  • Thread-topic: Help Getting Started With Instruments

I realize this question should probably go to the developer forums, but I am hoping someone can help me before the forums come back online.

I am trying to get started with Instruments to profile an iOS application. (Xcode 4.6.3, Build SDK iOS 6.1, Deployment SDK iOS 5.0, iPad-only).

I am able to collect data (I'm looking at allocations and leaks at the moment), but the data is displayed without symbolization. (I.e, EVERYTHING on the call-stack is shown as hex addresses.) Obviously, I'd find the process much easier to use if the data was resolved to useful symbols, but it is not.

This leads to two questions:

[1] Why not? Shouldn't the symbols be shown by default? Which build setting should I look at to try to fix this?

[2] I tried to re-symbolize the trace. BUT, the dialog wants me to select a path to the DSYM file, which is located buried deep in my Library folder and the dialog HIDES the Library folder. How do I point the trace to the correct DSYM file if it is in a hidden folder??

Can anyone offer any help or suggestions to get me going? 

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
