Sub-project Status Update
|
||||
============================================
|
||||
|
||||
In addition to the core LLVM 3.3 distribution of production-quality compiler
|
||||
infrastructure, the LLVM project includes sub-projects that use the LLVM core
|
||||
and share the same distribution license. This section provides updates on
|
||||
these sub-projects.

LLDB: Low Level Debugger
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
`LLDB <http://lldb.llvm.org/>`_ is a ground-up implementation of a command-line
|
||||
debugger, as well as a debugger API that can be used from scripts and other
|
||||
applications. LLDB uses the following components of the LLVM core distribution
|
||||
to support the latest language features and target support:
|
||||
|
||||
- the Clang parser for high-quality parsing of C, C++ and Objective C
|
||||
- the LLVM disassembler
|
||||
- the LLVM JIT compiler (MCJIT) for expression evaluation
|
||||
|
||||
The `3.3 release <http://llvm.org/apt/>`_ has the following notable changes.
|
||||
|
||||
Linux Features:
|
||||
|
||||
- Support for watchpoints
|
||||
- vim integration for lldb commands and program status using a `vim plug-in <http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/lldb/trunk/utils/vim-lldb/README>`_
|
||||
- Improved register support including vector registers
|
||||
- Builds with cmake/ninja/auto-tools/clang 3.3/gcc 4.6
|
||||
|
||||
Linux Improvements:
|
||||
|
||||
- Debugging multi-threaded programs
|
||||
- Debugging i386 programs
|
||||
- Process list, attach and fork
|
||||
- Expression evaluation
