cases when getting the clang type:
- need only a forward declaration
- need a clang type that can be used for layout (members and args/return types)
- need a full clang type
This allows us to partially parse the clang types and be as lazy as possible.
The first case is when we just need to declare a type and we will complete it
later. The forward declaration happens only for class/union/structs and enums.
The layout type allows us to resolve the full clang type _except_ if we have
any modifiers on a pointer or reference (both R and L value). In this case
when we are adding members or function args or return types, we only need to
know how the type will be laid out and we can defer completing the pointee
type until we later need it. The last type means we need a full definition for
the clang type.
Did some renaming of some enumerations to get rid of the old "DC" prefix (which
stands for DebugCore which is no longer around).
Modified the clang namespace support to be almost ready to be fed to the
expression parser. I made a new ClangNamespaceDecl class that can carry around
the AST and the namespace decl so we can copy it into the expression AST. I
modified the symbol vendor and symbol file plug-ins to use this new class.

debug information and you evaluated an expression, a crash would occur as a
result of an unchecked pointer.
Added the ability to get the expression path for a ValueObject. For a rectangle
point child "x" the expression path would be something like: "rect.top_left.x".
This will allow GUI and command lines to get ahold of the expression path for
a value object without having to explicitly know about the hierarchy. This
means the ValueObject base class now has a "ValueObject *m_parent;" member.
All ValueObject subclasses now correctly track their lineage and are able
to provide value expression paths as well.
Added a new "--flat" option to the "frame variable" to allow for flat variable
output. An example of the current and new outputs:
(lldb) frame variable
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffe80
pt = {
x = 2
y = 3
}
rect = {
bottom_left = {
x = 1
y = 2
}
top_right = {
x = 3
y = 4
}
}
(lldb) frame variable --flat
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffe80
pt.x = 2
pt.y = 3
rect.bottom_left.x = 1
rect.bottom_left.y = 2
rect.top_right.x = 3
rect.top_right.y = 4
As you can see when there is a lot of hierarchy it can help flatten things out.
Also if you want to use a member in an expression, you can copy the text from
the "--flat" output and not have to piece it together manually. This can help
when you want to use parts of the STL in expressions:
(lldb) frame variable --flat
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffea8
hello_world._M_dataplus._M_p = 0x0000000000000000
(lldb) expr hello_world._M_dataplus._M_p[0] == '\0'

bool ValueObject::GetIsConstant() const;
void ValueObject::SetIsConstant();
This will stop anything from being re-evaluated within the value object so
that constant result value objects can maintain their frozen values without
anything being updated or changed within the value object.
Made it so the ValueObjectConstResult can be constructed with an
lldb_private::Error object to allow for expression results to have errors.
Since ValueObject objects contain error objects, I changed the expression
evaluation in ClangUserExpression from
static Error
ClangUserExpression::Evaluate (ExecutionContext &exe_ctx,
const char *expr_cstr,
lldb::ValueObjectSP &result_valobj_sp);
to:
static lldb::ValueObjectSP
Evaluate (ExecutionContext &exe_ctx, const char *expr_cstr);
Even though expression parsing is borked right now (pending fixes coming from
Sean Callanan), I filled in the implementation for:
SBValue SBFrame::EvaluateExpression (const char *expr);
Modified all expression code to deal with the above changes.

results. The clang opaque type for the expression result will be added to the
Target's ASTContext, and the bytes will be stored in a DataBuffer inside
the new object. The class is named: ValueObjectConstResult
Now after an expression is evaluated, we can get a ValueObjectSP back that
contains a ValueObjectConstResult object.
Relocated the value object dumping code into a static function within
the ValueObject class instead of being in the CommandObjectFrame.cpp file
which is what contained the code to dump variables ("frame variables").
