Re: Xcode and syntax highlighting

Hello again.

I've posted a short video showing the Xcode syntax highlighting bugs here (http://home.grenangen.se/Xcode/)

This video will also go with my bug reports regarding the same issue as discussed here. Once more, if somebody else have this kind of issue(es), please let me know if you might have some sort of workaround or any tips on how to make it appear less at least =)



Is it just me or is the latest Xcode release incredibly unstable while
just editing code.
The code window(s) get messed up and all text becomes unreadable. I have
to switch to another file or close/re-open the file to get it rendered
properly. Not only that, but often, very often, auto complete messes the
entire file, and if I do save/close/re-open the file is still messed up,
but rendered correctly.
With messed up I mean that code have been broken (moved to different
rows etc, making the code not to compile)

I'm going to file multiple bug reports to Apple, but, I would find it
very helpful if anyone else have found a workaround for this, so I can
continue to code without any unnecessary interruptions. I've been
unsuccessful trying to figure out a workaround (for now at least).

// Marcus

Apple uses Xcode to write the OS, so it's not likely that the Xcode engineers have casually released an IDE that routinely destroys source code. I haven't seen this problem, myself.

By chance, are you sharing your source with a Windows project, so that \r\n line endings get mixed with \n in your source files? That's a common cause of broken text behavior.
