Featured iPhone Development Resources,iOS Development Libraries,Objective-C,Open Source iOS Libraries And ToolsI’ve mentioned a number of useful open source projects for more meaningful logs such as this excellent Xcode plugin for colorizing debug console text.
Here’s a handy NSBlock category from Conrad Kramer called BlockTypeDescription that makes log statements related to a block considerably more descriptive.
An example from the readme:
This produces the following result with BlockTypeDescription:
This is my block! < __nsglobalblock__: (id (^)(id, char, struct CGRect, float*[30]))>
rather than the default:
This is my block! < __nsglobalblock__: 0x35c0>
You can find BlockTypeDescription on Github here.
A very useful add-on for working with blocks.
