Lyndsey,

I put this in the bug (but this will get to you faster...):

It's odd that Crash Reporter is getting into the game at all. Xcode sends gdb the "kill" command, and in that command gdb calls the ptrace PT_KILL command. gdb still has the task port of the program we're debugging, so Crash Reporter should not be getting any messages about the target program's death...

Can you attach the Xcode-gdb log for the bug? For extra credit, before you hit the stop button, go to the gdb console and type:

(gdb) set debug exceptions 10
(gdb) set debug inferior 10
(gdb) set debug signals on

and then hit the Stop button.  Then attach the log to the Radar.

Thanks.

Jim

Hi Everyone,
When I'm debugging an application in Leopard with Xcode 2.5 on a Dual Core MacPro computer, I often will halt an application's execution by hitting the "Stop" sign button in Xcode.

This often results in my application *not* quitting as the CPU activity spikes as CrashReporter steps in to apparently gather data for its report. Then I wait and wait until CrashReporter is satisfied.

This didn't used to happen in Mac OS X 10.4 with Xcode 2.4.1. How do I turn this off?

I currently recommend to my peers that they should select CrashReporter from the Activity Monitor and Force Quit it, but there has to be a better way. Is there?
Thanks,
Lyndsey Ferguson
