Summary:
We still have some leftovers of the old completion API in the internals of
LLDB that haven't been replaced by the new CompletionRequest. These leftovers
are:
* The return values (int/size_t) in all completion functions.
* Our result array that starts indexing at 1.
* `WordComplete` mode.
I didn't replace them back then because it's tricky to figure out what exactly they
are used for and the completion code is relatively untested. I finally got around
to writing more tests for the API and understanding the semantics, so I think it's
a good time to get rid of them.
A few words why those things should be removed/replaced:
* The return values are really cryptic, partly redundant and rarely documented.
They are also completely ignored by Xcode, so whatever information they contain will end up
breaking Xcode's completion mechanism. They are also partly impossible to even implement
as we assign negative values special meaning and our completion API sometimes returns size_t.
Completion functions are supposed to return -2 to rewrite the current line. We seem to use this
in some untested code path to expand the history repeat character to the full command, but
I haven't figured out why that doesn't work at the moment.
Completion functions return -1 to 'insert the completion character', but that isn't implemented
(even though we seem to activate this feature in LLDB sometimes).
All positive values have to match the number of results. This is obviously just redundant information
as the user can just look at the result list to get that information (which is what Xcode does).
* The result array that starts indexing at 1 is obviously unexpected. The first element of the array is
reserved for the common prefix of all completions (e.g. "foobar" and "footar" -> "foo"). The idea is
that we calculate this to make the life of the API caller easier, but obviously forcing people to have
1-based indices is not helpful (or even worse, forces them to manually copy the results to make it
0-based like Xcode has to do).
* The `WordComplete` mode indicates that LLDB should enter a space behind the completion. The
idea is that we let the top-level API know that we just provided a full completion. Interestingly we
`WordComplete` is just a single bool that somehow represents all N completions. And we always
provide full completions in LLDB, so in theory it should always be true.
The only use it currently serves is providing redundant information about whether we have a single
definitive completion or not (which we already know from the number of results we get).
This patch essentially removes `WordComplete` mode and makes the result array indexed from 0.
It also removes all return values from all internal completion functions. The only non-redundant information
they contain is about rewriting the current line (which is broken), so that functionality was moved
to the CompletionRequest API. So you can now do `addCompletion("blub", "description", CompletionMode::RewriteLine)`
to do the same.
For the SB API we emulate the old behaviour by making the array indexed from 1 again with the common
prefix at index 0. I didn't keep the special negative return codes as we either never sent them before (e.g. -2) or we
didn't even implement them in the Editline handler (e.g. -1).
I tried to keep this patch minimal and I'm aware we can probably now even further simplify a bunch of related code,
but I would prefer doing this in follow-up NFC commits

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This patch removes the comments grouping header includes. They were
added after running IWYU over the LLDB codebase. However they add little
value, are often outdates and burdensome to maintain.
llvm-svn: 346626
Summary:
We currently allow any completion handler to read and manipulate the list of matches we
calculated so far. This leads to a few problems:
Firstly, a completion handler's logic can now depend on previously calculated results
by another handlers. No completion handler should have such an implicit dependency,
but the current API makes it likely that this could happen (or already happens). Especially
the fact that some completion handler deleted all previously calculated results can mess
things up right now.
Secondly, all completion handlers have knowledge about our internal data structures with
this API. This makes refactoring this internal data structure much harder than it should be.
Especially planned changes like the support of descriptions for completions are currently
giant patches because we have to refactor every single completion handler.
This patch narrows the contract the CompletionRequest has with the different handlers to:
1. A handler can suggest a completion.
2. A handler can ask how many suggestions we already have.
Point 2 obviously means we still have a dependency left between the different handlers, but
getting rid of this is too large to just append it to this patch.
Otherwise this patch just completely hides the internal StringList to the different handlers.
The CompletionRequest API now also ensures that the list of completions is unique and we
don't suggest the same value multiple times to the user. This property has been so far only
been ensured by the `Option` handler, but is now applied globally. This is part of this patch
as the OptionHandler is no longer able to implement this functionality itself.

Summary:
As suggested in D48796, this patch replaces even more internal calls that were using the old
completion API style with a single CompletionRequest. In some cases we also pass an option
vector/index, but as we don't always have this information, it currently is not part of the
CompletionRequest class.
The constructor of the CompletionRequest is now also more sensible. You only pass the
user input, cursor position and your list of matches to the request and the rest will be
inferred (using the same code we used before to calculate this). You also have to pass these
match window parameters to it, even though they are unused right now.
The patch shouldn't change any behavior.

Summary:
The data structure is optimized for the case where the UUID size is <=
20 bytes (standard length emitted by the GNU linkers), but larger sizes
are also possible.
I've modified the string conversion function to support the new sizes as
well. For standard UUIDs it maintains the traditional formatting
(4-2-2-2-6). If a UUID is shorter, we just cut this sequence short, and
for longer UUIDs it will just repeat the last 6-byte block as long as
necessary.
I've also modified ObjectFileELF to take advantage of the new UUIDs and
avoid manually padding the UUID to 16 bytes. While there, I also made
sure the computed UUID does not depend on host endianness.

Instead of a separate GetBytes + GetByteSize methods I introduce a
single GetBytes method returning an ArrayRef.
This is NFC cleanup now, but it should make handling arbitrarily-sized
UUIDs cleaner, should we choose to go that way. I also took the
opportunity to add some unit tests for this class.

This renames the LLDB error class to Status, as discussed
on the lldb-dev mailing list.
A change of this magnitude cannot easily be done without
find and replace, but that has potential to catch unwanted
occurrences of common strings such as "Error". Every effort
was made to find all the obvious things such as the word "Error"
appearing in a string, etc, but it's possible there are still
some lingering occurences left around. Hopefully nothing too
serious.

This moves the following classes from Core -> Utility.
ConstString
Error
RegularExpression
Stream
StreamString
The goal here is to get lldbUtility into a state where it has
no dependendencies except on itself and LLVM, so it can be the
starting point at which to start untangling LLDB's dependencies.
These are all low level and very widely used classes, and
previously lldbUtility had dependencies up to lldbCore in order
to use these classes. So moving then down to lldbUtility makes
sense from both the short term and long term perspective in
solving this problem.

*** to conform to clang-format’s LLVM style. This kind of mass change has
*** two obvious implications:
Firstly, merging this particular commit into a downstream fork may be a huge
effort. Alternatively, it may be worth merging all changes up to this commit,
performing the same reformatting operation locally, and then discarding the
merge for this particular commit. The commands used to accomplish this
reformatting were as follows (with current working directory as the root of
the repository):
find . \( -iname "*.c" -or -iname "*.cpp" -or -iname "*.h" -or -iname "*.mm" \) -exec clang-format -i {} +
find . -iname "*.py" -exec autopep8 --in-place --aggressive --aggressive {} + ;
The version of clang-format used was 3.9.0, and autopep8 was 1.2.4.
Secondly, “blame” style tools will generally point to this commit instead of
a meaningful prior commit. There are alternatives available that will attempt
to look through this change and find the appropriate prior commit. YMMV.

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.

This is currently controlled by a setting:
(lldb) settings set target.process.python-os-plugin-path <path>
Or clearing it with:
(lldb) settings clear target.process.python-os-plugin-path
The process will now reload the OperatingSystem plug-in.
This was implemented by:
- adding the ability to set a notify callback for when an option value is changed
- added the ability for the process plug-in to load the operating system plug-in on the fly
- fixed bugs in the Process::GetStatus() so all threads are displayed if their thread IDs are larger than 32 bits
- adding a callback in ProcessProperties to tell when the "python-os-plugin-path" is changed by the user
- fixing a crasher in ProcessMachCore that happens when updating the thread list when the OS plugin is reloaded

Go and download the dSYM file for the "libunc.dylib" module in your target:
(lldb) add-dsym --shlib libunc.dylib

- 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".
