Actually, despite my earlier reply it seems that the problem is persisting, and I don't think this is what's happening in my case. There's one particular file which is having problems. There is only one file with that name anywhere on this machine, and Xcode is the only program that I ever open it with. Nevertheless, I intermittently get messages that "another program" has modified the file, and do I want to overwrite it or not. It seems that Xcode is somehow getting out of sync between (I think) the file open in a dedicated window and the same file as viewed in the build results window. Do you have any further thoughts as to how I might be able to make this issue go away?

Ah! I've caught it in the act. Xcode (3.1) seems to be extremely confused. I've ended up somehow with two separate dedicated windows both containing separate edits of the same file.


My project lives in /Volumes/Development/scatter
The file in question lives in /Volumes/Development/Common/jComplex.h, and is added to the project for convenience but isn't a member of any targets.


When I command-click on the window title one of them (correctly) represents the path as:
Jonathan Taylor's MacBook ... Development ... Common ... jComplex.h
The other one represents the path as:
Jonathan Taylor's MacBook ... Development ... scatter ... Development [complete with the normal hard disk icon] ... Common ... jComplex.h
This path is of course non-existent.


There's no question this is a bug on some level, but I've no idea what has got corrupted or confused in order to trigger it. Any thoughts?
