duplicates:

  • SR-11593 REPL incorrectly reports URL as nil

Issue Description:

The Xcode debugger fails to display some Foundation Types correctly

in the Variables Pane. lldb also fails to print these same types

correctly using 'frame v' and 'print' however it does correctly

print them using 'po'.

This is easily seen using the attached project. Set a breakpoint

on the print statement in the ViewController class and debug

the app. Once the breakpoint is hit some Foundation Types will

display correctly in the Variables Pane and will print correctly

using frame v and p. These include Data, NotificationName,

Notification and builtin types like Int, and Float. ClosedRange

also works as expected.

A number of other types fail to display correctly in the Varibles

Pane and also fail to print correctly with frame v and print. They do

print correctly with po. These include Date, TimeZone, URL, Calendar

DateComponents, IndexPath. I haven't tested every type so others

probably fail as well.

Optionals of these failing types always display as nil in the

Variables Pane and in lldb frame v even when they aren't nil.

All these types work as expected in a playground and the descriptions

displayed in a playground for these types is what I expect to see

in Xcode and in lldb.

I've attached the project, the playground, and a couple screenshots

of what this looks like in Xcode.

Comment by Dave (JIRA)

@poya - despite the chronology I would say SR-11593 is a specific case of this root cause issue. If you want to close one as a duplicate, I would closed SR-11593 so focus stays on the root cause.
