How to Debug/Develop PVR addons in OS X? - dzendian - 2015-04-20
I understand the basic process and I had a working PVR add-on for Frodo, but testing is quite a bear (unless I'm missing something). I want to be able to rapidly iterate on a plugin I'm writing without having to pepper it with debug (XBMC->Log(...)) statements, which may not bear fruit. I'm trying to move from the older Frodo API to the newer Kodi Helix 14.2 API.
Is setting breakpoints even possible with PVR add-on development?
What do you guys use? Eclipse? Xcode? I'm trying to development on a Mac.
Also, I'm having trouble getting kodi-platform to install on my Mac.
I got Kodi built in Xcode, but modifying a plugin and hitting "run" doesn't exactly work with the new changes. Thoughts? Suggestions?

Use -G with cmake to generate an xcode project for the addon.
