Xcode 6 Playground keeps asking for my user's password.

I'm starting with Swift Basics.

I'm an experienced web developer, and made a couple of experiments with Objective C thanks to the courses here at Treehouse.

I downloaded Xcode 6.0.1 (6A317) from the App Store, and created a Playground to work with Swift.

Something that I find very annoying is that every time I open the playground, or make changes on it I get Keychain asking for my user's password:

"com.apple.dt.xcode.playground.xpc needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue"

or...

"Developer Tools Access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue"

I'm using the admin user on the computer. Also, my developer keys are in the login group.

Has anyone experienced this? What can I do to solve it. It's very annoying.

I just worked around of it by using sudo DevToolsSecurity --enable`.

However I wonder if there is a better solution.

I have never seen that before. Glad you found a solution.

Thanks Aaron Ackerman , it seems that DevToolsSecurity is reset each time Xcode is updated.
