What's the difference between “p” and “po” in Xcode's LLDB debugger?

Question

Example. I write the following string in my old project and a new, clear one:

UIInterfaceOrientation k = [UIApplication sharedApplication].statusBarOrientation;
         


        

Answer 1

po tries to treat what you want to print, as an object. In many cases it is similar to p, but there are cases where the difference emerges.

The simplest way to see the difference: compare the output of p 0 and po 0.

(lldb) p 0
  (int) $26 = 0
(lldb) po 0
