The received wisdom on Xcode and Project Builder had always been that
if you wanted to update, you should first uninstall the existing
version. There had been a disaster some years ago with an incremental
installer: The installer would proceed if you had an Xcode already in
place, but the result might be an unreliable chimera. Or so I
understood, and this is what I advised in the introduction to my book.
However, I just noticed that the "About" PDF, and the label on the
downloads page, now proffer the installer for upgrading Xcode 3 in-
place.
Is upgrading without uninstalling really the better way to go now? I
guess the answer might be, "that's what the documents say, and they
mean it," but I'd like to be sure before I put the news/correction on
the book's web site.
