Yes Mike, you ask a very pertinent question.

First I'm looking for a source-time (not compile-time) monitor that would alert me to potential code problems as I type.

Second, to get an idea of the code inspection capabilities of the Java IDE I've been using for the past 8 years, see:

http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/documentation/inspections.jsp (very much worth the read, and maybe even try the app itself)

Thanks for all the input. It would be nice if xCode not only allow an easy-to-use configuration panel for all GCC warnings (not just some), but
also if xCode would parse source code on the fly to notify of
compiler-independent, completely user-defined warnings too. Jetbrains IDEA Java development environment has a very rich set of source-time user defined
warnings that make coding very clean.

Can you elaborate on this some more? Superficially it sounds like
you're just asking for the #warning (or #error) directives, which work
fine with gcc. But you make it sound like you're after a more capable
system, and I have no idea what capabilities such a thing would have.
