This article does a great job explaining the several not really documented steps of finding memory leaks using XCode.<p>I do wish the XCode developers would have implemented a more intuitive UI to do the same - e.g. taking inspiration from Chrome Developer Tools, or Visual Studio.<p>&lt;rant&gt;
Actually, I would just be happy if XCode had the debugging features that Visual Studio 2005 (10 years ago) had. Like inspecting variables values with mouse over on breakpoints. Or when right clicking &quot;refactor&quot; in XCode on a method name, being able to refactor Swift code. 1 year after the release of Swift the error dialog &quot;XCode can only refactor Objective C code&quot; appears - so much for supporting the Apple&#x27;s own language.
&lt;&#x2F;rant&gt;<p>Anyway, article bookmarked - because even after reading this, there&#x27;s no way I would remember all the steps needed to debug those memory leaks!
