Limitations

Throughout this document, you will find comparisons between CodeWarrior and Xcode, including differences, issues, and in many cases, alternate approaches. This section lists some Xcode limitations to be aware of, with links to further information where available.

• Compile and build speed are greatly improved, and will get faster, but do not yet equal CodeWarrior.

• GCC provides limited support for CodeWarrior pragmas.

  See “Pragma Statements.”

• There is no support for wchar_t and wstring prior to Mac OS X version 10.3 (Panther).

  See “Support for wchar_t and wstring.”

• There is no projectwide graphical tree browser; however, Xcode 2.0 and later include a class modeling tool that you can use to make individual graphical models of your project's classes.

While not strictly a limitation, there are many differences between GCC and the Metrowerks compilers. Information on these differences is provided in many places in this document. For a jumping-off point, see “The GCC Compiler.”
