Status:Open Resolved:
Product:Developer Tools Product Version:4.3
Classification:Crash/Hang/Data Loss Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:

In a workspace with several projects, clicking on a project in the Project Navigator (in order to edit Build Settings for a particular target) will cause Xcode to begin a series of hangs where the spinning pinwheel is shown for 4-5 seconds, then disappears, then returns. This continues until a force-quit is applied to the program.

Steps to Reproduce:

Open workspace with several non-trivial projects. Select a sub-project in the Project Navigator in order to edit build settings for a particular target. Note app becomes unresponsive as you start making changes to project settings.

Expected Results:

App should not become unresponsive when attempting to change build settings for a target.

Actual Results:

App becomes unresponsive.

Regression:

This occurred sometimes in 4.2.1, but not nearly as frequently.
