CodeWarrior was such a cool name. I wish Apple kept it over Xcode :)

CodeWarrior wasn't an Apple product; it was a third-party IDE made by a company called Metrowerks.

CodeWarrior was commercial software, Apple's pre-OS X developer tools were called "Macintosh Programmer's Workshop".

It was bought up by Motorola/Freescale around the turn of the century and lived on as tools for embedded processors until fairly recently, although the later releases were based on Eclipse.

I wrote MPW tools integration for MetroWerks on contract; I delivered it to the VP Engineering for MWerks in person.
