Xcode 6 View Debugging not available

Question

I'm debugging my project and moving it to support iOS 8. Among many other problems I've noticed that Xcode 6's new feature of view debugging is not available in the Debug Bar and is also not available in the Applications menu bar.

Is there a build setting for this feature?

Answer 1

Xcode 11.5 & 11.6:

Swift 5.2:

Edit scheme -> Run -> Info -> check the button Debug Executable

Now run the project. We can debug now ..!!!

Answer 2

Two things worth mentioning about view debugging:

a) Yes, there is a setting in Xcode to enable/disable view debugging per scheme. Edit your current scheme (Product > Scheme > Edit Scheme...) and check the 'Run > Options' section.

b) Even in Xcode 6.1 (6A1052d), two prerequisites need to be fulfilled for view debugging to work (at least in my experience):

• App needs to be running on a 32 bit device (iPhone 5 or older)
• App needs to be running on iOS 8 or newer

View debugging worked for me on both, actual devices and in the simulator (although it works more reliable for me on the simulator).

Answer 3

It's Working on Xcode 6 with iPhone 5s simulator

Answer 4

view debugging is only available after you run the application.Right now they are disable. Just run your app then go to view debugging
