This involved minor changes to the way we report Objective-C
methods, as well as cosmetic changes and added parameters
for a variety of Clang APIs.

expression parser. You can use a persistent
type like this:
(lldb) expr struct $foo { int a; int b; };
(lldb) struct $foo i; i.a = 2; i.b = 3; i
($foo) $0 = {
(int) a = 2
(int) b = 3
}
typedefs work similarly.
This patch affects the following files:
test/expression_command/persistent_types/*
A test case for persistent types,
in particular structs and typedefs.
ClangForward.h
Added TypeDecl, needed to declare some
functions in ASTResultSynthesizer.h
ClangPersistentVariables.[h,cpp]
Added a list of persistent types to the
persistent variable store.
ASTResultSynthesizer.[h,cpp]
Made the AST result synthesizer iterate
across TypeDecls in the expression, and
record any persistent types found. Also
made a minor documentation fix.
ClangUserExpression.[h,cpp]
Extended the user expression class to
keep the state needed to report the
persistent variable store for the target
to the AST result synthesizers.
Also introduced a new error code for
expressions that executed normally but
did not return a result.
CommandObjectExpression.cpp
Improved output for expressions (like
declarations of new persistent types) that
don't return a result. This is no longer
treated as an error.

expressions that used function pointers. The problem
was that IRForTarget previously only scanned the IR
for the expression for call instructions; if a function
was used in another context, it was ignored.
Now LLDB scans the Module for functions that are only
declared (not also defined -- so these are externals);
it then constructs function pointers for these
functions and substitutes them wherever the function
is used.
Also made some changes so that "expr main" works just
as well as "expr &main"; they end up being the same
code, but LLDB was generating the result variable in
different ways.

pointers. Some of the spots are obviously initialized
later, but it's better just to NULL the pointers out
at initialization to make the code more robust when
exposed to later changes.

by LLDB. Instead of being materialized into the input structure
passed to the expression, variables are left in place and pointers
to them are materialzied into the structure. Variables not resident
in memory (notably, registers) get temporary memory regions allocated
for them.
Persistent variables are the most complex part of this, because they
are made in various ways and there are different expectations about
their lifetime. Persistent variables now have flags indicating their
status and what the expectations for longevity are. They can be
marked as residing in target memory permanently -- this is the
default for result variables from expressions entered on the command
line and for explicitly declared persistent variables (but more on
that below). Other result variables have their memory freed.
Some major improvements resulting from this include being able to
properly take the address of variables, better and cleaner support
for functions that return references, and cleaner C++ support in
general. One problem that remains is the problem of explicitly
declared persistent variables; I have not yet implemented the code
that makes references to them into indirect references, so currently
materialization and dematerialization of these variables is broken.

access to the members of the Objective-C self object.
The approach we take is to generate the method as a
@category on top of the self object, and to pass the
"self" pointer to it. (_cmd is currently NULL.)
Most changes are in ClangExpressionDeclMap, but the
change that adds support to the ABIs to pass _cmd
touches a fair amount of code.

that the result of an expression should be coerced to
a specific type. Also made breakpoint conditions pass
in the bool type for this type.
The expression parser ignores this indication for now.

don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.

Changed all of our synthesized "___clang" functions, types and variables
that get used in expressions over to have a prefix of "$_lldb". Now when we
do name lookups we can easily switch off of the first '$' character to know
if we should look through only our internal (when first char is '$') stuff,
or when we should look through program variables, functions and types.
Converted all of the clang expression code over to using "const ConstString&"
values for names instead of "const char *" since there were many places that
were converting the "const char *" names into ConstString names and them
throwing them away. We now avoid making a lot of ConstString conversions and
benefit from the quick comparisons in a few extra spots.
Converted a lot of code from LLVM coding conventions into LLDB coding
conventions.

- Sema is now exported (and there was much rejoicing.)
- Storage classes are now centrally defined.
Also fixed some bugs that the new LLVM picked up.
llvm-svn: 114622
- If you put a semicolon at the end of an expression,
this no longer causes the expression parser to
error out. This was a two-part fix: first,
ClangExpressionDeclMap::Materialize now handles
an empty struct (such as when there is no return
value); second, ASTResultSynthesizer walks backward
from the end of the ASTs until it reaches something
that's not a NullStmt.
- ClangExpressionVariable now properly byte-swaps when
printing itself.
- ClangUtilityFunction now cleans up after itself when
it's done compiling itself.
- Utility functions can now use external functions just
like user expressions.
- If you end your expression with a statement that does
not return a value, the expression now runs correctly
anyway.
Also, added the beginnings of an Objective-C object
validator function, which is neither installed nor used
as yet.

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.
