Xcode 3.2.5 in iOS SDK 4.2 finally uploads a binary to the App Store in the background!


Developers rejoice! Xcode finally submits your binaries to the App Store in multi-threading, allowing you to continue to work with it while you upload your apps. This has been a feature I’ve been waiting for ever since we started working with iPhone apps: back when the App loader was in its early stages, we were asked to do a leap of faith every time we submitted an app, with no status reporting about our uploads.

Finally, Xcode 3.2.5 shows us a spinner, an “Uploading” status and a percentage of completion!

Hurray! That was pretty much overdue :)
Thanks Apple!
