I’m just getting started with Xcode and Open Frameworks (OF). I asked Zach for some tips & tricks for debugging, figuring out what’s going on, and generally navigating xcode in useful ways. These include:

• use “endl” with comments to separate out each time it runs in the console output
• breakpoint for debugging and seeing what’s currently defined
• code completion to see what methods an object has
• right click to ‘jump to definition’
• add TODO notes for yourself in the code, and you can find them in the navigator at the top
• use the navigator to see what functions exist in that file
• “ctrl, command, up” for switching between header and cpp file
