I have downloaded the new Xcode 9 build from the Apple website
https://developer.apple.com/xcode/
However, I am getting the following error when extracting the file
Is this a known issue with the downloadable file or do I need to do something else in order to extract the xip file.
My Mac config
High Sierra
System Version: macOS 10.13 (17A352a)
Kernel Version: Darwin 17.0.0

The current release of Xcode is available as a free download from the Mac App Store. The Mac App Store will notify you when an update is available or you can have macOS update automatically as it becomes available. The latest beta version and previous versions of Xcode can be downloaded from the Downloads page.
Assuming you haven't associated the xip format with any third party archive management tools, you can typically open a . xip file in Archive Utility simply by double-clicking the . xip file within the Finder of Mac OS. Launching Archive Utility and choosing the .
xip file and then begin expanding the file, then it would install Xcode. You can then delete the . xip file or move it someplace else if you would need it in the future. (Leaving it in the applications folder will only take up more precious hard disk space).
It looks like the software I was using to unzip https://theunarchiver.com/ didn't support xip format fully. Switching to the native osx unzip solved the issue
