What’s New in Xcode 11.4?

Apple continuously tries and makes our favourite tool for developing applications for iOS/macOS/watchOS/etc. even better.

They announced interesting new features, which I’ll describe briefly. In my opinion, they’re actually very important.

Clang Compiler (11.0.3)
If your framework uses any third-party framework dependencies, the compiler displays the warning -Watimport-in-framework-header by default in the event of a framework importing a third-party dependency.

Debugging
The view debugger shows UILayoutGuide and its referencing constraints
The view debugger supports showing layers.
Editor → Show Layers
You can forward Xcode’s Console I/O to Terminal.
Product → Scheme → Edit Scheme → Options tab
