XCode - See console output after app exit, when running multiple app instances

Question

When I run two apps from XCode debugger, I can see their own NSLog into the console. But when one app exist with an exit call, it is killed and I can't see the console log anymore. How may I do to be able to see it.

In other words, i'm debugging the app, and when something bad happens, I have put a message in the log followed by an exit. I would want to see the place where that happened.

If you replace your exit call with a

raise(SIGINT);

the execution of the program will be paused if you're running with a debugger attached. If you're running without a debugger (i.e. in production), the app will be killed.
