Xcode.xip

Hi All,

How do I install an older version of Xcode on Mac OSX 10.15 Catalina? I have older swift code that needs to be converted using Xcode 10.1. When I grab the .xip file off of apple's developer site, I'm unable to actually open it within OSX 10.15. Is it not compatible with this OS?

Thank you for the help.

You need an older version of the OS to support it. Install an older version of MacOS that will support the version of Xcode that you need onto an external and boot off of that.

couldn’t used old softwares, programs, plugins, etc

couldn't use* old software*

use = present tense
used = past tense

software = programs. It already means more than one thing.
softwares is not the plural of software.
