Detecting if iOS app is run in debugger

Question

I set up my application to either send debugging output to console or a log file. Now, I\'d like to decide with in the code whether

• it is run in the debugger

Answer 1

Why not using conditional compilation block in Swift?

     #if DEBUG
        // Do something.
     #endif

Any objection?

You can define if you want a runtime constant

#if DEBUG
public let IS_RUNNING_IN_DEBUGGER: Bool = true
#else
public let IS_RUNNING_IN_DEBUGGER: Bool = false
#endif

The same approach can be used in Objc & more.
