Reaching the limits of 'learn by example'

Hi all,

thanks to the help and example applications etc available everywhere regarding Cocoa and Objective C, I'm just about to have my second app ready (my first Obj-C one though).
But I don't know Objective-C, nor C. So any help regarding this little problem would be great:

I'm creating a dockling to control sound level. I have the dockling appearing, the menu also, and I figured I could know on which level the user has clicked by setting for each level:
[menuItem setRepresentedObject:tString];
with tString being 0-6.
When I try to get back the representedObject, nothing happens.
NSString *level = [sender representedObject];
What is worse, is I'm not able to print out the value that I get for level.I tried using NSLog, but it won't compile anymore if I add:
NSLog (@"level is:%@",level)

So:
- how can I debug without using project builder (it won't let me launch a dockling which is only a bundle)?
- how can I be sure that I get the value the user clicked on back?

thanks
