I have switched to DWARF as you suggested and this seems to have solved the issue for me in that I haven't had any problems with the debugger at all for the last couple of days.

Looks like I spoke too soon.

Single-stepping reliability has been degrading constantly over the past 24 hours. Finally, I was in the same situation as when I wrote my original post: unable to step over or into any ObjC call due to debugger getting stuck in the disassembly of the ObjC method dispatch code.

On a hunch, I cleaned my project, including deleting pre-compiled headers and re-built. Hey, presto, single-stepping in the debugger works again!

I suspect (but haven't verified) that using DWARF symbols has nothing to do with solving the issue. Instead, it caused me to clean and re- build my project which was probably the reason debugging started working again.

Do you have any idea why the debugger behavior/reliability would degrade like this?

Simon Wilson
