Apparently, when using swig 1.3.40, properties to set values do not work
without the `__swig_setmethods__` workaround. I conditionally added this
back for SBTypeCategory, as it's causing a test failure on GreenDragon,
while I investigate this further.

As of SWIG 4.0, __swig_getmethods__ and __swig_setmethods__ are no
longer defined. It appears that there's no need to mess with these
internals, we can simplify define the corresponding properties inline.
Originally I wanted to use the swig extension %attribute and
%attributeref to define properties. However, I couldn't find a way to
add documentation to these attributes. Since we already had the
properties defined inline, we might as well keep them.

As of SWIG 4.0, __swig_getmethods__ and __swig_setmethods__ are no
longer defined. The solution is to stop using these internal swig
dictionaries and use %attribute and %attributeref instead. I plan on
doing this incrementally, with this differential serving as an example.

The strings have been already cleaned up in r358683, so this code is not
doing anything anymore.
While comparing the outputs before and after removing the formatting
code, I've found a couple of docstrings that managed to escape my perl
script in r358683, so I format them manually with this patch.
llvm-svn: 358846
Summary:
This patch removes the "//----" frames and "///" leading lines from
docstring comments. We already have code doing transformations like this in
modify-python-lldb.py, but that's a script I'd like to remove. Instead
of running these transformations everytime we run swig, we can just
perform equivalent on its input once.
This patch can be reproduced (e.g. for downstream merges) with the
following "sweet" perl command:
perl -i -p -e 'BEGIN{ $/ = undef;} s:(" *\n) *//-----*\n:\1:gs; s:^( *)/// ?:\1:gsm; s:^ *//------*\n( *\n)?( *"):\2:gsm; s: *$::gsm; s:\n *"\):"):gsm' scripts/interface/*.i
This command produces nearly equivalent python files to those produced
by the relevant code in modify-python-lldb.py. The only difference I
noticed is that here I am slightly more agressive in removing trailing
newlines from docstring comments (the python script seems to leave
newlines in class-level docstrings).

Summary:
Some of these were present in files which should never be read by swig
(and we also had one in the interface file, which is only read by swig).
They are probably leftovers from the time when we were running swig over
lldb headers directly.
While writing this patch, I noticed that some of the #ifdefs were
guarding public functions that were operating on lldb_private data
types. While it wasn't strictly necessary for this patch, I made these
private, as nobody should really be accessing them. This can potentially
break existing code if it happened to use these methods, though it will
only break at build time -- if someone builds against an old header, he
should still be able to link to a new lldb library, since the functions
are still there.
We could keep these public for backward compatbility, but I would argue
that if anyone was actually using these functions for anything, his code
is already broken.

This patch moves the modify-python-lldb code for adding new functions to

Summary:
Instead of modifying the swig-generated code, just add the appropriate
methods to the interface files in order to get the swig to do the
generation for us.
This is a straight-forward move from the python script to the interface
files. The single class which has nontrivial handling in the script
(SBModule) has been left for a separate patch.
For the cases where I did not find any tests exercising the
iteration/length methods (i.e., no tests failed after I stopped emitting
them), I tried to add basic tests for that functionality.

Summary:
modify-python-lldb.py had code to insert python equality operators to
some classes. Some of those classes already had c++ equality operators,
and some didn't.
This makes the situation more consistent, by removing all equality
handilng from modify-python-lldb. Instead, I add c++ operators to
classes where they were missing, and expose them in the swig interface
files so that they are available to python too.
The only tricky case was the SBAddress class, which had an operator==
defined as a free function, which is not handled by swig. This function
cannot be removed without breaking ABI, and we cannot add an extra
operator== member, as that would make equality comparisons ambiguous.
For this class, I define a python __eq__ function by hand and have it
delegate to the operator!=, which I have defined as a member function.
This isn't fully NFC, as the semantics of some equality functions in
python changes slightly, but I believe it changes for the better (e.g.,
previously SBBreakpoint.__eq__ would consider two breakpoints with the
same ID as equal, even if they belonged to different targets; now they
are only equal if they belong to the same target).

Summary:
In my next step at cleaning up modify-python-lldb.py, I started focusing
on equality comparison. To my surprise, I found out that both python and
c++ versions of the SBType class implement equality comparison, but each
one does it differently. While the python version was implemented in
terms of type name equality, the C++ one used a deep comparison on the
underlying objects.
Removing the python version caused one test to fail (TestTypeList). This
happened because the c++ version of operator== boiled down to
TypePair::operator==, which contains two items: the compiler_type and
type_sp. In this case, the compiler_type was identical, but one of the
objects had the type_sp field unset.
I tried fixing the code so that both objects keep their type_sp member,
but it wasn't easy, because there are so many operations which just work
with the CompilerType types, and so any operation on the SBType (the
test in question was doing GetPointeeType on the type of one variable
and expecting it to match the type of another variable), cause that
second member to be lost.
So instead, here I relax the equality comparison on the TypePair
class. Now, this class ignores the type_sp for the purposes of
comparison, and uses the CompilerType only. This seems reasonable, as
each TypeSP is able to convert itself to a CompilerType.

Summary:
Our python version of the SB API has (the python equivalent of)
operator bool, but the C++ version doesn't.
This is because our python operators are added by modify-python-lldb.py,
which performs postprocessing on the swig-generated interface files.
In this patch, I add the "operator bool" to all SB classes which have an
IsValid method (which is the same logic used by modify-python-lldb.py).
This way, we make the two interfaces more constent, and it allows us to
rely on swig's automatic syntesis of python __nonzero__ methods instead
of doing manual fixups.

Summary:
Swig is perfectly capable of inserting blocks of python code into its
output (and we use those fascilities already), so there's no need for
this to be done in a post-process step.
lldb_iter is a general-purpose utility used from many classes, so I add
it to the main swig file. The other two blocks are tied to a specific
class, so I add it to the interface file of that class.

Summary:
This patch adds support of expression evaluation in a context of some object.
Consider the following example:
```
struct S {
int a = 11;
int b = 12;
};
int main() {
S s;
int a = 1;
int b = 2;
// We have stopped here
return 0;
}
```
This patch allows to do something like that:
```
lldb.frame.FindVariable("s").EvaluateExpression("a + b")
```
and the result will be `33` (not `3`) because fields `a` and `b` of `s` will be
used (not locals `a` and `b`).
This is achieved by replacing of `this` type and object for the expression. This
has some limitations: an expression can be evaluated only for values located in
the debuggee process memory (they must have an address of `eAddressTypeLoad`
type).

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

This builds on https://reviews.llvm.org/D43884 and https://reviews.llvm.org/D43886 and extends LLDB support of Obj-C exceptions to also look for a "current exception" for a thread in the C++ exception handling runtime metadata (via call to __cxa_current_exception_type). We also construct an actual historical SBThread/ThreadSP that contains frames from the backtrace in the Obj-C exception object.
The high level goal this achieves is that when we're already crashed (because an unhandled exception occurred), we can still access the exception object and retrieve the backtrace from the throw point. In Obj-C, this is particularly useful because a catch+rethrow is very common and in those cases you currently don't have any access to the throw point backtrace.

This patch changes the way the reproducer is initialized. Rather than
making changes at run time we now do everything at initialization time.
To make this happen we had to introduce initializer options and their SB
variant. This allows us to tell the initializer that we're running in
reproducer capture/replay mode.
Because of this change we also had to alter our testing strategy. We
cannot reinitialize LLDB when using the dotest infrastructure. Instead
we use lit and invoke two instances of the driver.
Another consequence is that we can no longer enable capture or replay
through commands. This was bound to go away form the beginning, but I
had something in mind where you could enable/disable specific providers.
However this seems like it adds very little value right now so the
corresponding commands were removed.
Finally this change also means you now have to control this through the
driver, for which I replaced --reproducer with --capture and --replay to
differentiate between the two modes.

Summary:
This patch fixes the next situation. On Windows clang-cl makes no stub before
the main function, so the main function is located exactly on module entry
point. May be it is the same on other platforms. So consider the following
sequence:
- set a breakpoint on main and stop there;
- try to evaluate expression, which requires a code execution on the debuggee
side. Such an execution always returns to the module entry, and the plan waits
for it there;
- the plan understands that it is complete now and removes its breakpoint. But
the breakpoint site is still there, because we also have a breakpoint on
entry;
- StopInfo analyzes a situation. It sees that we have stopped on the breakpoint
site, and it sees that the breakpoint site has owners, and no one logical
breakpoint is internal (because the plan is already completed and it have
removed its breakpoint);
- StopInfo thinks that it's a user breakpoint and skips it to avoid recursive
computations;
- the program continues.
So in this situation the program continues without a stop right after
the expression evaluation. To avoid this an additional check that
the plan was completed was added.
