thank you Andrew
reindexing did help

I think I know what happened:
I have my home directory on the network
but few weeks ago I got new MacPro
so I reinstalled Xcode and that could be a problem
thanks a lot

Hi
thanks for the answers

I asked, because after disabling spotlight on my office machine (for some reason, that is not important here)
I can not find any definition in Xcode (Jump to definition menu)
maybe it's just coincidence

Try re-indexing your project.

With your project window foremost, choose Project -> Edit Project Settings -> General tab -> Rebuild Code Sense Index button at the bottom of the Info window.

If that doesn't help, I would encourage you to file a bug and include either your entire project, or a small sample project that reproduces the problem.

Thanks,

does Xcode require spotlight to do indexing?

It depends on what you mean, but the answer to you question is probably no. Xcode provides a Spotlight source code importer that indexes your source files and allows you to query them from Spotlight. The data generated from this importer is also used to back the "Symbol" search type in the batch find panel in Xcode.
To put it another way, what you would usually consider as "indexing" in the Xcode IDE proper is not done by Spotlight, but rather by Xcode itself. If you disable Spotlight indexing for the volume that contains your source code Xcode will still index the source code referenced by your projects, and all functionality in Xcode that depends on the index will still work. The only thing that will not work is the Symbol search from the batch find panel.

And the ability to match executables with their dSYM files when debugging or symbolicating crash traces. If you disable Spotlight, then the dSym files have to be in the same directory as the executable.
