Good to know it has been done elsewhere.
Can you recall any ways in which it was unreliable? How did you use it in
XCode?
In VS, you break/pause somewhere, make some code changes, and then when you
press F10 (step), or F5 (continue), it takes a few seconds (building), and
then it just continues with the new code. Pretty much seamless.
