在gdb中调试Objective-C时向对象发送消息,不带符号

时间:2020-03-05 18:51:25  来源:igfitidea点击:

我正在尝试向gdb中的Objective-C对象发送消息。

(gdb) p $esi
 = (void *) 0x1268160
(gdb) po $esi
<NSArray: 0x1359c0>
(gdb) po [$esi count]
Target does not respond to this message selector.

我无法向它发送任何消息。我想念什么吗?我真的需要符号,还是其他?

我们是否可能需要转换$ esi

p (NSUInteger)[(NSArray *)$esi count]

然后,它抱怨缺少符号。

(gdb) p (NSUInteger)[(NSObject*)$esi retainCount]
No symbol table is loaded.  Use the "file" command.
(gdb) p [(NSArray *)$esi count]
No symbol "NSArray" in current context.

我试图为Foundation加载符号:

(gdb) add-symbol-file /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Foundation 
add symbol table from file "/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Foundation"? (y or n) y
Reading symbols from /System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Foundation...done.

但仍然没有运气:

(gdb) p [(NSArray *)$esi count]
No symbol "NSArray" in current context.

无论如何,我不认为强制转换是解决此问题的方法,我们不必知道它是哪种对象,就可以向它发送消息。
奇怪的是,我发现将消息发送到以下位置的NSCFArray没有问题:

(gdb) p $eax
 = 367589056
(gdb) po $eax
<NSCFArray 0x15e8f6c0>(
    file://localhost/Users/ask/Documents/composing-fractals.pdf
)

(gdb) p (int)[$eax retainCount]
 = 1

所以我想我正在调查的对象有问题...

谢谢你的帮助!

如果必须重写gdb并在不允许的情况下向对象发送消息,则可以使用performSelector:

(gdb) print (int)[receivedData count]
Target does not respond to this message selector.

(gdb) print (int)[receivedData performSelector:@selector(count) ]
2008-09-15 00:46:35.854 Executable[1008:20b] *** -[NSConcreteMutableData count]:
unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x105f2e0

如果需要传递参数,请使用withObject:

(gdb) print (int)[receivedData performSelector:@selector(count) withObject:myObject ]
