Apple

Hello,

Does anyone have a “mother of all Xcode X.Y download links”? Also, a recommended Hardware / OS spreadsheet and perhaps a “not recommended but valid spreadsheet” for XCODE.

Note:

The rationale for the question is that the same/similar/related issue occurs every time I visit the Apple developer universe. Apple wants me to download what Apple feels I should download. So, if I just wanted to download XCODE X.Y [the X and the Y seem to be dictated by Apple] within 97 seconds of logging into the developer universe, I could. However, if I want some other version of XCODE [XCODE U.V], there is a high probability that I would ask on this list for a detailed URL after spending 15-30 minutes clicking useless links that do not lead to version U.V.

I am an XCODE novice who last used XCODE 2 or 3.x on TIGER and LEOPARD pre 2009. I only visit the developer site sporadically, mostly for automator and applescript docs. But when I do look for an old IDE for a newly created/upgraded [old] system with an old OS I almost always wind up asking on this list because I want Immediate XCODE Gratification [IXG] and the Apple developer universe [which is not quite equal to the xcode-users universe] just can’t satisfy me. My opinion is that this is a usability issue with the developer website. This is my opinion from the perspective of a sporadic developer site user and a list lurker.

Just one last thought: Totally absolutely super fantastic thanks to the Apple employees who hang on the list and answer questions like the above. Apple employees on this list are the best “semi-official Apple workaround” that I know of. Again my opinion.

Apologies if this question has been covered/discussed/answered before [most likely the spreadsheets]. Also if it is inexperience with the site.

I did not see the latest update of Xcode 4.x for Snow Leopard anywhere

I don't think there is any update later than 4.0.2 for Snow Leopard; as I understand it, to get 4.1 and later you must run Lion. m.
