Xcode este programul pe care compania Apple il ofera gratuit dezvoltatorilor cu scopul de a putea crea aplicatii pentru platformele iOS si OS X, pe care le vor putea publica automat in magazinul de aplicatii App Store. Cea mai recenta actualizare a acestui software a fost publicata luna trecuta, cand dezvoltatorii puteau – si inca pot – descarca versiunea 5.1 a programului, aceasta aducand o serie de noutati si imbunatatiri importante. Pentru ca acesta este un instrument important pentru toti dezvoltatorii, Apple a sesizat existenta unor erori in cea mai noua versiune a Xcode si a creat o actualizare pe care dezvoltatorii o vor putea instala in curand pe dispozitivele lor. Xcode 5.1.1 este cea mai noua actualizare, ea fiind disponibila in versiune Golden Master pe portalul dedicat dezvoltatorilor, iar cei interesati il vor putea descarca inaintea lansarii oficiale pentru a vedea noutatile pregatite de Apple.
In mare, in Xcode 5.1.1 vorbim despre corecturi de probleme si imbunatatiri aduse performantelor, asa cum se poate vedea si in lista cu notitele lansarii publicata de Apple impreuna cu actualizarea. Lansarea versiunii GM a Xcode 5.1.1 ne sugereaza ca actualizarea va fi publicata in curand in App Store.

Deprecation of SenTestingKit and OCUnit!
SenTestingKit and OCUnit are deprecated and will be removed from a future release of Xcode. Source code using OCUnit will generate warnings while being compiled. Developers need to migrate to XCTest, by using the “Edit > Refactor > Convert to XCTest…” menu command. Developers need to replace all their SenTestingKit and OCUnit code with XCTest.!
!
Deprecation of ATS.framework!
ATS.framework is being deprecated. Source code using ATS APIs will generate warnings while being compiled. For 10.8, there will be no loss of functionality but there could be areas where performance will suffer.!
Developers need to replace all their ATS code (including ATSUI) with CoreText. ATS functionality will be removed in future OS X releases:!
