Debugging iOS-Application

I'm just starting with LiveCode :D . In a "normal" (mac or Windows) application I can use the debugger from Livecode.
How is it possible to use the Debugger for a iOS-Application, to scan e.g. the "touchStart"-event ?

Thanks

The release notes states that the debugging function for mobile devices is limited. You can use the put command to output values. The release notes says that the put command:
Will write the string out to the standard error stream. These messages will be visible in Console.app when running in the simulator, and in the Console tab of the Xcode Organizer for a given target device while it is connected to the host computer.

HI mjaspaert,

what I do is: I make a field on the card and in a handler

Code: Select all

on touchstart pID
   put "touchStart " & pId && the milliseconds into field "myDebugField"
   -- rest of code here
end touchstart
Kind regards

Bernd
