The variable.rst documentation says:
```
If it returns a value, and that value is True, LLDB will be allowed to cache the children and the children count it previously obtained, and will not return to the provider class to ask. If nothing, None, or anything other than True is returned, LLDB will discard the cached information and ask. Regardless, whenever necessary LLDB will call update.
```
However, several update methods in gnu_libstdcpp.py were returning True,
which made lldb unaware of any changes in the corresponding objects.
This problem was visible by lldb-vscode in the following way:
- If a breakpoint is hit and there's a vector with the contents {1, 2},
it'll be displayed correctly.
- Then the user steps and the next stop contains the vector modified.
The program changed it to {1, 2, 3}
- frame var then displays {1, 2} incorrectly, due to the caching caused
by the update method
It's worth mentioning that none of libcxx.py'd update methods return True. Same for LibCxxVector.cpp, which returns false.
Added a very simple test that fails without this fix.

This patch removes the comments grouping header includes. They were
added after running IWYU over the LLDB codebase. However they add little
value, are often outdates and burdensome to maintain.

Summary:
A couple of members of these data structures have been renamed in recent
months. This makes sure they still work with the latest libc++ version.

*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style. This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:
Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort. Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit. The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):
find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;
The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.
Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit. There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit. YMMV.

This patch fixes a bunch of issues that show up on big-endian systems:
- The gnu_libstdcpp.py script doesn't follow the way libstdc++ encodes
bit vectors: it should identify the enclosing *word* and then access
the appropriate bit within that word. Instead, the script simply
operates on bytes. This gives the same result on little-endian
systems, but not on big-endian.
- lldb_private::formatters::WCharSummaryProvider always assumes wchar_t
is UTF16, even though it could also be UTF8 or UTF32. This is mostly
not an issue on little-endian systems, but immediately fails on BE.
Fixed by checking the size of wchar_t like WCharStringSummaryProvider
already does.
- ClangASTContext::GetChildCompilerTypeAtIndex uses uint32_t to access
the virtual base offset stored in the vtable, even though the size
of this field matches the target pointer size according to the C++
ABI. Again, this is mostly not visible on LE, but fails on BE.
- Process::ReadStringFromMemory uses strncmp to search for a terminator
consisting of multiple zero bytes. This doesn't work since strncmp
will stop already at the first zero byte. Use memcmp instead.

Old-style syntax: `except Exception, e:`
New-style syntax: `except Exception as e:`
These two statements are identical, except that the former has
been deprecated for may versions, and was removed in Python 3.
This converts everything to use the new syntax (which also works
in Python 2). I had to convert unittest2 as well. What we really
need to do is just delete unittest2, and use unittest instead since
it is a standard module that ships with every Python distribution.
But this is the path of least resistance for now, although at
some point we will really need to do it.

Even though these are under examples/, they actually get loaded
when LLDB starts up during initialization of ScriptInterpreterPython.
There's obviously some kind of layering issue here (and comments
in the code even point to that as well), but for now just make them
py3 compatible.

The previous implementation only read out the first element of the
underlying storage array. Because of it only the first 32 (on x86) or
the first 64 (on x86_64) element was displayed.

Summary:
GCC does not emit some DWARF required for the simplified formatter
to work. A workaround for it has been incorporated in the formatter.
The corresponding test TestDataFormatterStdMap has also been enabled
for GCC.

If you try to access any child > 0 without having touched child 0, LLDB won't be able to reconstruct type information from the debug info.
Previously, we would fail.
Now, we simply go fetch child 0 and then come back.

Making MightHaveChildren() always return true regardless for our own data formatters
This is meant to optimize performance for common most-often-not-empty container classes
llvm-svn: 169759
Adding the new has_children (or MightHaveChildren() in C++) for the existing synthetic children providers
In a few cases, the new call is going to be much more efficient than the previous num_children > 0 check
When the optimization was marginal (e.g. std::vector<>), the choice was to use num_children in order to keep
implementation details in one function instead of duplicating code
Next step is to provide test cases

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

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
This solves an issue where a ValueObject was getting a wrong children count (usually, a huge value) and trying to resize the vector of children to fit that many ValueObject*
Added a loop detection algorithm to the synthetic children provider for std::list
Added a few more checks to the synthetic children provider for std::vector
Both std::list and std::vector's synthetic children providers now cache the count of children instead of recomputing it every time
std::map has a field that stores the count, so there is little need to cache it on our side
llvm-svn: 152371
- all instances of "vobj" have been renamed to "valobj"
- class Debugger::Formatting has been renamed to DataVisualization (defined in FormatManager.h/cpp)
The interface to this class has not changed
- FormatCategory now uses ConstString's as keys to the navigators instead of repeatedly casting
from ConstString to const char* and back all the time
Next step is making the same happen for categories themselves
- category gnu-libstdc++ is defined in the constructor for a FormatManager
The source code for it is defined in gnu_libstdcpp.py, drawn from examples/synthetic at compile time
All references to previous 'osxcpp' name have been removed from both code and file names
Functional changes:
- the name of the option to use a summary string for 'type summary add' has changed from the previous --format-string
to the new --summary-string. It is expected that the short option will change from -f to -s, and -s for --python-script
will become -o
llvm-svn: 137886
new --raw-output (-R) option to frame variable prevents using summaries and synthetic children
other future formatting enhancements will be excluded by using the -R option
test case enhanced to check that -R works correctly
llvm-svn: 137185
The synthetic children providers now use the new (safer) APIs to get the values of objects
As a side effect, fixed an issue in ValueObject where ResolveValue() was not always updating the value before reading it
