Strange debug output with command line gcc
When I log in and start a Terminal window, a simple gcc command produces the following debug messages: 2022-07-15 13:52:41.470 xcodebuild[784:10833] Requested but did not find extension point with identifier Xcode.IDEKit.ExtensionSentinelHostApplications for extension Xcode.DebuggerFoundation.AppExtensionHosts.watchOS of plug-in com.apple.dt.IDEWatchSupportCore 2022-07-15 13:52:41.470 xcodebuild[784:10833] Requested but did not find extension point with identifier Xcode.IDEKit.ExtensionPointIdentifierToBundleIdentifier for extension Xcode.DebuggerFoundation.AppExtensionToBundleIdentifierMap.watchOS of plug-in com.apple.dt.IDEWatchSupportCore Subsequent invoke of gcc does not produce these messages. How to avoid this small nuisance?

How to identify the first desktop (space)?
My app observes NSWorkspaceActiveSpaceDidChangeNotification and set wallpaper on the active screen. But I see there is no way to distinguish between spaces on a screen. I'm not sure if I have read the docs thoroughly. I would like to know if it is possible to tell which space is active for the active screen.

Playground starts slowly or never runs
I am a little hesitant to ask this question because it's been years, during which I hoped it's just a specific problem of my own computer or Xcode version. I'm not sure if it's only me alone with this problem. First time run of any playground project is extremely slow (after I open it); sometimes it just never runs with the build indicator circling forever). This is true for objc or swift playgrounds, or different machines, different Xcode versions, different OS versions. Can anyone help?

How detect SDK version
I have the following code:@implementation NSWindow (Coordination) - (NSPoint)convertPointFromScreen:(NSPoint)point { NSRect rect = NSMakeRect(point.x, point.y, 1, 1); return [self convertRectFromScreen:rect].origin; }I get a compiliation warning:Category is implementing a method which will also be implemented by its primary classI know Swift has builtin preprocessor directives to detect SDK version, but don't know how to do this in objc. Any suggestions?

App running shell script question
I want to use NSTask to run a shell script that resides in Resouces directory. The script performs some operations on files in the app's Data directory.But I am concerned that Apple could refuse my app for some reasons. Can anyone confirm if this approach is safe. Thanks.

How disable locate service?
I once enabled locate (not location) service but now I want to disable/remove it. It's really not very helpful compared to spotlight. What is the correct commandline?

Can I use libraries from brew.sh in my app?
I have a need to integrate icu (https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/icu4c#default) into one of my store apps. I'd like to know if this approach is supported by the app submission policies. Thanks.

How enlarge doc text size?
On my 27in monitor, the doc text is too small for reading. Is there any way to enlarge text size? Maybe I should file a ticket to request for a new feature for this?

Standard Value is disabled in Xcode 13
I'm not sure what I have missed in the new release, but I cannot set Standard Value in IB anymore like that I did for years. The Standard Value is disabled in constraint dropdown list. If I clear the hardcoded value, "Standard" will appear but when I press ENTER, the old value comes back. Is this a known bug or a new 'feature'?
