I have been having so many problems since upgrading to Xcode 2.3 and gcc 4.0.1 that I just want to go back to Xcode 2.2.1 and gcc 4.0.0. Universal projects that previously built and ran on both architectures with the older tools only run on PPC. The i386 image in the UB binary is about 4K in size and apparently doesn't contain anything resembling code.

Also, no hints have been forthcoming from the Xcode mailing list so I don't know what to do to try to fix things. All I know is that I have to get software finished and out the door.

In trying to back down to Xcode 2.2.1, etc., I have run the Xcode 2.3 uninstall script, restarted, then run the Xcode 2.2.1 installer, restarted. I rebuild my projects and I end up in the same place as with 2.3. I've even tried running the Xcode 2.2.1 gcc installer standalone to see if that helps but nothing changes. I'm really hoping that I don't have to reinstall the OS so all the other stuff gets wiped and then get back to a known state.

My move from CodeWarrior to Xcode has been an entirely frustrating process at every step of the way. Every little setting has to be exactly perfect or nothing works as expected. Plus, doing what should be a simple tool upgrade throws everything up in the air again, just when I thought I had everything at least somewhat settled.

I don't think I'm doing anything fancy. I just want a set of Universal, dead-code stripped, symbol stripped executables. I don't think that's really what you'd call off-roading. Can somebody, perhaps even at Apple, help me out?

I think we will need more information. I have hit no issues switching several projects (some rather large) from Xcode 2.2.1 to 2.3 and on several different developer systems (including switching some over to DWARF).


I know this is likely not what you want to hear but I don't we have much of anything to go on to help you.

Are you sure that something in your code didn't change around the same time as the switch to 2.3? ...maybe a wrongly placed #ifdef that is engaged when building for Intel?

What type of source control system do you use? Can you roll back to a prior source tree to see how things go?
