Xcode Auto Close Debug

Xcode plugin that closes the debug window automatically after the debug session has ended.

In response to this StackOverflow question.

The plugin was developed and tested with Xcode 4.2.1.

Usage

1. Download "Xcode Auto Close Debug"

2. Unzip it.

3. Move XcodeAutoCloseDebug.xcplugin to ~/Library/Application Support/Developer/Shared/Xcode/Plug-ins/

4. Restart Xcode

5. Open menu "Xcode" -> "Preferences" -> "Behaviors" -> "Run Starts".

6. Activate "Show tab" and set the tab name "XcodeAutoCloseDebug" (this exact name is important!)

6. Run the executable and detach the debugger window (drag the tab out of Xcode to create an own window).

7. Stop the executable and see what happens ;-)
