Xcode is Apple's suite of tools for developing Mac OS X and iOS applications. New features in Xcode 4.0 are driving developers to switch to the new version and start building applications. Xcode is the complete toolset for building Mac OS X and iOS applications and with Xcode 4, the tools have been redesigned to be faster, easier to use, and more helpful than ever before. The Xcode IDE understands a developer's project every detail, identifies mistakes in both syntax and logic, and will even fix the code. Xcode 4 has a brand new user interface, built upon proven technologies that Apple itself uses to build Mac OS X and iOS, and that have produced over a quarter million Mac OS X and iOS apps. This project-based book introduces readers to Apple's development environment. The book is aimed at new Mac OS X and iOS developers and assumes the reader is familiar with programming and object-oriented concepts. The book starts at the basics--how to download, install, and start using Xcode-- and moves to a detailed look at building and running applications. The last part of the book covers more advanced topics, such as testing, debugging, and source-code management. With the book's approach, readers will be able to take the projects they build during the book and adapt the projects to their own projects.
