Folk,
If you've seen this sort of question a million times and value your
time, you may want to read the email bottom to top.
I have a situation where I can't get Xcode to stop on breakpoints set
in my Unit Tests. I have read through the archives and consulted
google and done my best to resolve this myself before asking for help.
By way of background, I have:
1] Ensured that I can build my project cleanly with all tests passing.
2] I know the difference between "build time" and runtime and when you can and
can not expect a breakpoint to be hit.
3] I can even call [NSApp delegate] and get my applications delegate
from within
a unit test, so it appears that code injection is working properly
during at build time.
4] Lazy loading of symbols is turned off.
So, my best guess is that that code injection is not happening at
runtime. Here's why:
* Console output of tests is not visible, which indicates that tests
are not being executed at runtime
* Unit test breakpoints are "orange" indicating that GDB can not
locate the instructions/code
But interestingly, running lsof against the running application, I can
see that DevToolsBundleInjection is being opened
What can I do to gain some insight into what is actually happening
with DevToolsBundleInjection? For example, since breakpoints set in my
application code *do* work, is there a means of using GDB that would
allow me to determine with certainty whether or not my test code has
been properly injected? Anything else I should try?
BTW, DevToolsBundleInjection injects code at runtime only, yes? So
running class-dump against the executable won't help...
Xcode Version -- 3.1.2
OS X -- 10.5.6
Cheers,
Robert Evans
