Debugging an iOS app in the simulator

Elements Fire
1

The Fire debugger doesn’t seem to work too well with the iOS simulator. For example this code hooked up to a button click

method MainViewController.doStuff(sender: id);
begin
NSLog(’%@’,‘Hello’);
var stuff : String := nil;
NSLog(’%d’,stuff.length);
end;

Will cause Fire to crash.

Something similar in an desktop Cocoa app will stop in Fire on the line that caused the problem.

Cheers,
John

Reproduced; seems to be a regression/bug in the new LLDV/LLDB build we updated to :(. We’ll of course get this sorted for Friday.

i can’t test right now, myself — i assume on-device debugging s working ok for you?

Thanks.

Sorry I’m not sure if on-device debugging is working but I do plan trying it out this weekend.

ok, the issue is confirmed fixed,so hopefully you’ll have that fix in your hand by Friday :wink:

I tried debugging on a device with the latest, it works really well. Thanks.

Glad to hear!

I trust it that Simulator debugging is fixed for you as well?
