This option evaluates an expression and, if the result is of pointer type, treats it as if it was an array of that many elements and displays such elements
This has a couple subtle points but is mostly as straightforward as it sounds
Add a parray N <expr> alias for this new mode
Also, extend the --object-description mode to do the moral equivalent of the above but display each element in --object-description mode
Add a poarray N <expr> alias for this

Teach LLDB that different shells have different characters they are sensitive to, and use that knowledge to do shell-aware escaping
This helps solve a class of problems on OS X where LLDB would try to launch via sh, and run into problems if the command line being passed to the inferior contained such special markers (hint: the shell would error out and we'd fail to launch)
This makes those launch scenarios work transparently via shell expansion
Slightly improve the error message when this kind of failure occurs to at least suggest that the user try going through 'process launch' directly

It would be nice to have a longer-term plan for how to handle help for regular expression commands, since their syntax is highly irregular. I can see a few options (*), but for now this is a reasonable stop-gag measure for the most blatant regression.
(*) the simplest is, of course, to detect a regex command and inherit the syntax for any aliases thereof; it would be nice if this also didn't show the underlying regex command name when the alias is used
llvm-svn: 263523
This cleans things up such CommandAlias essentially can work as its own object; the aliases still live in a separate map, but are now just full-fledged CommandObjectSPs
This patch also cleans up help generation for aliases, allows aliases to vend their own help, and adds a tweak such that "dash-dash aliases", such as po, don't show the list of options for their underlying command, since those can't be provided anyway
I plan to fix up a few more things here, and then add a test case and proclaim victory

Turns out that most of the code that runs expressions (e.g. the ObjC runtime grubber) on
behalf of the expression parser was using the currently selected thread. But sometimes,
e.g. when we are evaluating breakpoint conditions/commands, we don't select the thread
we're running on, we instead set the context for the interpreter, and explicitly pass
that to other callers. That wasn't getting communicated to these utility expressions, so
they would run on some other thread instead, and that could cause a variety of subtle and
hard to reproduce problems.
I also went through the commands and cleaned up the use of GetSelectedThread. All those
uses should have been trying the thread in the m_exe_ctx belonging to the command object
first. It would actually have been pretty hard to get misbehavior in these cases, but for
correctness sake it is good to make this usage consistent.

The next step is to actually turn CommandAlias into a full-blown CommandObject citizen.
This is tricky given the current architecture of the CommandInterpreter but I think I have found a reasonable path forward.
The current plan is to make class CommandAlias : public CommandObject, and have all the several GetCommand calls not actually traverse through the alias to the underlying command object
The only times that an alias will be traversed are:
a) execution; when time comes to run an alias, I will just grab the underlying command and options, and make the interpreter execute that according to its current algorithm
b) subcommand traversal; if one has an alias to a multiword command, grabbing a subcommand will see through to the subcommand
Other operations, e.g. command listing, command names, command helps, ..., will all use the alias directly. This will, in turn, lead to the removal of the separate alias dictionary, and just mix user commands and aliases in one map
llvm-svn: 262986
- move alias help generation to CommandAlias, out of CommandInterpreter
- make alias creation use argument strings instead of OptionArgVectorSP; the former is a more reasonable currency than the latter
- remove m_is_alias from CommandObject, it wasn't actually being used
llvm-svn: 262912
Eventually, there will be more things that CommandAlias contains, and I don't want accessors for each of them on the CommandIntepreter
Eventually, we also won't pass around copies of CommandAlias, but that's for a later patch
llvm-svn: 262909
Right now, obviously, this is just the pair of (CommandObjectSP,OptionArgVectorSP), so NFC
This is step one of a larger - and tricky - refactoring which will turn command aliases into interesting objects instead of passive storage that the command interpreter does smart things to
This refactoring, in turn, will allow us to do interesting things with aliases, such as intelligent and customizable help

to each other. This should remove some infrequent teardown crashes when the
listener is not the debugger's listener.
Processes now need to take a ListenerSP, not a Listener&.
This required changing over the Process plugin class constructors to take a ListenerSP, instead
of a Listener&. Other than that there should be no functional change.

working directory by default -- a typical security problem that we
need to be more conservative about.
It adds a new target setting, target.load-cwd-lldbinit which may
be true (always read $cwd/.lldbinit), false (never read $cwd/.lldbinit)
or warn (warn if there is a $cwd/.lldbinit and don't read it). The
default is set to warn. If this is met with unhappiness, we can look
at changing the default to true (to match current behavior) on a
different platform.
This does not affect reading of ~/.lldbinit - that will still be read,
as before. If you run lldb in your home directory, it will not warn
about the presence of a .lldbinit file there.
I had to add two SB API - SBHostOS::GetUserHomeDirectory and
SBFileSpec::AppendPathComponent - for the lldb driver code to be
able to get the home directory path in an OS neutral manner.
The warning text is
There is a .lldbinit file in the current directory which is not being read.
To silence this warning without sourcing in the local .lldbinit,
add the following to the lldbinit file in your home directory:
settings set target.load-cwd-lldbinit false
To allow lldb to source .lldbinit files in the current working directory,
set the value of this variable to true. Only do so if you understand and
accept the security risk.

the xcode project file to catch switch statements that have a
case that falls through unintentionally.
Define LLVM_FALLTHROUGH to indicate instances where a case has code
and intends to fall through. This should be in llvm/Support/Compiler.h;
Peter Collingbourne originally checked in there (r237766), then
reverted (r237941) because he didn't have time to mark up all the
'case' statements that were intended to fall through. I put together
a patch to get this back in llvm http://reviews.llvm.org/D17063 but
it hasn't been approved in the past week. I added a new
lldb-private-defines.h to hold the definition for now.
Every place in lldb where there is a comment that the fall-through
is intentional, I added LLVM_FALLTHROUGH to silence the warning.
I haven't tried to identify whether the fallthrough is a bug or
not in the other places.
I haven't tried to add this to the cmake option build flags.
This warning will only work for clang.
This build cleanly (with some new warnings) on macosx with clang
under xcodebuild, but if this causes problems for people on other
configurations, I'll back it out.

Batch mode is supposed to stop execution and return control to the user when an
exceptional stop occurs (crash, signal or instrumentation). But attach always stops
with a SIGSTOP on OSX (maybe on Linux too?) which would short circuit the rest of the
commands given.
This change allows a command result object to indicate that it expected to leave the
process stopped with an exceptional stop reason, and it is okay for batch mode to keep going.

One example where this occurs in practice is starting the Swift REPL and typing ":command history" since REPL commands aren't stored in the LLDB command prompt history.
llvm-svn: 256888
A REPL takes over the command line and typically treats input as source code.
REPLs can also do code completion. The REPL class allows its subclasses to
implement the language-specific functionality without having to know about the
IOHandler-specific internals.
Also added a PluginManager-based way of getting to a REPL given a language and
a target.
Also brought in some utility code and expression options that are useful for
REPLs, such as line offsets for expressions, ANSI terminal coloring of errors,
and a few IOHandler convenience functions.

Previously embedded interpreters were handled as ad-hoc source
files compiled into source/Interpreter. This made it hard to
disable a specific interpreter, or to add support for other
interpreters and allow the developer to choose which interpreter(s)
were enabled for a particular build.
This patch converts script interpreters over to a plugin-based system.
Script interpreters now live in source/Plugins/ScriptInterpreter, and
the canonical LLDB interpreter, ScriptInterpreterPython, is moved there
as well.
Any new code interfacing with the Python C API must live in this location
from here on out. Additionally, generic code should never need to
reference or make assumptions about the presence of a specific interpreter
going forward.
