I'm not clear why it took you forever to find this.

Xcode Help > Documentation
Enter "debug arguments" into the search bubble and choose Full-Text Search
Second hit is "Xcode Help: Editing and Executable Environment"
On that page is a section "Command-Line Arguments and Environment Variables"


file:///Developer/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Resources/ English.lproj/Xcode_Help/Running/chapter_7_section_6.html

Steps, pictures, everything.

Chris - for whatever reason I've never had good luck with searching Xcode's documentation.


I just went to Xcode Help > Documentation.
Switched to Full-Text Search
Typed in debug arguments in the search bubble
I get absolutely zero responses

(I am seeing the Xcode document in the window and I can click around in it so it's not like the document is not on my computer).

I must have something set up wrong but I basically gave up on the Xcode help a long time ago.
Though in this case I did try to find it manually before I finally gave up and just went with the "hunt and peck" method.


There are many things about Xcode I like but the one that drives me nuts is the different property sets:
There are properties assigned to the project which you can get to by Command-I on the project file.
There are properties assigned to the target.
There are properties assigned to the executable.
There are properties assigned to files within the project.


On numerous occasions I've hunted thru all of those looking for a particular setting. In the example of above I looked
at the project properties and the target properties but forgot to look in the executable properties.


It's probably just my problem but seems there must be an easier way to see all of this.

Mike
