Now my code routines automatically show up.

>Add the correct version as a search path to Shark.

I've done this with no success.

In Shark Prefs I added Symbol Rich files to /myNewSDK/Platforms/ iPhoneOS.platform/DeviceSupport/
and all variations and levels into the 3.0 version symbols.
I also tried copying this folder to the standard $(DEVELOPER_DIR)/ Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform//DeviceSupport/
and adding that as a symbol rich path.


Rebuilt the app, run it on the device and bring up Shark. Do the standard start/stop pointing at the device. All this works and my routine names show up scattered among Unknown library methods.

Are there any other steps to making Shark recognize the actual OS code base symbols?

Thanks,
Scott

Shark is doing a spotlight search for the com_apple_xcode_dsym_uuids property. The contents of that property are the UUIDs of the various binaries. Assuming Spotlight is enabled and the privacy settings are not set for the volume, you should be able to make a query using mdfind. You'll need the UUID of a binary that should be on the system. One way to find one is to run 'dwarfdump -u' on your binary. An mdfind on that UUID should return the dSYM for the binary.

Now, the binaries that are part of the iPhoneOS won't be located by Spotlight (mainly because we only lookup the dSYMs that way), but they are automatically searched via an implicit search path. Sadly, that search path, currently, only includes device support folders in /Developer. If you look in $(DEVELOPER_DIR)/Platforms/ iPhoneOS.platform/, there should be a folder named DeviceSupport or similar. This contains stub binaries for each released version of iPhoneOS. Add the correct version as a search path to Shark. The reason just adding the SDK won't work is that the binaries in the SDK are from the a specific major version of iPhoneOS (i.e. the 2.2 SDK includes the binaries from 2.2.0 and not 2.2.1). The DeviceSupport folder includes the binaries from every released version of iPhoneOS and so one of the folders will match the binaries running on your device.

Note that for Shark to consider a binary to be a match, the UUID will need to be the same. This generally means that a recompile of an application will not match since the UUID will differ even though the original source might be the same.

Thanks for responding.

Shark 4.7.0 (244.4)
iPhone OS 3.0 beta 5

I forced a reindex with Spotlight previously but will try again with a terminal command.
The SDK is outside the standard Developer folder since 2 versions have to be installed.


Any other suggestions?

Scott

In the most recent SDK for the iPhone when I run shark I get Unknown Library for everything.
If I symbolicate then my routine names show up but no library or OS routines are named.


I've added the pathway to the latest SDK to the search path prefs for symbol rich files.

Any suggestions for getting the actual framework methods to show up?

Thanks.

What version of Shark? Newer versions use Spotlight to locate the symbol-rich versions of binaries. They also automatically search the various device support folders included with the SDKs.
