Seems I can call and debug Mac API calls without debugger barfing -
whattodo?

n Lazarus 1.6.4 running in debugger macOS Sierra 10.12.4

With the underneath code (or anything calling any Mac API) I am
getting

Quote"The debugger encountered and error when trying to run/step the
application. Cannot find bounds of current function"

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i procedure
myTest;var  TestStrUTF8: UTF8String;  TmpStrPr_CSS: ConstCStringPtr; 
TmpCFStrRef: CFStringRef;  TmpStrPtr: Pointer;begin  TestStrUTF8 :=
'http://example.com';  TmpStrPtr := Pointer(TestStrUTF8) 
TmpStrPtr_CSS := ConstCStringPtr(TmpStrPtr);  TmpCFStrRef :=
CStringCreateWithCString(nil, TmpStrPtr_CSS, kCFStringEncodinguTF8);
// Note1: we are only using ASCII, Note2: We have tried
KCFStringEncodingWindowsLatin1 with same problem   // jumps out of
routine - and shows debugger dialog "Cannot find bounds of current
function" here   showmessage('never reaches, crashes first');end; 

I do not otherwise have problems debugging.I am running above code in
main thread.Problem seems to be the same for all Mac API calls - tried
multiple within that "area"

Do you guys think the code will run correctly in release build? If so
I guess I can try build a test case and "showmessage" debug it?

No luck trying version 8.0 of GDB...

Can anyone see/try if here is anything wrong with my code?

And if you can get it working, what settings are you using?

Could it be anything o do with SIP/address relocation?
