XCode & GDB
Lately, I’ve learned how to use GDB with XCode and it’s awesome! It really saves your lots of time debugging an app. I was having lots of trouble trying to figure out why an instance variable was not retaining it’s value in a new method.
Well, it happen to be I was using a UITableViewDelegate and those methods where being called before my setter method and so the instance variable was nil, the only way I found this out was by using GDB and believe me NSLog for debugging is not always going to work.

Did you follow a tutorial on how to learn it? I have been trying to learn it but have not succeeded very well at it.

@Kolby, I watched Bill Dudney’s screencast of Debugging Objective-C. It’s good. http://pragprog.com/screencasts/v-bdobjc/coding-in-objective-c-2-0

Hey Fernyb,
We are all so grateful to the great work you have done over the years. I noticed that GAMV-PHP is down and I wondered if we might see software releases anymore ?
