## Debugging with XCode
### Build Debug Electron with Release libchromiumcontent
You can create a debug build of Electron by following [build instructions for macOS](build-instructions-osx.md).
The bootstrap process will download Release version of libchromiumcontent by default,
so you will not be able to step through the Chromium source.
### Build Debug Electron with Debug libchromiumcontent
If you want to debug and step through libchromiumcontent, you will have to run the
bootsrap script with the `--build_debug_libcc` argument.
```sh
$ cd electron
$ ./script/bootstrap.py -v --build_debug_libcc
```
This can take a significant amount of time depending on build machine as it has to
build all of the libchromium source.
Once, the lib is built, create a symlink to the built directory under download
`ln -s vendor/libchromiumcontent/dist/main/shared_library vendor/download/libchromiumcontent/shared_library`
Electron debug builds will use this shared library to link against.
```sh
$ ./script/build.py -c D --libcc
```
This will build debug Electron with debug version of libchromiumcontent.
### Generate xcode project for debugging sources (cannot build code from xcode)
Run the update script with the --xcode argument.
Run `gn gen` with the --ide=xcode argument.
```sh
$ ./script/update.py --xcode
$ gn gen out/Debug --ide=xcode
```
This will generate the electron.ninjs.xcworkspace. You will have to open this workspace
This will generate the electron.ninja.xcworkspace. You will have to open this workspace
to set breakpoints and inspect.
See `gn help gen` for more information on generating IDE projects with GN.
### Debugging and breakpoints
Launch Electron app after build.
