I have just migrated to MAC OS, and am trying to debug a mex file for the first time. I'm using MATLAB R2015b and Xcode 7.0.1 on OS X 10.11 (El Capitan). I've followed the instructions here:
When I hit Command-R I see "Running StartMATLAB : debug" in the status bar at the top of the Xcode window. However, shortly afterwards that changes to "Finished StartMATLAB : debug", and MATLAB never actually appears.
Another thing I've tried is attaching Xcode to the MATLAB process. If I have the JVM running, it continuously hits breakpoints in assemble code, even before I call my code. If I run with the -nojvm option and attach the debugger, it doesn't stop on my breakpoints.
I should add that I'm compiling the mex file from within MATLAB. Perhaps Xcode is not watching the mex library that gets built, unlike if I do the same thing in Visual Studio.
Incidentally, I use the fix described here to use Xcode 7 and El Capitan.
Any help much appreciated.

I have been able to hit a breakpoint in my mex code, within the Xcode IDE, by doing the following steps:
  1. Building the mex file from within Xcode
  2. Starting MATLAB in a terminal window by calling "matlab -nojvm"
  3. Attaching Xcode to the MATLAB process
  4. Putting a breakpoint in my mex function
  5. Calling my mex function from MATLAB
This isn't ideal because I had to compile the mex library/application from within Xcode, rather than the normal way I do it, which is just on the MATLAB command line with my own special script. I think there must be a command line option for the compiler which I'm not using in my script, but the Xcode project is. I use only the -g option. The Xcode project uses:

I build the mex file as a command line project in Xcode, using the following custom build settings:
I then copy the mex file to where it should be with a build phase copy:
