Just a simple yes/no question here, so hopefully doesn't violate NDA on iPhone stuff. I installed the "new" XCode 3.1 (yes, from the iPhone dev URL), and the readme ("About iPhone SDK.pdf") states that one should create a new folder, or it'll overwrite XCode 3.0 if installed in /Developer.
But none of the sample projects compile as it can't find the headers (like, maybe, the paths are supposed to point to / Developer/???) from within the precompiled header in the sample projects. So is it, "yes, XCode 3.1 is separate from XCode 3.0" (in which case the installer has a snafu), or "no, you're supposed to use the package to UPDATE 3.0 -> 3.1"?

Xcode 3.1 is a beta release and, thus, is not qualified to produce production binaries. So, if you have no need of shipping -- say -- a new version of an existing application for Mac OS X, then replacing Xcode 3.0 with 3.1 might likely be viable for you.


If, however, you need to continue to use Xcode 3.0 for Mac OS X development / support, then I would suggest moving /Developer out of the way and installing 3.1 into /Developer.

That is, move the 3.0 tools to -- say -- /Developer3.0/ and installing Xcode 3.1 into the default location.

As with any beta, it is likely that there will random bugs and it sounds like relocation of the developer tools suffers from a bug or two.
