Question

I just can’t figure.. I’ve seem people debugging by NSLog… isn’t there a IDE integrated way to check this out? like watchlist

this code is returning false, and I just want to see what is going on there..

if(sqlite3_step(selectstmt) == SQLITE_DONE)

thanks

It’s not done, that’s the problem. It either encountered an error or has more rows. If you want to trace it in the debugger, you need something to actually watch. For example:

int result = SQLITE_DONE;
if( (result = sqlite3_step(select stmt)) == SQLITE_DONE ) /* do stuff */

Now you can actually break here, or watch the result variable (although, given its automatic scope, watching it wouldn’t be extremely useful). Also, with any debugger, the more your code is compacted onto a single line, the harder it is for the debugger to reasonably let you know what’s going on. If you had broken out your code more, it’d be obvious where to stop the debugger:

int result = sqlite_step(selectstmt);
if( result == SQLITE_DONE ) /* do stuff */ // <- now it's easy to see what's going on in a debugger
