Where to Go From Here
This chapter points to some tools and performance documents you’ll want to consider as you work on your software in Xcode.
After Moving Your Project to Xcode
Now that you’ve imported your project into Xcode and hopefully gotten it building, what’s next? Well, this would be the right time to learn more about how to make your application a first-class citizen on Mac OS X. And there are several good places to get started:
Xcode is a rich programming environment, and this document has only touched on its features. For a more detailed list, with specific instructions for taking advantage of new and enhanced features, see Xcode 2.2 User Guide.
Great applications take performance seriously, and Xcode comes with a lot of documentation to help you make sure your application is finely-tuned. You can start with Performance Overview, and follow up with the other documents available in the Performance Documentation area.
If you’re not familiar with the tools available with Xcode, take a look at Mac OS X Developer Tools in Mac Technology Overview, as well as the documents available in the Tools Documentation area.
Most of the documents mentioned here are available in Xcode—choose Help > Documentation. Between releases of the developer tools, you can obtain the latest documentation through Xcode's documentation update mechanism or from the ADC website. And please use the information in Feedback and Mail List to supply your feedback.
