Xcode Workshop 19-23 March 2012

Very Imaginative People will be organizing an Xcode Workshop from 19-23 March 2012 at Very Imaginative People @ Publika, Solaris Dutamas. Please contact Jasemaine Gan at jasemaine@vip.net.my if interested. http://vip.net.my/Contact.html

On the new Xcode 4.3

It would appear that Xcode 4.3 has now been split up into all its different parts. When you download Xcode 4.3 from the Mac App Store, it will download and install Xcode in your /Applications folder, and includes with the main Xcode IDE *only* the following:

• Application Loader
• FileMerge
• Icon Composer
• Instruments
• OpenGL ES Performance Detective

They can be found in /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Applications (yes, it’s now inside the Xcode app bundle).

So… wait, where’s Dashcode, Quartz Composer, Accessibility Inspector, Package Maker and such…? Gone?

Yup. They are now a separate download, available from https://developer.apple.com/downloads . You will need to manually download each tool package that you need to use.
