DumpValueObject() 2.0
This checkin restores pre-Xcode5 functionality to the "po" (expr -O) command:
- expr now has a new --description-verbosity (-v) argument, which takes either compact or full as a value (-v is the same as -vfull)
When the full mode is on, "po" will show the extended output with type name, persistent variable name and value, as in
(lldb) expr -O -v -- foo
(id) $0 = 0x000000010010baf0 {
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
When -v is omitted, or -vcompact is passed, the Xcode5-style output will be shown, as in
(lldb) expr -O -- foo
{
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
- for a non-ObjectiveC object, LLDB will still try to retrieve a summary and/or value to display
(lldb) po 5
5
-v also works in this mode
(lldb) expr -O -vfull -- 5
(int) $4 = 5
On top of that, this is a major refactoring of the ValueObject printing code. The functionality is now factored into a ValueObjectPrinter class for easier maintenance in the future
DumpValueObject() was turned into an instance method ValueObject::Dump() which simply calls through to the printer code, Dump_Impl has been removed
Test case to follow
llvm-svn: 191694
ValueObjects themselves use DumpValueObjectOptions as the currency for the same purpose
The code to convert between these two units was replicated (to varying degrees of correctness) in several spots in the code
This checkin provides one and only one (and hopefully correct :-) entry point for this conversion
llvm-svn: 178044
the option to print the runtime-specific description has been modified in the frame variable, memory read and expression command.
All three commands now support a --object-description option, with a shortcut of -O (uppercase letter o)
This is a breaking change:
frame variable used --objc as the long option name
expression used -o as a shortcut
memory read uses --objd as the long option name
Hopefully, most users won't be affected by the change since people tend to access "expression --object-description" under the alias "po" which still works
The test suite has been tweaked accordingly.

- add new header lldb-python.h to be included before other system headers
- short term fix (eventually python dependencies must be cleaned up)
Patch by Matt Kopec!
llvm-svn: 169341
Cleaned up the option parsing code to always pass around the short options as integers. Previously we cast this down to "char" and lost some information. I recently added an assert that would detect duplicate short character options which was firing during the test suite.
This fix does the following:
- make sure all short options are treated as "int"
- make sure that short options can be non-printable values when a short option is not required or when an option group is mixed into many commands and a short option is not desired
- fix the help printing to "do the right thing" in all cases. Previously if there were duplicate short character options, it would just not emit help for the duplicates
- fix option parsing when there are duplicates to parse options correctly. Previously the option parsing, when done for an OptionGroup, would just start parsing options incorrectly by omitting table entries and it would end up setting the wrong option value

- no setting auto completion
- very manual and error prone way of getting/setting variables
- tons of code duplication
- useless instance names for processes, threads
Now settings can easily be defined like option values. The new settings makes use of the "OptionValue" classes so we can re-use the option value code that we use to set settings in command options. No more instances, just "does the right thing".

properly marked as valid.
Also modified the "memory read" command to be able to intelligently repeat
subsequent memory requests, so now you can do:
(lldb) memory read --format hex --count 32 0x1000
Then hit enter to keep viewing the memory that follows the last valid request.

lldb_private::Error objects the rules are:
- short strings that don't start with a capitol letter unless the name is a
class or anything else that is always capitolized
- no trailing newline character
- should be one line if possible
Implemented a first pass at adding "--gdb-format" support to anything that
accepts format with optional size/count.
llvm-svn: 142999
Fixed up DWARFDebugAranges to use the new range classes.
Fixed the enumeration parsing to take a lldb_private::Error to avoid a lot of duplicated code. Now when an invalid enumeration is supplied, an error will be returned and that error will contain a list of the valid enumeration values.

shared pointers.
Changed the ExecutionContext over to use shared pointers for
the target, process, thread and frame since these objects can
easily go away at any time and any object that was holding onto
an ExecutionContext was running the risk of using a bad object.
Now that the shared pointers for target, process, thread and
frame are just a single pointer (they all use the instrusive
shared pointers) the execution context is much safer and still
the same size.
Made the shared pointers in the the ExecutionContext class protected
and made accessors for all of the various ways to get at the pointers,
references, and shared pointers.

*New setting target.max-children-count gives an upper-bound to the number of child objects that will be displayed at each depth-level
This might be a breaking change in some scenarios. To override the new limit you can use the --show-all-children (-A) option
to frame variable or increase the limit in your lldbinit file
*Command "type synthetic" has been split in two:
- "type synthetic" now only handles Python synthetic children providers
- the new command "type filter" handles filters
Because filters and synthetic providers are both ways to replace the children of a ValueObject, only one can be effective at any given time.
llvm-svn: 137416
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
(e.g. ${var%S}). this might already be the default if your variable is of an aggregate type
new feature: synthetic filters. you can restrict the number of children for your variables to only a meaningful subset
- the restricted list of children obeys the typical rules (e.g. summaries prevail over children)
- one-line summaries show only the filtered (synthetic) children, if you type an expanded summary string, or you use Python scripts, all the real children are accessible
- to provide a synthetic children list use the "type synth add" command, as in:
type synth add foo_type --child varA --child varB[0] --child varC->packet->flags[1-4]
(you can use ., ->, single-item array operator [N] and bitfield operator [N-M]; array slice access is not supported, giving simplified names to expression paths is not supported)
- a new -S option to frame variable and target variable lets you override synthetic children and instead show real ones
llvm-svn: 135731
- help type summary add now gives some hints on how to use it
frame variable and target variable now have a --no-summary-depth (-Y) option:
- simply using -Y without an argument will skip one level of summaries, i.e.
your aggregate types will expand their children and display no summary, even
if they have one. children will behave normally
- using -Y<int>, as in -Y4, -Y7, ..., will skip as many levels of summaries as
given by the <int> parameter (obviously, -Y and -Y1 are the same thing). children
beneath the given depth level will behave normally
-Y0 is the same as omitting the --no-summary-depth parameter entirely
This option replaces the defined-but-unimplemented --no-summary
llvm-svn: 135336
new OptionGroup subclasses for:
- output file for use with options:
long opts: --outfile <path> --append--output
short opts: -o <path> -A
- format for use with options:
long opts: --format <format>
- variable object display controls for depth, pointer depth, wether to show
types, show summary, show location, flat output, use objc "po" style summary.
Modified ValueObjectMemory to be able to be created either with a TypeSP or
a ClangASTType.
Switched "memory read" over to use OptionGroup subclasses: one for the outfile
options, one for the command specific options, and one for the format.
