Somehow, after spending time away from my project, I've suddenly
lost the ability to view most local instance variables in the
debugger.
I was using Xcode 2.4.1 (didn't work), upgraded to 2.5 (didn't
work), even uninstalled all dev tools and installed 2.5 (didn't
work), all on 10.4.11.
Note that the instance variables that I had trouble with are
prepended with underscores (i.e. _mySecretVar). I know the
NamingMethods article frowns upon this, but only ivars are being
named this way, not methods. Besides, changed the names to lack
underscores, cleaned all, recompiled, and was left with the same mess.
For reference, my build settings:
- Optimization: None (saw the prior posts on this)
- Verbose undefined symbols: YES
- Strip Linked Product: NO
- Strip Style: Debugging Symbols
- Strip Debug Symbols During Copy: NO
- Generate Debug Symbols: YES
Is there something I'm missing?
Not that I can tell.
Has Apple chosen to enforce their reserved naming conventions?
Nope.
Some questions:
• What do you mean by "view"? Do they not show up in the Variables
pane of the debugger, but others do?
• What do you mean by "most?" Some do, some don't?
• Are you sure you're debugging your Debug configuration?
• If you open the Expressions window, can you enter your locals into
it and see their values?
• If you open the gdb console and type "p _mySecretVar" does it print
the value?
• Are you talking about C++ ivars or Objective-C ivars?
• What's your Debug Information Format?
