In Xcode, is there a way to bypass the "All Exceptions" breakpoints for just one or a few lines?
This line of code is slowly confusing me:
NSDictionary* rectangle3FontAttributes = @{NSFontAttributeName: [UIFont fontWithName: @"TrajanPro3-Regular" size: 18], NSForegroundColorAttributeName: theCoverLogoColor, NSParagraphStyleAttributeName: rectangle3Style};
... which for some reason raises an inner exception. The program continues without issue, but my exception checkpoint catches it every time the viewport changes the file I was looking at, and requires me to click continue for each ... one ... run.
Is there a pragma or something to bypass the exception breakpoints for multiple lines?
FYI, it's not even NSException
. It is listed on the call stack as __cxa_throw
callableTFFileDescriptorContext(char const *)

If you are not debugging C ++ code, or are simply not interested in C ++ exceptions, include only ObjC exceptions, then you won't hit it.
If this is not the case, you can write breakpoint-based Python commands in lldb (although you cannot yet save them in the breakpoint editor). It is very easy to make a Python command that restarts the debugger based on the callers of the current stop. Here's an example of a simple Python based breakpoint command in the docs:
http://lldb.llvm.org/python-reference.html
You need to do something like:
def AvoidTTFileDescriptorContext(frame, bp_loc, dict):
parent = frame.thread.frames[1]
if parent.name == "TFFileDescriptorContext":
return False
else:
return True
Place this function in, say, ~ / lldb_bkpt_cmds.py.
The exception breakpoint is a normal breakpoint, so if you do:
(lldb) break list
in the Xcode console you can find it. Let's say it's breakpoint 1, then do:
(lldb) command script import ~/lldb_bkpt_cmds.py
(lldb) break command add -F lldb_bkpt_cmds.AvoidTTFileDescriptorContext 1
Then Xcode will automatically continue when it hits that breakpoint and the caller name is TFFileDescriptorContext.
