If I set the NSZombieEnabled variable to YES I get the following:
#0 0x9282b36d in -[NSException raise]
#1 0x92852247 in +[NSException raise:format:]
#2 0x928da79b in logMessageAndRaise
#3 0x927dc8af in NSPopAutoreleasePool
#4 0x932849d8 in loadNib
#5 0x932843d9 in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)
_loadNibFile:nameTable:withZone:ownerBundle:]
#6 0x9328403a in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)
loadNibFile:externalNameTable:withZone:]
#7 0x93283f7c in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading) loadNibNamed:owner:]
#8 0x93283cc3 in NSApplicationMain
#9 0x00405ffc in main at main.m:18
Console:
2008-03-07 01:33:24.728 XYZ[372] *** Selector 'release' sent to
dealloced instance 0x1baba2c0 of class NSConcreteData.
Break at '-[_NSZombie release]' to debug.
NOTE: I do an 'API' & and a Full-Text Search in the documentation
for 'NSConcreteData' and there is nothing! Not a single reference.
Google yields more but NSConcreteData is definitely not used directly
by my app.
*** How do I determine what 'instance 0x1baba2c0 of class
NSConcreteData' is?
If I add a global breakpoint for -[NSZombie release] I get:
#0 0x928da958 in -[_NSZombie release]
#1 0x927dc8af in NSPopAutoreleasePool
#2 0x932849d8 in loadNib
#3 0x932843d9 in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)

#4 0x9328403a in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)
loadNibFile:externalNameTable:withZone:]
#5 0x93283f7c in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading) loadNibNamed:owner:]
#6 0x93283cc3 in NSApplicationMain
#7 0x00405ffc in main at main.m:18
Nothing in the console.
How does this help me? What is useful about this? Is there a gdb
command I should invoke on frame 0?
If I 'Enable Guard Malloc" the application takes over 15 minutes and
finally appears to launch and but just seems to hang!
Nothing in the debugger or console....
If that doesn't work, I would try running with libgmalloc enabled.
You can turn that on with "Enable Guard Malloc" in the Xcode "Run"
menu.
Good Luck -

Folks;
Tiger 10.4.11 -- XC 2.4.1
I'm baffled by an IB error.
Reasonable development has been on-going.
Pretty stringent Build Rules and no errors or warnings.
I decide to do a clean build, torch the app's prefs file and the
CoreData store.
I want to focus on the initial installation phase of the app...
To my great surprise I cannot now get the app to launch
successfully. It ran fine 15 minutes beforehand...
Regardless of whether I 'Run' or 'Debug' I get the exact same result:
I get all the way through the appDelegate's -awakeFromNib and the
pref window opens (as I expect on first launch) but the debugger
kicks in with the following:
#0 0x90a594c7 in objc_msgSend
#1 0xbffff7b8 in ??
#2 0x932849d8 in loadNib
#3 0x932843d9 in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)
_loadNibFile:nameTable:withZone:ownerBundle:]
#4 0x9328403a in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading)
loadNibFile:externalNameTable:withZone:]
#5 0x93283f7c in +[NSBundle(NSNibLoading) loadNibNamed:owner:]
#6 0x93283cc3 in NSApplicationMain
#7 0x00405ffc in main at main.m:18
In the Console I see:
....Normal log messages that I generate and expect (including the
'end-of-awake-from-nib' stamp)
Program received signal: "EXC_BAD_ACCESS".
I have the [NSException raise] as a Global breakpoint but it
doesn't fire.
Using the po command I can tell that MainMenu is the nib involved;
the prefs window is in a separate nib...
How do I track this down?
Steve
