I'm having some trouble working with xCode. It just keeps hanging and using 100% CPU right after a couple lines of code. I'm working on a new project and it barely has two files and it has become completely imposible to work with.
I tried reinstalling xCode and starting my project from scratch but it won't work.
I noticed three things that may help someone find out what it's going on.
It's slow even when typing, the characters appear delayed on the screen.
It keeps saying indexing on the task bar on top. If I clean the project it will disappear but come back whenever I start working again.
It overheats as soon as I open xCode
And here's some other facts that might help
I'm running xCode 6.1.1 (build 6A2008a)
My Mac is a mid 2012 MacBook pro 8GB Ram
I did a fresh install of Yosemite a month after it was released, so it's pretty clean.
I'm using the latest build of Xampp for my SQL server
I'm using nodejs as a backend so I'm running an http with nodemon
Hope any of you has a solution to this.
Thanks and merry christmas to all of you.
EDIT
I found out that it will build just fine if I remove my conditional cast to NSInteger, NSString, Float, etc. I have like 8 of them one after the other, and just replacing as? for as did the trick. I'm curious as for why this is happening anyway though.
Similar problems on 6.1.1 (but also source kit crashes) were improved (but not completely resolved) for me by deleting derived data.
I'm having weird issues with Xcode. I am trying to install the new Xcode 6 from the Mac App Store, but it got stuck at "4 minutes remaining".
Earlier I had Xcode6 GM which was working perfectly fine. I thought of downloading the new version from the App Store so I deleted the GM.
Did anybody else have the same issue?
I had the same problem.
Forgive the cliche, but I had to "turn it off, then on again" (reboot the MacBook) and only then could I re-click on the "Install" button, and it'd start downloading XCode, from scratch.
Previously, using the App Store "Check for unfinished downloads" just told me that I didn't have any downloads pending, yet in the App Store app, it had XCode stuck in the "Installing" state.
Update
It's that time again. iOS 8.4 has been released, but you can only get XCode to connect to an iOS 8.4 device if you've upgraded to XCode 6.4... but you can only do that if you've upgraded OS X to the latest version. Thanks, Apple.
And as usual, download times are appalling, even if (like me), you've waited a few weeks until after the release, to avoid the rush.
And when you finally do get to click on the Update button in App Store to update XCode, it changes to "Installing" but actually, it's busy spending the next few hours downloading, rather than installing anything.
You have to keep an eye on the download bar, just below the Launchpad icon on the taskbar, to check how far the painfully-slow download has got...
I'm really not impressed.
I quit App Store, then searched for XCode in my Applications folder, clicked it, after a few seconds the download status vanished and I was able to click it again and open the app.
If it's any help, I was in Software Update this morning updating to Xcode 6.2. For several minutes, the installer was also stuck at the 4 minutes remaining mark, and then started changing the time remaining (swapping between longer and shorter intervals). From what it looks like, this is a UI issue (probably not estimating all the time it takes to install all components), more than anything else...
After clicking Install on Xcode in the App Store I got a busy-indicator in the App Store window for a few seconds and then nothing, it still just read "Install" after leaving it sit overnight.
However, I was able to download the latest version of Xcode as a .dmg file at https://developer.apple.com/downloads. The installation process was smooth from there.
In App Store, try "Store" menu -> "Check for unfinished downloads..."
I had a similar problem. Mine was stuck on "Paused". To fix it, I went to "Applications" (command-click the old version in dock -> gets you there faster) and moved to trash the Xcode app that was 337 kb in size. Then rebooted, went to the App Store and started the installation again. Turns out mine was "paused" on 2.27 gb (though I simply left my mac unattended, since the download was taking forever, and returned hours later).
Hope this helps someone, as I could not find an answer to this myself anywhere else.
I got the same problem. I updated to the last version of OSX, and then the update came automatically as a a result of that update.
I have stuck many times, this saved me. Now you try your luck on this
Apple should really consider having some more indication of install progress. Hard seeing any progress with the bar alone when installations exceed a certain amount of time. But then again I see apples security considerations indicating more detailed logging of the progress. I guess they oversee the few situations when updates are in the gigabyte range.
It may seem like a cancellation of the install , and going on for a second time, gives a faster install. But I would guess thats only because some of the install progress is cached.
My tip is; wait it out.
I am trying to use the HP Fortify Static Code Analyzer to analyze security concerns in a large C application and I have run into various bugs in the software itself that I cannot seem to find any answers to anywhere on the Internet. I am using version 3.4 of the software and running it on a Linux x64 system.
The main bug that I am encountering that makes it very difficult to use this product at all is that in various different places in their Audit Workbench GUI the program will just close for no reason. An example is whenever a pop-up window shows asking you a question and your answer to the question is just to close the pop-up window by either clicking on the close button or the cancel button, the whole program ends instead of returning you back to where you were when you originally got the pop-up. Another example is when I try to open the Rules Editor, either for a new Rule Pack or an existing Rule Pack, the program opens up a progress window with a moving progress bar that sits there and moves for a while but when it is finished, instead of opening up the Rules Editor, the whole program just ends suddenly.
Has anyone out there seen behavior like this? If so, please let me know what I can do about it. Thank you.
I would highly recommend upgrading to the latest (4.10 at the time of this post) version. One thing you can do to help diagnose issues is to look at the log files. These are located in (by default) [user.home]/fortify/AWB-3.40/log.
Also, since you are using Linux 64bit, you will want to ensure that AWB isn't trying to access the 32bit JRE at any time. This can be accomplished by removing [fortify install root]/jre and renaming [fortify install root]/jre64 to [fortify install root]/jre. Some of the tools default to /jre and so you can run into issues on Linux 64bit.
i was trying to change the table's width in IDE and then saving and refreshing my localhost version of the application. it was working fine but suddenly i found that whenever i made any changes to my design the IDE gets hang and it says not responding and it takes quite much time to resume. after several time of this happening and restarting IDE and computer, i still got the same problem and when i closed the not responding IDE by force then in view error detail i found that APPHangB1 is causing problem, it says something like this "program is unable to communicate with windows due to AppHangB1 ". what is teh problem kindly tell? shall i reinstall my VS 2010. i have stuck in the middle and have to complete my application fast. kindly suggest solutions if u faced any. i m in hurry
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Xcode so it should behave normally but it keep open up with my last project and crash. No matter how many times i uninstall and reinstall. Is there a fix for this?? Please help i need to get this thing fix soon.
At the time of crash it says internal logic error. I read somewhere that i should restart my system after installing the new Xcode of it will crash again but as it gets installed it reopen automatically.
Thanks,
This might not be the optimal solution but I have talked to other people who have had problems like this and the solution they ended up doing was to create a new user on the Macintosh where they were having trouble and then Xcode worked perfectly fine.
Try that and see if you have any good luck.
I suspect there's some cached settings that aren't being cleared out with uninstalls & reinstalls.
