I tried that... it isn't behaving for me.
I can attach to the PID of the running process (The Debugger window
says "GDB: Program loaded." in the bottom left corner and I have the
stop/restart/pause buttons available) but when I try to do something
such as pause the program, nothing happens.
When I bring up the GDB console and try to do something I am told "The
program is not being run."
Here's what I'm doing:
* sudo <my app>
* ps xa | grep <my app> (To get the PID)
* Open XCode
* File->Open Recent Project-><My Project>
* Run->Attach to Process->Process ID...-><My PID>
And just in case it crosses anyone's mind... the executable I'm
running *is* the debug build of the exectuable. ;)
Am I doing something wrong?
Also, which debugging format should I use for something like this? Is
the "DWARF" default sufficient?

I'd like to use Xcode to debug my executable, which needs elevated

Can Xcode run an executable with elevated privileges?
Thanks,

In general, no. You can however have Xcode's debugger not launch
your program and then manually attach GDB to an already running
process.
