What's it mean when my break point marker turns orange? In the Breakpoints window, the checkbox has a dash in it instead of a check. Is it because that code isn't loaded? Because after it's loaded, the breakpoints do not enable and I the app doesn't stop at the break point.

I don't know what the "official definition" of what that orange breakpoint state is, but it's effectively disabled and, as you note, doesn't do anything.

The solution for me was to go into xCode Preferences, click on the "Debugging" icon and uncheck the box that says "Load symbols lazily". Once I did that, the breakpoints turned blue, and I was in business.


http://developer.apple.com/releasenotes/DeveloperTools/Xcode/Xcode.html says:

◦ Pended breakpoints are shown as orange in the editor gutter.

Now that's not that fulfilling a definition, but it is there, and very discoverable with the search term "orange".

As you discovered, an orange breakpoint is one set in a library that is not yet loaded. It will take effect when the library is loaded, either lazily by dyld or explicitly by your software.
