Xcode 4: Auto-complete & Jump to Definition broken in my Xcode 3 Project

My project was created in Xcode 3, I'm opening it in Xcode 4 and notice the following:

  • 'Jump to Definition' no longer works with my own symbols (However UI* and even TT* symbols do work fine!)
  • Auto-complete / 'Code sense' is as bad as Xcode 3, i.e., it suggests everything
  • My projects' classes do not show up in the class navigator (Again, system and Three20 classes do show up!)

When creating a new Xcode 4 project however, these features do seem to work. Unfortunately the only workaround seems to be to recreate the project and re-import everything. This project is too large!

Things I've tried:

  • Removing the derived data in the organiser
  • Cleaning the project
  • Installing both Xcode 4 Gold Master and Final versions

Update

  • This bug has not been resolved in Xcode 4.0.1.

With regard to "Jump to Definition", try clicking on the Scheme selection button (the one near the top right of the window that displays a list of builds, devices, and simulators) then click back in the code editor and try Command-click or "Jump to Definition" again.

I've recently found that whenever "Jump to Definition" stops working I can do this and it works again for awhile. It's not a fix but has been a useful workaround.
