The problem is that editline currently is trying to be smart when we paste things into a terminal window. It detects that input is pending and multi-line input is accepted as long as there is anything pending.
So if you open lldb and paste the text between the quotes:
"command regex carp
s/^$/help/
carp
"
We still still be stuck in the "command regex" multi-line input reader as it will have all three lines:
"s/^$/help/
carp
"
The true fix for this is something Kate Stone will soon work on:
- multi-line input readers must opt into this paste/pending input feature ("expr" will opt into it, all other commands won't)
- If we are in a multi-line input reader that requests this and stuff is pasted, then it will do what it does today
- if we start in a IOHandler that doesn't need/want pending input and text is pasted, and we transistion to a IOHandler that does want this functionality, then disable the pending input. Example text would be:
"frame variable
thread backtrace
expr
for (int i=0;i<10;++i)
(int)printf("i = %i\n", i);
frame select 0
"
When we push the expression multi-line reader we would disable the pending input because we had pending input _before_ we entered "expr".
If we did this first:
(lldb) expr
Then we pasted:
"void foo()
{
}
void bar()
{
}
"
Then we would allow the pending input to not look for an empty line to terminate the expression. We filed radar 19008425 to track fixing this issue.
