Book description
In Xcode 4 Unleashed, renowned Mac/iOS developer Fritz
Anderson shows how to use Apple’s powerful new Xcode 4
integrated development environment to develop outstanding software
with the least effort possible.
Anderson demonstrates Xcode 4 by walking through the construction
of three full applications: a command-line tool, an iOS app, and a
Mac OS X application. These case-study projects offer practical
insights and realistic best practices for efficiently utilizing
Xcode 4 in day-to-day development.
Next, he drills down to offer an even deeper understanding of Xcode
4’s most powerful capabilities. Through practical examples,
he shows experienced Apple developers how to move to Xcode
4’s “browser” model from older document-based
approaches. You’ll also find thorough, up-to-the-minute
coverage of key tasks ranging from builds and profiling to
documentation.
He concludes with a chapter-length roundup of “tips, traps,
and features” for maximizing your productivity with Xcode
4—whether you’re writing iOS apps or Mac applications,
working solo, or as part of a large development team.
