Compiling wrong file

[plam4u]

Hi there,

I'm working on a file, but when I inject it compiles unrelated file.

Example: Editing ClassX but when injecting it asks me "Did you save file ClassY?"

I expect to Injection to re-compile ClassX which I currently work on. Note: I've tried to select the text in the ClassX file which was suggested somewhere.

Update: I think that what you need to select is the file in the Project Navigation and not just select the text in the file you edit.

I confirm that you should select the file in the Project Navigator. This is what works for me. It doesn't matter what text I select in the Code Editor.

~SOLUTION~: select the file in the Project Navigator

EDIT: Also, seems that if you have in your Xcode Assistant Editor opened, it's important that the selected file is opened in the Primary Editor and not in the Assistant Editor.

EDIT: The solution doesn't work. Now I cannot make it compile no matter what I do. It always compiles a file that I don't want. I would add a feature request to make it possible to compile a file that you select and not relate to the automatic file selection.

Have you tried without Xcode Assistant Editor? I’ve not heard of this problem before.

[plam4u]

yes, I've tried without it.

What worked for me for this specific case was to restart both xcode and simulator. Probably restarting just one of the would do the trick but I wanted to be sure.

Restarting Xcode is whats fixing it. Injection can only get a list of documents that have been edit from it’s Apple Script api and does some divining to work out which is he current document (has selection.) I had thought this was working but it seems it doesn’t when you are using the assistant editor.

I’ve uploaded a new version which should fix this by selecting the most recently modified file if there is any doubt. Can you give it a try?

hey, John, I've tried it and so far I don't see any problems! Thank you for the update!
