I'm impressed by Xcode's ability to often "just work" when I set a
breakpoint in a dependent project's source file. For instance, if I
have a project Tree.xcodeproj that depends on an Apple.dylib built by
Apple.xcodeproj, I can open Apple.xcodeproj, and set a breakpoint on
"MakeApple()", go back to Tree.xcodeproj, debug, and hit the
breakpoint!
Sometimes!
It's unpredictable. I don't quite understand it. In fact, it's so
unpredictable that sometimes my shenanigans lead to "phantom
breakpoints" that are listed in some Breakpoints list but don't show up
graphically in any editor window.
I have found that if I want to "stay sane" I have to manually add
symbolic breakpoints in "Tree.xcodeproj" instead of adding them
graphically in editors owned by Apple.xcodeproj and hoping for the
best.
Is there any great advice for how I might be able to easily get
breakpoints set in Apple.xcodeproj to be inherited by Tree.xcodeproj?
Another trick I use sometimes is to make sure that the source file in
question from Apple.xcodeproj gets opened inside the context of
Tree.xcodeproj. Then if I graphically set a breakpoint it seems to get
associated more reliably with debugging that project.
Would it make sense to enhance Xcode such that Cmd-Clicks to editor
margins in other projects would set breakpoints at the click point in
the front-most project?
