instance:
settings set frame-format <string>
settings set thread-format <string>
This allows users to control the information that is seen when dumping
threads and frames. The default values are set such that they do what they
used to do prior to changing over the the user defined formats.
This allows users with terminals that can display color to make different
items different colors using the escape control codes. A few alias examples
that will colorize your thread and frame prompts are:
settings set frame-format 'frame #${frame.index}: \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{ \033[0;35mat \033[1;35m${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\033[0m\n'
settings set thread-format 'thread #${thread.index}: \033[1;33mtid\033[0;33m = ${thread.id}\033[0m{, \033[0;33m${frame.pc}\033[0m}{ \033[1;4;36m${module.file.basename}\033[0;36m ${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}\033[0m}{, \033[1;35mstop reason\033[0;35m = ${thread.stop-reason}\033[0m}{, \033[1;36mname = \033[0;36m${thread.name}\033[0m}{, \033[1;32mqueue = \033[0;32m${thread.queue}}\033[0m\n'
A quick web search for "colorize terminal output" should allow you to see what
you can do to make your output look like you want it.
The "settings set" commands above can of course be added to your ~/.lldbinit
file for permanent use.
Changed the pure virtual
void ExecutionContextScope::Calculate (ExecutionContext&);
To:
void ExecutionContextScope::CalculateExecutionContext (ExecutionContext&);
I did this because this is a class that anything in the execution context
heirarchy inherits from and "target->Calculate (exe_ctx)" didn't always tell
you what it was really trying to do unless you look at the parameter.

Added the start of Host specific launch services, though it currently isn't
hookup up to anything. We want to be able to launch a process and use the
native launch services to launch an app like it would be launched by the
user double clicking on the app. We also eventually want to be able to run
a command line app in a newly spawned terminal to avoid terminal sharing.
Fixed an issue with the new DWARF forward type declaration stuff. A crasher
was found that was happening when trying to properly expand the forward
declarations.

the parent of Process settings; add 'default-arch' as a
class-wide setting for Target. Replace lldb::GetDefaultArchitecture
with Target::GetDefaultArchitecture & Target::SetDefaultArchitecture.
Add 'use-external-editor' as user setting to Debugger class & update
code appropriately.
Add Error parameter to methods that get user settings, for easier
reporting of bad requests.
Fix various other minor related bugs.
Fix test cases to work with new changes.

replacing the "(lldb)" prompt, the "frame #1..." displays when doing
stack backtracing and the "thread #1....". This will allow you to see
exactly the information that you want to see where you want to see it.
This currently isn't hookup up to the prompts yet, but it will be soon.
So what is the format of the prompts? Prompts can contain variables that
have access to the current program state. Variables are text that appears
in between a prefix of "${" and ends with a "}". Some of the interesting
variables include:
// The frame index (0, 1, 2, 3...)
${frame.index}
// common frame registers with generic names
${frame.pc}
${frame.sp}
${frame.fp}
${frame.ra}
${frame.flags}
// Access to any frame registers by name where REGNAME is any register name:
${frame.reg.REGNAME}
// The current compile unit file where the frame is located
${file.basename}
${file.fullpath}
// Function information
${function.name}
${function.pc-offset}
// Process info
${process.file.basename}
${process.file.fullpath}
${process.id}
${process.name}
// Thread info
${thread.id}
${thread.index}
${thread.name}
${thread.queue}
${thread.stop-reason}
// Target information
${target.arch}
// The current module for the current frame (the shared library or executable
// that contains the current frame PC value):
${module.file.basename}
${module.file.fullpath}
// Access to the line entry for where the current frame is when your thread
// is stopped:
${line.file.basename}
${line.file.fullpath}
${line.number}
${line.start-addr}
${line.end-addr}
Many times the information that you might have in your prompt might not be
available and you won't want it to print out if it isn't valid. To take care
of this you can enclose everything that must resolve into a scope. A scope
is starts with '{' and ends with '}'. For example in order to only display
the current file and line number when the information is available the format
would be:
"{ at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
Broken down this is:
start the scope: "{"
format whose content will only be displayed if all information is available:
"at {$line.file.basename}:${line.number}"
end the scope: "}"
We currently can represent the infomration we see when stopped at a frame:
frame #0: 0x0000000100000e85 a.out`main + 4 at test.c:19
with the following format:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} {${module.file.basename}`}{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}\n"
This breaks down to always print:
"frame #${frame.index}: ${frame.pc} "
only print the module followed by a tick if we have a valid module:
"{${module.file.basename}`}"
print the function name with optional offset:
"{${function.name}{${function.pc-offset}}"
print the line info if it is available:
"{ at ${line.file.basename}:${line.number}}"
then finish off with a newline:
"\n"
Notice you can also put newlines ("\n") and tabs and everything else you
are used to putting in a format string when desensitized with the \ character.
Cleaned up some of the user settings controller subclasses. All of them
do not have any global settings variables and were all implementing stubs
for the get/set global settings variable. Now there is a default version
in UserSettingsController that will do nothing.

accessed by the objects that own the settings. The previous approach wasn't
very usable and made for a lot of unnecessary code just to access variables
that were already owned by the objects.
While I fixed those things, I saw that CommandObject objects should really
have a reference to their command interpreter so they can access the terminal
with if they want to output usaage. Fixed up all CommandObjects to take
an interpreter and cleaned up the API to not need the interpreter to be
passed in.
Fixed the disassemble command to output the usage if no options are passed
down and arguments are passed (all disassebmle variants take options, there
are no "args only").
llvm-svn: 114252
was used to set the selected thread if none was selected. Use a more robust
API to accomplish the task.
Also fixed an error found, while investigating, in CommandObjectThreadSelect::
Execute() where the return status was not properly set if successful.
As a result, both the stl step-in test cases with expectedFailure decorators now
passed.

to be set up the way they are. Comment out code that removes pending
settings for live instances (after the settings are copied over).

Make get/set variable at the debugger level always set the particular debugger's instance variables rather than
the default variables.

pending instance uses the specified instance name rather than creating a new one; add brackets to instance names
when searching for and removing pending instances.

handles user settable internal variables (the equivalent of set/show
variables in gdb). In addition to the basic infrastructure (most of
which is defined in UserSettingsController.{h,cpp}, there are examples
of two classes that have been set up to contain user settable
variables (the Debugger and Process classes). The 'settings' command
has been modified to be a command-subcommand structure, and the 'set',
'show' and 'append' commands have been moved into this sub-commabnd
structure. The old StateVariable class has been completely replaced
by this, and the state variable dictionary has been removed from the
Command Interpreter. Places that formerly accessed the state variable
mechanism have been modified to access the variables in this new
structure instead (checking the term-width; getting/checking the
prompt; etc.)
Variables are attached to classes; there are two basic "flavors" of
variables that can be set: "global" variables (static/class-wide), and
"instance" variables (one per instance of the class). The whole thing
has been set up so that any global or instance variable can be set at
any time (e.g. on start up, in your .lldbinit file), whether or not
any instances actually exist (there's a whole pending and default
values mechanism to help deal with that).
llvm-svn: 113041
execution context only when the process is still alive. When running the test
suite, the debugger is launching and killing processes constantly.
This might be the cause of the test hang as reported in rdar://problem/8377854,
where the debugger was looping infinitely trying to update a supposedly stale
thread list.
llvm-svn: 113022
Add functions to look up debugger by id
Add global variable to lldb python module, to hold debugger id
Modify embedded Python interpreter to update the global variable with the
id of its current debugger.
Modify the char ** typemap definition in lldb.swig to accept 'None' (for NULL)
as a valid value.
The point of all this is so that, when you drop into the embedded interpreter
from the command interpreter (or when doing Python-based breakpoint commands),
there is a way for the Python side to find/get the correct debugger
instance ( by checking debugger_unique_id, then calling
SBDebugger::FindDebuggerWithID on it).
llvm-svn: 107287
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.
