Answer 1

What you are looking at is a stack trace. It shows all function and method calls that your application made in a specific thread. Up to the point where it crashed.

The first line ('distance' 0) is the most recent location. So this is the place where the application most likely crashed.

The last line ('distance' 25) is the start of the application.

The libobjc.A.dylib is the place where the application crashed. This can show libraries (libobjc.A.dylib) , frameworks (UIKit) and your application (iPad4HB).

The hexadecimal number (0x00007dd2) is the memory location of that specific function or method.

The next column shows the actual function or method name. Where prepareForMethodLookup is a plain C function while -[NSObject performSelector:withObject:] is a method.

The '+ 10' is an indication of where in the function or method the call to the next method or function was made. It is an offset into the compiled code of the function, so this number is mostly meaningless.

However, if you kept your .dSYM file, then you can convert the number to a real line number in a specific file.
