My App Crashed, Now What?

Another very good tutorial by Matthijs Hollemans has been published on Ray Wenderlich’s website , this time focusing on how to debug a crash in our application.

Being very busy with development at the moment I just gave it a look and it seems promising as usual. Here are the links to the two parts of it:

Enjoy the study!

iOS 5.1 and Xcode 4.3.1 for Lion

On the day of the new iPad, many of us also noticed that a new version of iOS has been released together with a new version of the IDE.

Many changes occurred, the most relevant in my understanding are:

  • A new API will allow to mark files or directories that should not be backed up.
  • Photo Stream photos can now be deleted on one device and other devices will have those removed automatically as well.
  • UIKIT sees changes in the way the UISplitViewController class adopts the sliding presentation style when presenting the left view (previously only seen in Mail).
  • Xcode 4.3.1 is now distributed as a single application bundle and the /Developer folder is now bundled instead of residing elsewhere on your machine.

I went through the installation of both Xcode 4.3.1 and iOS 5.1 myself quite smoothly – by the way also iTunes got updated to version 10.6 – and I am now testing my  applications to see if everything goes fine as before or better.
