What do people think about using Xcode vs CodeWarrior for building RealBasic plugins?

Xcode is a little bit more work, especially for cross-platform plugins, since it can only compile Mach-O plugins (OS X only). You'll need to also get a Windows development environment for developing the Windows version of your plug-in. But, otherwise, it's all pretty similar.

I'm presently using RB 5.5.2. Should I upgrade to 5.5.5 and would this be helpful for using Xcode?

That's a free update, not an upgrade, and yes, you should certainly do so. I recommend always getting the free maintenance updates; why deal with bugs that have already been fixeds?

Best,
- Joe
