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

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
llvm-svn: 263499
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.

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.

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.

If a command argument contains a space then it have to be escaped with

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.

Since interaction with the python interpreter is moving towards
being more isolated, we won't be able to include this header from
normal files anymore, all includes of it should be localized to
the python library which will live under source/bindings/API/Python
after a future patch.
None of the files that were including this header actually depended
on it anyway, so it was just a dead include in every single instance.

Summary:
"command alias" can add invalid options to the command. "command alias start process launch -s" will add an extra argument, "<no-argument>" to the alias, so it runs "process launch -s <no-argument>", which launches the process with args that include "<no-argument>".
This patch changes the text compare of the variable value with "<OptionParser::eNoArgument>" to a compare of variable value_type with OptionParser::eNoArgument. It also moves the previous test inside the if, so it won't add a trailing space if there is no argument.

Summary:
Presently Args::SetCommandString allows quotes to be escaped with backslash. However, the
backslash itself is not removed from the argument, nor there is a way to escape the backslash
itself. This leads to surprising results:
"a b" c" -> 'a b', 'c' # Here we actually have an unterminated quote, but that is ignored
"a b\" c" -> 'a b\" c' # We try to escape the quote. That works but the backslash is not removed.
"a b\\" c" -> 'a b\\" c' # Escaping the backslash has no effect.
This change changes quote handling to be more shell-like:
- single quotes and backquotes are literal and there is no way to escape the closing quote or
anything else inside;
- inside double quotes you can use backslash to escape the closing quote and another backslash
- outside any quotes, you can use backslash to escape quotes, spaces and itself.
This makes the parsing more consistent with what the user is familiar and increases the
probability that pasting the command line from shell to the "process launch" command "just work".

The default help display now shows the alias collection by default, and hides commands whose named begin with an underscore. Help is primarily useful to those unfamiliar with LLDB and should aim to answer typical questions while still being able to provide more esoteric answers when required. To that latter end an argument to include the hidden commands in help has been added, and instead of having a help flag to show aliases there is now one to hide them. This final change might be controversial as it repurposes the -a shorthand as the opposite of its original meaning.
The previous implementation of OutputFormattedHelpText was easily confused by embedded newlines. The new algorithm correctly breaks on the FIRST newline or LAST space/tab before the target column count rather than treating all whitespace interchangeably.
Command interpreters now have the ability to specify help prologue text and a command prefix string. Neither are used in the current LLDB sources but are required to support REPL-like extensions where LLDB commands must be prefixed and additional help text is required to explain how to access traditional debugging commands.

This new command will delete user defined regular commands, but not aliases. We still have "command unalias" to remove aliases as they are currently in different buckets. Appropriate error messages are displayed to inform the user when "command unalias" is used on removable user defined commands that points users to the "command delete" command.
Added a test to verify we can remove user defined commands and also verify that "command unalias" fails when used on a user defined command.
