same purpose within Xcode without having to modify the permissions on disk.
It's not "[never] at any cost," but ther eis a Lock icon in the text editor's navigator bar, on the extreme right, that when clicked will mark the file as not writeable by the user. You click it again and it unlocks it. If you try to edit it while it's locked you get a warning.
You can always write to a write-protected file if you have admin privileges to its folder. So the other thing you can do is to lock the file for writing, then lock the folder for writing with admin privileges.
