Download of Cocoa API documentation

Question

Is it possible to download all Cocoa API documentation? I have to work offline a lot of times and sometimes a doubt blocks all my work...

Answer 1

Xcode does this for you automatically, unless you've disabled it ?

Your Documentation prefs pane should look something like this:

Note that in the above case there are 4 documentation sets installed and the remaining uninstalled sets can be installed by hitting the associated Get buttons. Once you have the required documentation installed then it's available via the Help => Developer Documentation menu, even when you are off-line.

Answer 2

As @PaulR mentions, Xcode does this automatically. Look in the Documentation preferences. If there's no button called "Get" next in the "Mac OS X 10.6 Core Library" row, then it's already downloaded and installed.

If you still don't think it's working, then check out Ingredients.app. It's an offline documentation browser. It's pretty nice. :)
