ios - How to change default type for "View Value as" in Xcode Debugger -

when enter breakpoint in xcode can see variables view in debugger area.

since uint32 type working represents unicode values, change display value decimal hexadecimal or unicode type. can right-clicking , selecting view value as.

which gives

but find myself having on , over.

is there way change default display type?

i thought had seen before, turns out a similar question android studio. looked in preferences couldn't see there either.

the "type format add" command want. do:

(lldb) type format add 

for more details. change default format variable of given type. can either enter these @ lldb prompt or in ~/.lldbinit. 1 caveat, xcode locals view doesn't update when formatters change, have "step" format change register.

another trick can use if have mix of uint32's use purpose , others use uint32's (and want see default format), can create typealias uint32, , use when intend unicode usage. can put formatter on typealias rather on uint32. way formatting want , not in other uses.

another little trick can use add special type formats category when make them (using -w option.) allows use "type category enable/disable" turn special formatting on , off without having remember "type format add" command. if this, note categories created "disabled", have enable category before see effects.
