Stop "developer tools access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue" alert

I recently upgraded to 10.7.3, and when I try to debug my iOS project in the simulator for the first time after logging in, I'm prompted with the following two alerts:

Developer Tools Access needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue. Type your password to allow this.

gdb-i386-apple-darwin needs to take control of another process for debugging to continue. Type your password to allow this.

My user is an admin user. I never saw these alerts before. How do I get them to stop?

EDIT

I've verified that I'm a member of the _developer group using id -a.

Solution

  • There's a much simpler solution for this. Try running the following command:

    sudo /usr/sbin/DevToolsSecurity --enable
