That was uncalled for. An Apple engineer is actually trying to help you figure out why the debugger isn't working for you. They don't have to do that you know...

Don't lecture me.

If nothing else, the ability to debug gdb from gdb to diagnose a problem and potentially get a fix is a neat trick.

It's a neat trick if you can figure out that cryptic stuff and a neat trick I never needed before using Xcode. If you consider that insulting, well, you have every right to interpret it that way.


Then don't use the command line. Start debugging your application; open a second instance of Xcode, open a dummy project (I don't really know why this is necessary, but if you don't the required menu item is greyed out), attach to gdb, add the symbolic breakpoints for abort and exit (or _abort and _exit, whichever it requires).

I don't recall if gdb will show up in that menu or not, but if not, open Activity Monitor and grab the pid from there.
