would it work to use a binary editor - that is, a hex editor - to alter the name of the symbol you're linking to, at which point you call abort(), divide by zero, or call a method that exists only so you can set a breakpoint in it?
You might need to learn the intimate details of the Mach-O executable format to pull this off, but it would be useful to know how to do this. At the point you broke into the debugger, or what have you, you could look at a stack trace. Alternatively you could edit the Simulator's version of that private framework, so that it calls abort() &c., Michael David Crawford, Consulting Software Engineer [email protected] http://www.warplife.com/mdc/ Available for Software Development in the Portland, Oregon Metropolitan Area.
