How do I revert to previous Xcode version

Xcode 7 appears to break Qt Creator debugging and apparently the only current workaround is to revert to Xcode 6.4. Can I get the correct procedure for reverting Xcode versions?


Thanks,

John

Not sure about a revert process...don't think it applies, unless you mean your project, in which case a backup of them would be your friends.


Otherwise, simply download 6.4 ( https://developer.apple.com/downloads ), and install it outside the Applications folder so it won't conflict by name, unless you intend to use it alone, of course. I'd rename it to: Xcode6.4 if you keep 7.

Thanks KMT. I want to actually replace Xcode 7, so the Qt dev tools all use the Xcode 6.4 compilers & lldb, etc. Is there an explicit uninstall procedure, or just re-installing 6.4 will blast over 7?


Downloading 6.4 now; thanks for the help.


(I've also disabled auto-update int he App Store, these Xcode auto-updates have bitten me before, but I've been able to work around them ;-])


John.

Google might have something you can use via the command line if a simple overwrite doesn't do the job you need.

as posted just download and install 6.4, you may have to adjust the path with xcode-select
