I submitted an Apple bug report #5952123. This is getting pretty ridiculous that I can't even debug properly with the development tools. Guess I'll have to cross my fingers that this gets fixed.

I recommend something more proactive than crossing your fingers. One approach is to upgrade to more recent tools; Xcode 3.0 was release six months ago, and we've been actively seeding an upcoming release since March. As we're nearing the end of a product cycle, the likelihood of immediate new changes (especially for a design issue which has been in the product for five years) is pretty small.


The other thing is to use the existing features to manage the issue.

- Enable and Disable breakpoints with the breakpoints window
- Use conditional breakpoints to only break on certain conditions

In Xcode 3.0 there's a very convenient "Enable/Disable Breakpoints" tool that essentially switches an executable between Run and Debug mode on the fly. So your workflow could be:

- set the breakpoint in the shared code
- run application A
- hit breakpoint, continue
- launch application B
- disable breakpoints
- switch to application A

This should allow you to run two apps at the same time that share common code, and hit breakpoints only in one of them.
