This bug started yeasterday, after insalling security update 2 :
Whenever I'm editing a file and type say : if(v<...
Xcode shows a spinning beach ball after the comparison operator and stays there
I'm pulling my hair off cause : I just can't work !!
There are two discussions at Apple forums :
This and this also that shows that the bug happened before the release of SU 06-2.
As stated there, re-installing Xcode won't solve it.
Tried removing the Torque CS language extensions but it didn't help...

Bruno: Things to try:
1) turn off code completion.
2) try making a new project -- just use one of the xcode templates, to test.
3) try making a new user, then with that user do 1) and 2) .
4) install an older version of xcode
good luck, man.

The bug gave me a break. ( thanks heaven ) but I did figure out some things :
from Paul's tips :
1) Doesn't seem to affect it. It's now turned off, but seems that the code completion options just aren't activated when you hit OK. Very strange.
2) That's the thing you don't want to do. Creating an empty project is the real nightmare. Code Sense gets very mixed up when there's no code to sense. Specially if you are developing by prototyping.
3) Haven't tested that.
4) By the reports, it seems that it's in 2.2 as well.
Working now it's like travelling with an empty fuel tank. Crossing the fingers to reach the next gas station...

Well, I reported the bug to Apple and 3 hours later they asked me to send them a sample of Xcode. But I haven't heard from them since.The bug gave me a break. ( thanks heaven ) but I did figure out some things :

"Security Update 2006-002 is recommended for all users and improves the reliability and security of the following components:"
Is this the update that started causing you so much misery with X-code? I'm not having the troubles you were having, and I'd like to keep it that way. So I was wondering if I should even install this update.

This was the last thing I installed before the problem showed up. Wait until we get more news on this stuff to install it.

Thanks Bruno, I'll hold off on it for now.

maybe its time to install some Linux?
:)
so you sure you have completely disabled code completion and auto sense and anything else related?
maybe you will be forced to write the code in a text editer and just use XCode to compile it?
brutal bud..
I feel for ya.
but there is always the text editor and command line compiling utils. :)
Good Luck.
