{}) @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015
Error messages make no sense @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015
What?! That tool exists? @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015

LLDB @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015
Expression (lldb) po objectiveCString 0x00007fbaa1f24910 (ObjectiveC.NSObject = {}) @_Caro _N,

Expression (lldb) expression -O -- objectiveCString 0x00007fbaa1f24910 (ObjectiveC.NSObject = {})
@_Caro _N, 22/3/2015
Magic command (lldb) expression -l objc -O -- (id) 0x00007fbaa1f24910

Activity Tracing Trace crashes in asynchonous code os_activity_t activity =
os_activity_start("activity name", OS_ACTIVITY_FLAG_DEFAULT); // [...] os_activity_set_breadcrumb("event description"); // [...] os_trace("Received %d creates, %d updates, %d deletes", created, updated, deleted); // [...] os_activity_end(activity); @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015

Summary • expression -l objc -O -- (id) 0x00007fbaa1f24910 •
Edit Breakpoints, add symbolic and exception breakpoints • Tackle incomprehensive compiler errors • Launch arguments • Charles, REPL, Activity tracing @_Caro _N, 22/3/2015
