Xcode 4 Book Status Report: August 22

·1 min

I cleaned up the modeling tools chapter enough to move it to the almost ready to layout category. I proofread some sections of the Interface Builder and debugging chapters so they’re closer to being in the ready to layout category.

Right now I’m working on the Instruments chapter, which is the largest remaining obstacle to finishing the book. The Instruments chapter has the following main topics:

  1. Setting up a trace.
  2. Running a trace.
  3. General material on interpreting the trace results that applies to most instruments.
  4. Instrument-specific results for the Leaks, Allocations, Time Profiler, OpenGL ES Analyzer, and Activity Monitor instruments.
  5. Creating custom instruments.

Topics 1 and 2 are cleaned up. This week I’m going to be busy cleaning up the rest of the Instruments chapter.
