I'm also fond of simply hovering over the variable and tapping on the popup menu indicator and then clicking "Print Description". Just depends on whether I'm already in the console or not.

        - When I put 10 NSNumber in a NSMutableArray and look at it in the
debugger (displaying the content of the array with the little
arrow), no way to display the value. The formatter seems ignored or
invalid.


Use the gdb command line:

        po myArray

This will call -description on the array and print its contents. It
works with any Cococa collection class. If you only want to see one
object, do:

        po [myArray objectAtIndex: 0]
