On the one hand, it's great that OSX is so flexible that you can
implement missing functionality externally via script, but the
whole point, being that OSX is now up to Leopard, is that a script
shouldn't have to be used for such a common task: dropping/
disabling all (non-global) breakpoints. Sure looks like an
oversight in the product to me.
I'm guessing it's not as common a task as some people think. Of
course I make breakpoints while debugging and want to get rid of
them once I've solved a bug, but in my Carbon app I have a
breakpoint set at onLuaPanic (so I can see the stack if there's a
problem running a Lua script), and in my Cocoa app I have a
breakpoint at -[NSException raise]. I want both of these to be
permanent.
I see I also have one set at szone_error -- I'd completely
forgotten about it, but I think that should be permanent too.
That's exactly the sort of thing that Clear All Breakpoints would
hose. It's a feature I would NEVER use, and don't want cluttering
up my UI.
Oh, well, there are lots of commands I never use and wish weren't
cluttering the UI. ;-) I never use anything in the Syntax Coloring
submenu, for example, and I never specify Icelandic (Mac OS) text
encoding. I suspect there are existing commands in Xcode that are
used less often than people would use a Clear All Breakpoints command
if it were available.
