I've been trying to debug our app after linking with the "Only Link
In Essential Symbols" pref. Has anyone used this feature
successfully? I'm assuming it's sort of a halfway point between
linking all symbols and Zerolink, right?
The docs say it can't normally be debugged without all the .o
files, but even with all the .o's I can't seem to stop on any
breakpoints. Breakpoints work just fine for me with this feature off.
I know breakpoints have been discussed many times on this list, but
I wasn't able to find any info tying those problems to the
Essential Symbols pref. Has anyone run into this since switching to
Xcode 2.2 and, if so, were you able to work around it?
We've had exactly the same problem here. I posted the following
message about it to the list, but it doesn't seem to have made it
into the archives:

I've enabled this flag in several of my projects in an effort to
reduce link times. All the projects share some static libraries,
included as subprojects. Enabling the flag has caused breakpoints to
fail - when a breakpoint is hit I get the following status message:
"MyApp exited with status (10). The Debugger is still running. Use
'Restart' to debug again"
Although it states that the debugger is still running, the console
shows that in fact gdb has crashed - see crash log below.
