I'm having a very strange problem with XCode. Whenever I double click

a file that is supposed to be opened with XCode, XCode just comes to

the front and does nothing. The same happens with dropping files on

its dock icon and with the 'open' command. The really strange part is

that I CAN open files by using the Open or Recent Projects menus.

There is nothing in the console, and reinstalling the dev tools did

no good. Does anyone know what's going on?


Don't know, but this is happening for me on two different machines with

Xcode 2.2 and 2.2.1.


It seems to happen if Xcode is running and I close a project. If I then

try to open a new project via the Finder, Xcode won't do it.


If Xcode opens the project from its own Open menu, but doesn't when you drag-and-drop it or double-click it in the Finder, the most likely cause is a corrupted Launch Services database.  Try

/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister -kill -r -f -domain local -domain system -domain user

Then try again.  LaunchServices will rebuild the database automatically.
