Xcode 3.0 file trashing situation


  • Subject: Xcode 3.0 file trashing situation

I have filed a bug report as follows and think users of this list might be interested.
This bug has bitten twice on two different systems. The first time I thought it was a fluke.


I like to create non-compile files (.txt, .m, whatever) to collect notes, hold cut code, etc.
These are not in any target (important criterion).
Bug is that Xcode somehow moves or creates them in the Trash, where they can be lost forever if Trash is emptied.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. In an XCode project, "New File..." File type does not seem to matter.
2. Uncheck the "In Target" checkbox .
3. Continuing using XCode, editing files.
4. At some point, you will get the "File has gone missing" error alert from XCode. The file title will go red in sidebar.
5. YOU MAY NOT KNOW IT, BUT at this point file is actually in Trash. It can be recovered manually before Trash is emptied. Otherwise, it's gone.
