External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Xcode. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit 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 {{Sourcecheck}}).

Y An editor has reviewed this edit and fixed any errors that were found.

If you have discovered URLs which were erroneously considered dead by the bot, you can report them with this tool.
If you found an error with any archives or the URLs themselves, you can fix them with this tool.

Cheers.—InternetArchiveBot (Report bug) 20:24, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The link worked, but the right place to look for all the release note archives moved, and I updated the link. Guy Harris (talk) 22:06, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Nib / Xib file format revision compatibility in chart(s)

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.)

Separate version history article

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. --Waldir ^talk 16:19, 31 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Waldir.

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

Best regards,

I'm not sure I follow. From what I can infer, this article falls well within WP:SPLITSIZE's parameters. Can you elaborate? --Waldir ^talk
