By setting a Breakpoint at objc_exception_throw or [NSException raise] I am able to stop my program when (for example) an out of range exception is thrown. However the call stack trace on the debugger window or the 'bt' command only shows a single line. For example:

I've also had this happen occasionally with various breakpoints (not just objc_exception_throw); I'm not sure what causes it or how to prevent it.

Is this in a debug or a release build of your app? Optimized code can sometimes lead to confused backtraces, although it should never get this bad.

A common cause of a truncated backtrace on exception handling is if your function somehow corrupted the return stack, which may also have caused the exception in the first place.  A buffer overrun or bad cast on a function local is a common cause of this.

Thanks to all for your replies. I actually have all sorts of problems related to the call stack with the debugger, for example the step over command usually does not work, and it performs a step into instead. This is annoying because it turns de debugger completely useless, without the ability to see the stack trace or to run the app step by step.

I am using XCode 3.0 and yes, I compile the app as debug with compiler optimisation turned off and debug symbols generation enabled. I start to get frustrated about it because I don't get it. 


And just in case, which debug symbol format ? You should use dwarf, if this is not the case, it may be the cause of your problems.
