Product:Developer Tools Product Version:5.1
Classification:Enhancement Reproducible:Not Applicable
 
Summary:
Even though Xcode supports playing a sound on a breakpoint, it takes 5 steps to set up one. This enhancement should add support to add a sound breakpoint in one step with only a keystroke/action.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click to set the breakpoint
2. Edit breakpoint
3. Select “Sound” action
4. Select the sound
5. Select “Automatically continue after evaluating”


Expected Results:
Be able to set a sound breakpoint with one click.
Be able to assign a different sound breakpoint with one click.

Actual Results:


Version:
Xcode 5.1
Build version 5B130a

10.9.2

Notes:
A straight forward implementation would be to add Xcode support for a custom keyboard shortcut to assign a sound.

An enhanced implementation could offer a "Compose" view to be able to compose a tune by assigning sounds across a codebase.
