Added the ability for OptionValueString objects to take flags. The only flag is currently for parsing escape sequences. Not the prompt string can have escape characters translate which will allow colors in the prompt.
Added functions to Args that will parse the escape sequences in a string, and also re-encode the escape sequences for display. This was looted from other parts of LLDB (the Debugger::FormatString() function).

tread on the m_embedded_thread_input_reader_sp singleton maintained by the script interpreter.
Furthermore, use two additional slots under the script interpreter to store the PseudoTerminal and
the InputReaderSP pertaining to the embedded python interpreter -- resulted from the
ScriptInterpreterPython::ExecuteInterpreterLoop() call -- to facilitate separation from what is being
used by the PythonInputReaderManager instances.

We are introducing a new Logger class on the Python side. This has the same purpose, but is unrelated, to the C++ logging facility
The Pythonic logging can be enabled by using the following scripting commands:
(lldb) script Logger._lldb_formatters_debug_level = {0,1,2,...}
0 = no logging
1 = do log
2 = flush after logging each line - slower but safer
3 or more = each time a Logger is constructed, log the function that has created it
more log levels may be added, each one being more log-active than the previous
by default, the log output will come out on your screen, to direct it to a file:
(lldb) script Logger._lldb_formatters_debug_filename = 'filename'
that will make the output go to the file - set to None to disable the file output and get screen logging back
Logging has been enabled for the C++ STL formatters and for Cocoa class NSData - more logging will follow
synthetic children providers for classes list and map (both libstdcpp and libcxx) now have internal capping for safety reasons
this will fix crashers where a malformed list or map would not ever meet our termination conditions
to set the cap to a different value:
(lldb) script {gnu_libstdcpp|libcxx}.{map|list}_capping_size = new_cap (by default, it is 255)
you can optionally disable the loop detection algorithm for lists
(lldb) script {gnu_libstdcpp|libcxx}.list_uses_loop_detector = False
llvm-svn: 153676
A new setting enable-synthetic-value is provided on the target to disable this behavior.
There also is a new GetNonSyntheticValue() API call on SBValue to go back from synthetic to non-synthetic. There is no call to go from non-synthetic to synthetic.
The test suite has been changed accordingly.
Fallout from changes to type searching: an hack has to be played to make it possible to use maps that contain std::string due to the special name replacement operated by clang
Fixing a test case that was using libstdcpp instead of libc++ - caught as a consequence of said changes to type searching
llvm-svn: 153495
Changes to synthetic children:
- the update(self): function can now (optionally) return a value - if it returns boolean value True, ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not clear its caches across stop-points
this should allow better performance for Python-based synthetic children when one can be sure that the child ValueObjects have not changed
- making a difference between a synthetic VO and a VO with a synthetic value: now a ValueObjectSyntheticFilter will not return itself as its own synthetic value, but will (correctly)
claim to itself be synthetic
- cleared up the internal synthetic children architecture to make a more consistent use of pointers and references instead of shared pointers when possible
- major cleanup of unnecessary #include, data and functions in ValueObjectSyntheticFilter itself
- removed the SyntheticValueType enum and replaced it with a plain boolean (to which it was equivalent in the first place)
Some clean ups to the summary generation code
Centralized the code that clears out user-visible strings and data in ValueObject
More efficient summaries for libc++ containers
llvm-svn: 153061
std::string has a summary provider
std::vector std::list and std::map have both a summary and a synthetic children provider
Given the usage of a custom namespace (std::__1::classname) for the implementation of libc++, we keep both libstdcpp and libc++ formatters enabled at the same time since that raises no conflicts and enabled for seamless transition between the two
The formatters for libc++ reside in a libcxx category, and are loaded from libcxx.py (to be found in examples/synthetic)
The formatters-stl test cases have been divided to be separate for libcxx and libstdcpp. This separation is necessary because
(a) we need different compiler flags for libc++ than for libstdcpp
(b) libc++ inlines a lot more than libstdcpp and some code changes were required to accommodate this difference
llvm-svn: 152570
The Locker should only perform acquire/free lock operation, but no enter/leave session
at all. Also added sanity checks for items passed to the PyDict_SetItemString() calls.
llvm-svn: 152337
Several places in the ScriptInterpreter interface used StringList objects where an std::string would suffice - Fixed
Refactoring calls that generated special-purposes functions in the Python interpreter to use helper functions instead of duplicating blobs of code
llvm-svn: 152164
fixed a few potential NULL-pointer derefs in ValueObject
we have a way to provide docstrings for properties we add to the SWIG layer - a few of these properties have a docstring already, more will come in future commits
added a new bunch of properties to SBData to make it more natural and Python-like to access the data they contain
llvm-svn: 151962
(b) fixes and improvements to the formatters for NSDate and NSString
(c) adding an introspection formatter for NSCountedSet
(d) making the Objective-C formatters test cases pass on both 64 and 32 bit
one of the test cases is marked as expected failure on i386 - support needs to be added to the LLDB core for it to pass
llvm-svn: 151826
a) adds a Python summary provider for NSDate
b) changes the initialization for ScriptInterpreter so that we are not passing a bulk of Python-specific function pointers around
c) provides a new ScriptInterpreterObject class that allows for ref-count safe wrapping of scripting objects on the C++ side
d) contains much needed performance improvements:
1) the pointer to the Python function generating a scripted summary is now cached instead of looked up every time
2) redundant memory reads in the Python ObjC runtime wrapper are eliminated
3) summaries now use the m_summary_str in ValueObject to store their data instead of passing around ( == copying) an std::string object
e) contains other minor fixes, such as adding descriptive error messages for some cases of summary generation failure
llvm-svn: 151703
Attached is a small python fix to save the current stout and std err when starting a python session, then diverting them (as it was before), and restoring the previous values afterwards. Otherwise, a python script could suddenly find itself without output.
llvm-svn: 151693
The formatter for NSString is an improved version of the one previously shipped as an example, the others are new in design and implementation.
A more robust and OO-compliant Objective-C runtime wrapper is provided for runtime versions 1 and 2 on 32 and 64 bit.
The formatters are contained in a category named "AppKit", which is not enabled at startup.

objects for the backlink to the lldb_private::Process. The issues we were
running into before was someone was holding onto a shared pointer to a
lldb_private::Thread for too long, and the lldb_private::Process parent object
would get destroyed and the lldb_private::Thread had a "Process &m_process"
member which would just treat whatever memory that used to be a Process as a
valid Process. This was mostly happening for lldb_private::StackFrame objects
that had a member like "Thread &m_thread". So this completes the internal
strong/weak changes.
Documented the ExecutionContext and ExecutionContextRef classes so that our
LLDB developers can understand when and where to use ExecutionContext and
ExecutionContextRef objects.
llvm-svn: 151009
internals. The first part of this is to use a new class:
lldb_private::ExecutionContextRef
This class holds onto weak pointers to the target, process, thread and frame
and it also contains the thread ID and frame Stack ID in case the thread and
frame objects go away and come back as new objects that represent the same
logical thread/frame.
ExecutionContextRef objcets have accessors to access shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame which might return NULL if the backing
object is no longer available. This allows for references to persistent program
state without needing to hold a shared pointer to each object and potentially
keeping that object around for longer than it needs to be.
You can also "Lock" and ExecutionContextRef (which contains weak pointers)
object into an ExecutionContext (which contains strong, or shared pointers)
with code like
ExecutionContext exe_ctx (my_obj->GetExectionContextRef().Lock());
llvm-svn: 150801
New public API for handling formatters: creating, deleting, modifying categories, and formatters, and managing type/formatter association.
This provides SB classes for each of the main object types involved in providing formatter support:
SBTypeCategory
SBTypeFilter
SBTypeFormat
SBTypeSummary
SBTypeSynthetic
plus, an SBTypeNameSpecifier class that is used on the public API layer to abstract the notion that formatters can be applied to plain type-names as well as to regular expressions
For naming consistency, this patch also renames a lot of formatters-related classes.
Plus, the changes in how flags are handled that started with summaries is now extended to other classes as well. A new enum (lldb::eTypeOption) is meant to support this on the public side.
The patch also adds several new calls to the formatter infrastructure that are used to implement by-index accessing and several other design changes required to accommodate the new API layer.
An architectural change is introduced in that backing objects for formatters now become writable. On the public API layer, CoW is implemented to prevent unwanted propagation of changes.
Lastly, there are some modifications in how the "default" category is constructed and managed in relation to other categories.
llvm-svn: 150558
uint32_t
SBType::GetNumberOfTemplateArguments ();
lldb::SBType
SBType::GetTemplateArgumentType (uint32_t idx);
lldb::TemplateArgumentKind
SBType::GetTemplateArgumentKind (uint32_t idx);
Some lldb::TemplateArgumentKind values don't have a corresponding SBType
that will be returned from SBType::GetTemplateArgumentType(). This will
help our data formatters do their job by being able to find out the
type of template params and do smart things with those.
llvm-svn: 149658
You can now access a frame in a thread using:
lldb.SBThread.frame[int] -> lldb.SBFrame object for a frame in a thread
Where "int" is an integer index. You can also access a list object with all of
the frames using:
lldb.SBThread.frames => list() of lldb.SBFrame objects
All SB objects that give out SBAddress objects have properties named "addr"
lldb.SBInstructionList now has the following convenience accessors for len() and
instruction access using an index:
insts = lldb.frame.function.instructions
for idx in range(len(insts)):
print insts[idx]
Instruction lists can also lookup an isntruction using a lldb.SBAddress as the key:
pc_inst = lldb.frame.function.instructions[lldb.frame.addr]
lldb.SBProcess now exposes:
lldb.SBProcess.is_alive => BOOL Check if a process is exists and is alive
lldb.SBProcess.is_running => BOOL check if a process is running (or stepping):
lldb.SBProcess.is_running => BOOL check if a process is currently stopped or crashed:
lldb.SBProcess.thread[int] => lldb.SBThreads for a given "int" zero based index
lldb.SBProcess.threads => list() containing all lldb.SBThread objects in a process
SBInstruction now exposes:
lldb.SBInstruction.mnemonic => python string for instruction mnemonic
lldb.SBInstruction.operands => python string for instruction operands
lldb.SBInstruction.command => python string for instruction comment
SBModule now exposes:
lldb.SBModule.uuid => uuid.UUID(), an UUID object from the "uuid" python module
lldb.SBModule.symbol[int] => lldb.Symbol, lookup symbol by zero based index
lldb.SBModule.symbol[str] => list() of lldb.Symbol objects that match "str"
lldb.SBModule.symbol[re] => list() of lldb.Symbol objecxts that match the regex
lldb.SBModule.symbols => list() of all symbols in a module
SBAddress objects can now access the current load address with the "lldb.SBAddress.load_addr"
property. The current "lldb.target" will be used to try and resolve the load address.
Load addresses can also be set using this accessor:
addr = lldb.SBAddress()
addd.load_addr = 0x123023
Then you can check the section and offset to see if the address got resolved.
SBTarget now exposes:
lldb.SBTarget.module[int] => lldb.SBModule from zero based module index
lldb.SBTarget.module[str] => lldb.SBModule by basename or fullpath or uuid string
lldb.SBTarget.module[uuid.UUID()] => lldb.SBModule whose UUID matches
lldb.SBTarget.module[re] => list() of lldb.SBModule objects that match the regex
lldb.SBTarget.modules => list() of all lldb.SBModule objects in the target
SBSymbol now exposes:
lldb.SBSymbol.name => python string for demangled symbol name
lldb.SBSymbol.mangled => python string for mangled symbol name or None if there is none
lldb.SBSymbol.type => lldb.eSymbolType enum value
lldb.SBSymbol.addr => SBAddress object that represents the start address for this symbol (if there is one)
lldb.SBSymbol.end_addr => SBAddress for the end address of the symbol (if there is one)
lldb.SBSymbol.prologue_size => pythin int containing The size of the prologue in bytes
lldb.SBSymbol.instructions => SBInstructionList containing all instructions for this symbol
SBFunction now also has these new properties in addition to what is already has:
lldb.SBFunction.addr => SBAddress object that represents the start address for this function
lldb.SBFunction.end_addr => SBAddress for the end address of the function
lldb.SBFunction.instructions => SBInstructionList containing all instructions for this function
SBFrame now exposes the SBAddress for the frame:
lldb.SBFrame.addr => SBAddress which is the section offset address for the current frame PC
These are all in addition to what was already added. Documentation and website
updates coming soon.

due to RTTI worries since llvm and clang don't use RTTI, but I was able to
switch back with no issues as far as I can tell. Once the RTTI issue wasn't
an issue, we were looking for a way to properly track weak pointers to objects
to solve some of the threading issues we have been running into which naturally
led us back to std::tr1::weak_ptr. We also wanted the ability to make a shared
pointer from just a pointer, which is also easily solved using the
std::tr1::enable_shared_from_this class.
The main reason for this move back is so we can start properly having weak
references to objects. Currently a lldb_private::Thread class has a refrence
to its parent lldb_private::Process. This doesn't work well when we now hand
out a SBThread object that contains a shared pointer to a lldb_private::Thread
as this SBThread can be held onto by external clients and if they end up
using one of these objects we can easily crash.
So the next task is to start adopting std::tr1::weak_ptr where ever it makes
sense which we can do with lldb_private::Debugger, lldb_private::Target,
lldb_private::Process, lldb_private::Thread, lldb_private::StackFrame, and
many more objects now that they are no longer using intrusive ref counted
pointer objects (you can't do std::tr1::weak_ptr functionality with intrusive
pointers).
llvm-svn: 149207
All of the commands now get globbed into a single line.
lldb.target, lldb.process, lldb.thread and lldb.frame now get initialized with
empty SBTarget, SBProcess, SBThread and SBFrame objects when they don't contain
anything.

Remove a pseudo terminal master open and slave file descriptor that was being
used for pythong stdin. It was not hooked up correctly and was causing file
descriptor leaks.

a) adds a new --synchronicity (-s) setting for "command script add" that allows the user to decide if scripted commands should run synchronously or asynchronously (which can make a difference in how events are handled)
b) clears up several error messages
c) adds a new --allow-reload (-r) setting for "command script import" that allows the user to reload a module even if it has already been imported before
d) allows filename completion for "command script import" (much like what happens for "target create")
e) prevents "command script add" from replacing built-in commands with scripted commands
f) changes AddUserCommand() to take an std::string instead of a const char* (for performance reasons)
plus, it fixes an issue in "type summary add" command handling which caused several test suite errors

- If you download and build the sources in the Xcode project, x86_64 builds
by default using the "llvm.zip" checkpointed LLVM.
- If you delete the "lldb/llvm.zip" and the "lldb/llvm" folder, and build the
Xcode project will download the right LLVM sources and build them from
scratch
- If you have a "lldb/llvm" folder already that contains a "lldb/llvm/lib"
directory, we will use the sources you have placed in the LLDB directory.
Python can now be disabled for platforms that don't support it.
Changed the way the libllvmclang.a files get used. They now all get built into
arch specific directories and never get merged into universal binaries as this
was causing issues where you would have to go and delete the file if you wanted
to build an extra architecture slice.

process IDs, and thread IDs, but was mainly needed for for the UserID's for
Types so that DWARF with debug map can work flawlessly. With DWARF in .o files
the type ID was the DIE offset in the DWARF for the .o file which is not
unique across all .o files, so now the SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class will
make the .o file index part (the high 32 bits) of the unique type identifier
so it can uniquely identify the types.
llvm-svn: 142534
shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,
references, and shared pointers.
