Apple had Fix-and-continue when Xcode 1.0 replaced Project Builder ten 
years ago. It was abandoned in Xcode 4. I'm not sure how reliable it 
was, but I remember having played with it when it was new but not 
bothering much later.

I guess the feature not being completely reliable, moving the toolchain 
from gcc to clang, and code signatures being required when running iOS 
apps all contributed to make the feature go away. Perhaps they'll 
revive that feature now that their toolchain is more stable. File 
enhancement requests on Apple's bug tracker if you want to put some 
pressure on them to resurrect the feature.
