The goal is to separate the parser's data from the data
belonging to the parser's clients. This allows clients
to use the parser to obtain (for example) a JIT compiled
function or some DWARF code, and then discard the parser
state.
Previously, parser state was held in ClangExpression and
used liberally by ClangFunction, which inherited from
ClangExpression. The main effects of this refactoring
are:
- reducing ClangExpression to an abstract class that
declares methods that any client must expose to the
expression parser,
- moving the code specific to implementing the "expr"
command from ClangExpression and
CommandObjectExpression into ClangUserExpression,
a new class,
- moving the common parser interaction code from
ClangExpression into ClangExpressionParser, a new
class, and
- making ClangFunction rely only on
ClangExpressionParser and not depend on the
internal implementation of ClangExpression.
Side effects include:
- the compiler interaction code has been factored
out of ClangFunction and is now in an AST pass
(ASTStructExtractor),
- the header file for ClangFunction is now fully
documented,
- several bugs that only popped up when Clang was
deallocated (which never happened, since the
lifetime of the compiler was essentially infinite)
are now fixed, and
- the developer-only "call" command has been
disabled.
I have tested the expr command and the Objective-C
step-into code, which use ClangUserExpression and
ClangFunction, respectively, and verified that they
work. Please let me know if you encounter bugs or
poor documentation.

Move the "source", "alias", and "unalias" commands to "commands *".
Move "source-file" to "source list".
Added a "source info" command but it isn't implemented yet.

instead of the last history item to provide a command for the "empty" command.
Use this in the source-file command to make <RETURN> continue the listing rather
than relist the first listing...

interface so everybody does it the same way. Add an "exact" lookup for internal uses.
Fix up a few little cases where we weren't reporting command lookup errors correctly.
Added "b" as an alias for "breakpoint" so it doesn't collide with "bt".

Add a way for the completers to say whether the completed argument should have a space inserted after is
or not.
Added the file name completer to the "file" command.

to the debugger from GUI windows. Previously there was one global debugger
instance that could be accessed that had its own command interpreter and
current state (current target/process/thread/frame). When a GUI debugger
was attached, if it opened more than one window that each had a console
window, there were issues where the last one to setup the global debugger
object won and got control of the debugger.
To avoid this we now create instances of the lldb_private::Debugger that each
has its own state:
- target list for targets the debugger instance owns
- current process/thread/frame
- its own command interpreter
- its own input, output and error file handles to avoid conflicts
- its own input reader stack
So now clients should call:
SBDebugger::Initialize(); // (static function)
SBDebugger debugger (SBDebugger::Create());
// Use which ever file handles you wish
debugger.SetErrorFileHandle (stderr, false);
debugger.SetOutputFileHandle (stdout, false);
debugger.SetInputFileHandle (stdin, true);
// main loop
SBDebugger::Terminate(); // (static function)
SBDebugger::Initialize() and SBDebugger::Terminate() are ref counted to
ensure nothing gets destroyed too early when multiple clients might be
attached.
Cleaned up the command interpreter and the CommandObject and all subclasses
to take more appropriate arguments.
