If you build the framework with debug information (passing -g to the compiler) you shouldn't need to tell gdb anything. If you actually stop in code in your framework, Xcode should also show you that source. If you want to set breakpoints in source BEFORE you run code that loads the framework, however, you are going to have to tell Xcode about it. Easiest thing to do is make an Xcode Project that contains the source code, and us an "external makefile target" to build the framework. Then Xcode will know about it in the usual course of things.

Note that if you have code that you want to debug which wasn't built by Xcode, you will have to turn off the "Load symbols lazily" optimization in the Debugging tab of the Xcode Preferences, since that optimization relies on knowing which output products a given source file contributes to to do its job.

I have downloaded and built from source and open source framework. I am linking that framework to my app. I'd like to be able to use Xcode to debug into that framework, and view source, not assembly code. How do I tell Xcode/gdb that source files are available for this framework?
