can not use gdb debug mac app

I used homebrew installed gdb, and created code sign for it. It seems I have installed it completed. But when I use gdb command to debug the app in /Applicaions, it always prompted me no such file or directory, I have no idea about it. My system is 10.9.4, and GDB version is 7.7.1.

Wait for your help!

GDB does not automatically load application bundle directories. You need to give it the path to the main Mach-O executable. Something like /Applications/Reveal.app/Contents/MacOS/....

I don't know what the main executable for Reveal.app is named, but if it is named Reveal your command would look like this.

gdb /Applications/Reveal.app/Contents/MacOS/Reveal
