With SSH keys, you can connect to Version Control Account (BitBucket/GitHub..) accounts without supplying your username or password at each visit.  We need to generate SSH key pair, Add the private key to ssh agent and public key to Version control account. 1. Generating SSH key pair Open  Terminal  and paste the text below, substituting in your email address or some unique key like employee Id. ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C " your_email@example.com " This creates a new ssh key, using the provided email as a label.

Advanced Debugging with Xcode and LLDB - WWDC 2018

Advanced Debugging Tips and Tricks: Injecting Code at runtime We can change values of variables at runtime while debugging (here variable_name is a Bool) expression variable_name = false  Here we are injecting value at runtime, so no need to run again to see the effect. (Other eg.,  expression animator.delegate = self) Under Xcode > Preferences > Behaviours > Running > Pauses > Check Show Tab Named, In order to show new tab while a breakpoint is hit. We can set other behaviours as well. We can add symbolic breakpoints on methods in frameworks. like This is in objective c because UIKit is in objective c. In order to find the values/parameter of a function inside framework, we can use For expression -[UILabel setText:] po $arg1 <UILabel ****> po (SEL)$arg2   "setText:" po $arg3 "0 ft" We can set symbolic breakpoints in 2 ways 1. By clicking plus in bottom left and choosing symbolic (Cons: Sets BP in all places) 2. By adding a breakpoi...
