OSX has dtrace. Hard to imagine a better debugging tool.


While dtrace is a wonderful tool, it is a little disappointing that when Apple adopted it from Sun that they modified it so that setting a simple flag in your code (P_LNOATTACH) will prevent it being traced. http://dtrace.org/blogs/ahl/2008/01/18/mac-os-x-and-the-miss...


Is Dtrace fully integrated with Xcode now?


It's been fully integrated with Instruments for some time now.
