Do I really have to download 4GB XCode just to update it from 4.0 to 开发者_如何学Go4.0.2? I updated my device to 4.3.1 and now I can't debug on it.
yes, you really have to. Unfortunately, Apple has no incremental updates.
If it makes you feel better, I updated to 4.0.1 in the morning and 4.0.2 was released that afternoon.
If you dont want to upgrade you should be able to change the version on your device using the Organizer. If you have the ipsw file you should be able to put the version you want on it.
It IS necessary. And while I do agree that some of the large updates from apple could be incremental, a lot of the changes are deep within the debugger and other areas, so while Xcode is 4GB as one download, an incremental update might only save you a few hundred mb depending on the changes. Incrimental updates may also take longer to create, but I'm not sure on that.
File it as a bug on radar.
I'm not kidding either -- I did, and I know a lot of people who did as well.
If you want to make some noise about this issue, that is the place to get heard.
