Status:Open Resolved:No
Product:Developer Tools Product Version:4.2 / 4228
Classification:Serious Bug Reproducible:Always
 
Summary:
Instruments is not capable to find the dSYM files generated by Xcode build process when profiling an app with the latest Xcode 4.2.

The path of the symbols are not saved on subsequent launches of Instruments.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use the latest Xcode 4.2 DP.
2. Run Product -> Profile on the device (iOS 5 Beta 7).
3. Select any instrument (Time Profiler would be the easiest to indicate this).

Expected Results:
Instruments should show the symbols of the app.

Actual Results:
It doesn't show any symbols, in cases where the debugging symbols are generated and not stripped.

Regression:
In a few rare cases, the symbols do show up, after it's re-symbolicated and selecting the right path. But, the searching process and locate function always indicate that the UUID of the dSYM doesn't match with the framework binaries.

Then, in lots of cases, the app hangs even when the exact path is selected and added.
