I've successfully done this inside a multi-target project; one target is the main app, the other the bundle. Setting breakpoints inside the bundle works OK.

If you can't do a multi-target project, try having both projects open while debugging...

The way I do this is as follows:

static NSBundle* thisBundle = nil;

@implementation mainBundleClass

+ (void) bundleInitialize {
if (!thisBundle) {
thisBundle = [NSBundle bundleForClass:[self class]];
}
}

Usually you would load the bundle and call [mainBundleClass bundleInitialize] first, then all mainBundleClass's methods can call [thisBundle pathForImageResource:@"foo"], for instance.
