Problem
Instruments\' Time Profiler is stripping all symbols except system libraries from my app, despite the fact that I have disabled this behavior in
I have a lot of third party frameworks whose symbols and binaries are unfortunately getting lost.
Additionally, my app's binary was getting lost.
I.e. if I selected File > Symbols, clicked my target, and found the similarly named item, the Binary Path was showing up red.
The solution was to go to Instruments > Preferences > Symbols, and add /Users/
to the search paths. Library
is not indexed by Spotlight. After doing this, I have at least had the symbols for my app. The little circle next to my app's name goes from Yellow to Green when I do this, and persists between restarting Instruments, unlike other solutions to manually set the binary.
Let me know if you can tell me how to get all the ones for my third party frameworks. I use Carthage for some, others installed manually. Have had no luck with these yet.
