The many many benefits include:
1 - Input/Output/Error streams are now handled as real streams not a push style input
2 - auto completion in python embedded interpreter
3 - multi-line input for "script" and "expression" commands now allow you to edit previous/next lines using up and down arrow keys and this makes multi-line input actually a viable thing to use
4 - it is now possible to use curses to drive LLDB (please try the "gui" command)
We will need to deal with and fix any buildbot failures and tests and arise now that input/output and error are correctly hooked up in all cases.

SBType SBType::GetTypedefedType();
Also added the ability to get a type by type ID from a SBModule:
SBType SBModule::GetTypeByID (lldb::user_id_t uid);
llvm-svn: 199939
The "type format add" command gets a new flag --type (-t). If you pass -t <sometype>, upon fetching the value for an object of your type,
LLDB will display it as-if it was of enumeration type <sometype>
This is useful in cases of non-contiguous enums where there are empty gaps of unspecified values, and as such one cannot type their variables as the enum type,
but users would still like to see them as-if they were of the enum type (e.g. DWARF field types with their user-reserved ranges)
The SB API has also been improved to handle both types of formats, and a test case is added

libdispatch aka Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) queues. Still fleshing out the
documentation and testing of these but the overall API is settling down so it's
a good time to check it in.

This patch adds a new lldb_private::SectionLoadHistory class that tracks what shared libraries were loaded given a process stop ID. This allows us to keep a history of the sections that were loaded for a time T. Many items in history objects will rely upon the process stop ID in the future.

Example code:
remote_platform = lldb.SBPlatform("remote-macosx");
remote_platform.SetWorkingDirectory("/private/tmp")
debugger.SetSelectedPlatform(remote_platform)
connect_options = lldb.SBPlatformConnectOptions("connect://localhost:1111");
err = remote_platform.ConnectRemote(connect_options)
if err.Success():
print >> result, 'Connected to remote platform:'
print >> result, 'hostname: %s' % (remote_platform.GetHostname())
src = lldb.SBFileSpec("/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework", False)
dst = lldb.SBFileSpec()
# copy src to platform working directory since "dst" is empty
err = remote_platform.Install(src, dst);
if err.Success():
print >> result, '%s installed successfully' % (src)
else:
print >> result, 'error: failed to install "%s": %s' % (src, err)
Implemented many calls needed in lldb-platform to be able to install a directory that contains symlinks, file and directories.
The remote lldb-platform can now launch GDB servers on the remote system so that remote debugging can be spawned through the remote platform when connected to a remote platform.
The API in SBPlatform is subject to change and will be getting many new functions.

(and same thing to Thread base class) which can be used when looking
at an ExtendedBacktrace thread; it will try to find the IndexID() of
the original thread that was executing this backtrace when it was
recorded. If lldb can't find a record of that thread, it will return
the same value as IndexID() for the ExtendedBacktrace thread.

It completes the job of using EvaluateExpressionOptions consistently throughout
the inferior function calling mechanism in lldb begun in Greg's patch r194009.
It removes a handful of alternate calls into the ClangUserExpression/ClangFunction/ThreadPlanCallFunction which
were there for convenience. Using the EvaluateExpressionOptions removes the need for them.
Using that it gets the --debug option from Greg's patch to work cleanly.
It also adds another EvaluateExpressionOption to not trap exceptions when running expressions. You shouldn't
use this option unless you KNOW your expression can't throw beyond itself. This is:
<rdar://problem/15374885>
At present this is only available through the SB API's or python.
It fixes a bug where function calls would unset the ObjC & C++ exception breakpoints without checking whether
they were set by somebody else already.

GetThreadOriginExtendedBacktraceTypeAtIndex methods to
SBProcess.
Add documentation for the GetQueueName and GetQueueID methods
to SBThread.

Implement SBTarget::CreateValueFromAddress() with a behavior equivalent to SBValue::CreateValueFromAddress()
(but without the need to grab an SBValue first just as a starting point to make up another SBValue out of whole cloth)
llvm-svn: 192239
This allows the PC to be directly changed to a different line.
It's similar to the example python script in examples/python/jump.py, except implemented as a builtin.
Also this version will track the current function correctly even if the target line resolves to multiple addresses. (e.g. debugging a templated function)
llvm-svn: 190572
There are two new classes:
lldb::SBModuleSpec
lldb::SBModuleSpecList
The SBModuleSpec wraps up a lldb_private::ModuleSpec, and SBModuleSpecList wraps up a lldb_private::ModuleSpecList.

The semi-unofficial way of returning a status from a Python command was to return a string (e.g. return "no such variable was found") that LLDB would pick as a clue of an error having happened
This checkin changes that:
- SBCommandReturnObject now exports a SetError() call, which can take an SBError or a plain C-string
- script commands now drop any return value and expect the SBCommandReturnObject ("return object") to be filled in appropriately - if you do nothing, a success will be assumed
If your commands were relying on returning a value and having LLDB pick that up as an error, please change your commands to SetError() through the return object or expect changes in behavior
llvm-svn: 184893
The script was able to point out and save 40 bytes in each lldb_private::Section by being very careful where we need to have virtual destructors and also by re-ordering members.

This lets you request types by filling out a mask that contains one or more bits from the lldb::TypeClass enumerations, so you can only get the types you really want.
