Xcode 4.6

·1 min

Xcode 4.6 is out. After using it for a few days and reading the release notes, I didn’t notice anything in the update that affected the content in the book much. The biggest changes are the following: the debugger can now show the contents of NSArray and NSDictionary objects, LLDB adds support for temporary breakpoints, and the static analyzer can find more problems in your code.

If you are using LLVM GCC as your compiler or GDB as your debugger, keep in mind that Xcode 4.6 is the last major version that will include LLVM GCC and GDB. That’s Apple’s way of telling you to migrate your projects to LLVM and LLDB.
