Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified {{plural:1|one external link|1 external links}} on [[Xcode]]. Please take a moment to review [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?diff=prev&oldid=730722335 my edit]. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit [[User:Cyberpower678/FaQs#InternetArchiveBot|this simple FaQ]] for additional information. I made the following changes:

*Added archive http://web.archive.org/web/20140603011902/https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-Xcode/Introduction/Introduction.html to https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/RN-Xcode/Introduction/Introduction.html

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the ''checked'' parameter below to '''true''' or '''failed''' to let others know (documentation at {{tlx|Sourcecheck}}).

:TheI linknoticed worked,the butpart where it talks about Xcode language support should be updated for the rightlanguages placeit tosupports looktoday. Does it really have any tooling for allJava or Ruby nowadays? And the releaseextra notelanguages archivesthat moved,needed andplugins Iprobably updatedaren’t thesupported anymore linkeither.

:I searched the Apple Developer documentation, and the only other supported language I could find was C++. There's no page on Java or Ruby.

::I was meaning to gather some references to rewrite that part and ended up getting busy with other stuff. For example, when it says third parties added support to other programming languages, that was a feature of the Plugins that aren't even supported anymore.

== A Commons file used on this page or its Wikidata item has been nominated for speedy deletion ==

It's nice to see the existing tables that list the tool versions, but I would also like to see the minimum and maximum Nib file versions supported by each release of Xcode. I suppose my purpose here is two-fold: first, to seek confirmation that this additional column of information would be appropriate, and second, to obtain that information and start entering it here. (I have old projects that won't load in the latest Xcode, so it seems like it would be nice to have a reference so I would know how far back in the Xcode release history I need to go in order to be able to load and upgrade an old Nib to the current format version.)

== Possibly incorrect LLVM tag for Xcode 16.2 ==

== Separate version history article ==

In the "Toolchain version history" table, the footnote on Xcode 16.2 indicates LLVM tag swift-6.0.3-RELEASE. But it is not possible to build LLVM on this tag using Xcode 16.2, because a [https://github.com/swiftlang/llvm-project/commit/94471e73fe3a6e5ddf700ed79941b1f1c8d2127b fix] for a [https://github.com/swiftlang/llvm-project/issues/9305 compile error] is missing from that release. Instead, tag swift-6.1-RELEASE is necessary for building with Xcode 16.2. This suggests a change should be made to the footnote, moving the referenced tag up to the nearest functioning tag, which is swift-6.1-RELEASE.

Most of this article actually covers a detailed overview of previous releases. Would anyone object to moving most of the content (namely, from the sections "Version history", "Version comparison table" and "Toolchain versions") to a separate [[XCode version history]] article, leaving a summary on this article with a link to it? This would conform to [[WP:SPLIT]], and match the structure of similar articles in [[:Category:Software version histories]]. --[[User:Waldir|Waldir]] ^{[[User talk:Waldir|talk]]} 16:19, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

:Hi, {{u|Waldir}}.

:I don't see how your proposal conforms to [[WP:SPLIT]]. In fact, I think it does not conform to [[WP:SPLITSIZE]].
