I dislike Xcode 4 as much as anyone else, but I was watching WWDC sessions today (and yesterday) and it seems that they've fortunately improved Xcode, LLVM and LLDB a lot.
The new LLDB is almost 20 times better than anything GDB could hope to be. Xcode 4 is pretty, but gets a zero mark on usability (you have to do a lot of things by mouse). Xcode 4.5 has been vastly improved usability-wise. If they keep up their work, I'm sure Xcode could finally be a decent and usable IDE, rather than just being pretty.
- megablast 14y agoI love XCode, much prefer it to Visual Studio and especially Eclipse, which is just awful.
- pjmlp 14y agoJust for curiosity is XCode able to support C and C++ as good as Eclipse CDT does, and without crashing every few hours?
- cageface 14y agoXcode 4's C++ support is actually pretty good. It supports most of the C++11 features. It still crashes on me pretty often but it's much better than it was. In fact, C++ is just about the only reason I still use Xcode for actually writing code. My apps that don't need C++ are all written in AppCode. However, AppCode's C++ support is also improving so it may not be that way for long.
