Xcode includes everything developers need to create great applications for Mac, iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and Apple Watch. Xcode provides developers a unified workflow for user interface design, coding, testing, and debugging. Mattpow232, Shouldn’t be out of betaXcode in itself doesn’t change much year to year so on that end, everything is fine. However, this version of Xcode has completely ruined user interaction. I don’t actually believe that Apple even tested Xcode out using their trackpads because everything regarding storyboards is completely broken.

When it comes to scripts, I have no issues. Everything just works. But when it comes to storyboards, I can resize an element or drag it to another spot without weird glitches such as the element flying off the screen and getting deleted. When I drop a textfield element and insert a default value, the text y position is so far down you can only see the top of the letter even though the font size is default and the alignment is perfectly centered horizontall and vertically.
Changing between storyboard tabs such as going to the attributes inspector causes the object you are focused on to deselect. How did that even happen?The worst part about this update is that Xcode 9 Beta 4 was a better build than this release and that was 6 weeks ago. I would say that I don’t recommend updating to this new version as it’s usability seems to be even less than beta to me, but unfortunately, Apple kind of puts you between a rock and a hard place.
You basically have to update to this version to keep apps up to date and release those brand new apps to iOS 11 devices. 49Theives, It Works, But It's Unacceptably AnnoyingIt works more or less as expected and you can type in it.
That's pretty much where the pros end.There are two main problems that I have with this application. First off is the file size. It's insanely large for a program that can easily be replaced by text edit or notepad. It's almost 7GB and is the 4th largest application on my system - larger than most games.The other problem is the constant updating and the way they work. Updating is great for most things.
So I have been using Z-Suite since 1.3.1. I recently updated from 1.4.1 to 1.6.0. I also updated the Mono Framework to 4.0.4.4. I am running Z-Suite on a Mac Pro with 32 gig of RAM and a fast SSD. Now each time I launch the Z-Suite app it takes over one minute and twenty five seconds for the program to open. Previous versions took only a few seconds. Is anyone else experiencing this long delay. (The exact amount will depend on how serious the problem is, and there's also a bonus for providing a patch that fixes it.) For more details, or if.
However, this program automatically updates at the worst times and it usually takes forever to do so. Like I can be on my MacBook for hours, but if I go to use Xcode suddenly it has to update and can't be used while updating. If my MacBook has been sitting around for days with automatic updates on the whole time, still needs to update or is in the process of updating when I try to use it. So if I updated earlier that day then used it and need to go back to it 2 hours later? Yep, still a 50% chance or so that it's going to have to update first or it's already in the midst of updating and can't be used. Not only this, but even when I'm not using or trying to use Xcode, and I'm in the middle of doing something else, it takes the liberty of letting me know that Xcode is being updated and can't be used while it's being updated.I give it 2 stars only because it works fine when you can actually get it to open and don't have to do the perpetual update song and dance.
Thegoodbadandugly, THE BEST BY FAREasy to use. Able to be factory restored by internet. Able to debug iPhone INTERACTIVELY. FULL HARDWARE SUPPORT for the best multimedia - not software emulation freeware - real industry codec.Runs true BSD Unix great 'tools', GPL too. Very stable kernel. The best quality hardware.
Visually outstanding and handicap features too. Absolutely the best.One caveat is the weakness in the 'game release' - directx has never gotten supported (for game porters to make use of) - however Unity game engine DOES support Apple OS.But really - cross platform is bull (anything worth it needs non-free drivers); most apps today would be better done with XCode than to attempt cpt's. Something like Unity uses XCode that so game writers don't have to do it - they somehow have the time and money to make tools Apple has not had?:) Just a gaming company?Truly apple is often 1 yr behind on 'hardware version' release - but they are so much better releases they run better than a pc with 'later' hardware.XCODE allows developers to release apps that span support for users seemlessly on app store. Once released (if a user doesn't upgrade their device), their device never stops being able to run the app software. The developer can release for many apple platforms at once.
They are not 'guessing game' support each apple device is directly supported. Support is not a guessing game with apple.
