I'm having an extremely bad and annoying experience with Xcode 3.0.
I've opened a C++ project that was originally created with Xcode
2.4. No prob so far. But when I launch the debugger then things are
going really bad. Time to execute a single step instruction is in
the range of seconds, opening a structure to examine its members
works sometimes, and don't some other times. For example I want to
examine an array of elements which are a union between 2 arrays of
4 UInt32 and 4 Float32 each. Xcode displays the 2 members name of
the union but refuses to display the arrays content. When a member
is a bit field, same problem, Xcode shows the name of the member
but not its value. It seems that Xcode 3.0 needs a huge amount of
time to fetch members values because I have to wait several seconds
to be able to see the content of a member . The project is a small
to medium size project (around 700 C++ files). Everything was going
flawlessly with Xcode 2.4.
Well, I assume that if you moved from Xcode 2.4 to Xcode 3.0 you
also moved from Tiger to Leopard. Leopard (and Xcode 3.0) are
somewhat larger than their predecessors and work better a) on Intel
and b) with more memory than Tiger/2.4 do.
Some things to try:
- If you have 512Mb, buy more RAM.
- If you're using a single-processor PPC, try using Xcode 2.5
instead of 3.0
I work on a MacBook Pro Core duo 2.16GHz with 2 GB of RAM. Should be
enough:) My internal disk is almost full (4 GB free), could it be the
reason?
I've just downloaded and installed Xcode 2.5, and that's really much
much faster .....
