I'm having an intermittent issue (but happening more and more) with
Xcode losing connection to the app being debugged. What I mean is, it
hits a breakpoint and, while the app freezes, the Xcode UI never shows
it. Another way it happens - while stepping through, I hit "Step Over"
and nothing happens. At that point, I have to kill the app and start
over, which wastes time and generally annoys me. I've tried
clean-n-build and killing the user files in the project package. Any
other suggestions?
I had a similar experience just a few days ago. I tried to step over an
instruction and the debugger just froze. Other times it appeared to
crash my machine.
HOWEVER, once I took my meds and calmed down and investigated more
thoroughly, I discovered that the instruction I stepped over caused a
destructor to be called, which tried to take apart and destroy a deep,
complicated object. Because of a recent set of changes I had made, I had
followed a path where that object had not been properly initialized, so
contained garbage. Imagine my chagrin. It was bad enough that the
destructor just ran off into the weeds in some sort of infinite loop,
and it appears that when I ran it under the debugger, the debugger just
took all of the CPU, which is why I thought it crashed the machine.
Anyway, is it possible that you're doing something similar?
