I have an issue where Xcode always launches my device builds through GDB. Even though I choose “Build & Run” and not “Build & Debug” from the Build menu it launches through GDB. My simulator launches works as they’re supposed to – through GDB only when I choose “Build & Debug”.
Is this normal behavior? It seems strange to me to not be able to launch normally on device.
I tried creating a new fresh project and that is also always launched through GDB so it seems that the error is in Xcode and not in a single project.
Are there any Xcode caches, preferences and stuff that might help deleting? I haven’t tried uninstall and reinstall yet.
I’m running Xcode 3.2.3 and it’s a fresh install on a new computer. I have not tried installing Xcode 4.
Yes it is normal behaviour. I saw a reference a long time ago that suggested that in fact that was the only way that a process could be remotely launched.
Why is it an issue?
