<CFData 0x100516c60 [0x7fff71adaea0]>{length = 6, capacity = 6, bytes = 0x0022412b03ad}

Every time I start build my Xcode Project, I get this in the console:

<CFData 0x100516c60 [0x7fff71adaea0]>{length = 6, capacity = 6, bytes = 0x0022412b03ad}

I have no idea, what it means and what it's causing it.

Can someone help me?

Thx!

Edit: I think this method creates it:

I use it to get the active interface's MAC address.

Your print statement is happening on this line using CFShow. Just comment that out :)

if (MACAddressAsCFData) {

     //Comment out the CFShow here
     CFShow(MACAddressAsCFData); // for display purposes only; output goes to stderr
