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
llvm-svn: 198105
TypeFormatImpl used to just wrap a Format (and Flags for matching), and then ValueObject itself would do the printing deed
With this checkin, the responsibility of generating a value string is centralized in the data formatter (as it should, and already is for summaries)
This change is good practice per se, and should also enable us to extend the type format mechanism in a cleaner way

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.

pure virtual base class and made StackFrame a subclass of that. As
I started to build on top of that arrangement today, I found that it
wasn't working out like I intended. Instead I'll try sticking with
the single StackFrame class -- there's too much code duplication to
make a more complicated class hierarchy sensible I think.
llvm-svn: 193983
defines a protocol that all subclasses will implement. StackFrame
is currently the only subclass and the methods that Frame vends are
nearly identical to StackFrame's old methods.
Update all callers to use Frame*/Frame& instead of pointers to
StackFrames.
This is almost entirely a mechanical change that touches a lot of
the code base so I'm committing it alone. No new functionality is
added with this patch, no new subclasses of Frame exist yet.
I'll probably need to tweak some of the separation, possibly moving
some of StackFrame's methods up in to Frame, but this is a good
starting point.

Fixing a problem where ValueObject::GetPointeeData() would not accept "partial" valid reads (i.e. asking for 10 items and getting only 5 back)
While suboptimal, this situation is not a flat-out failure and could well be caused by legit scenarios, such as hitting a page boundary
Among others, this allows data formatters to print char* buffers allocated under libgmalloc

One of the things that dynamic typing affects is the count of children a type has
Clear out the flag that makes us blindly believe the children count when a dynamic type change is detected
llvm-svn: 193663
This commit reimplements the TypeImpl class (the class that backs SBType) in terms of a static,dynamic type pair
This is useful for those cases when the dynamic type of an ObjC variable can only be obtained in terms of an "hollow" type with no ivars
In that case, we could either go with the static type (+iVar information) or with the dynamic type (+inheritance chain)
With the new TypeImpl implementation, we try to combine these two sources of information in order to extract as much information as possible
This should improve the functionality of tools that are using the SBType API to do extensive dynamic type inspection
llvm-svn: 193564
Constant ValueObjects should clear their description as well as their summary. Rationale being that both can depend on deeper-than-constified data
so both are subject to changes in "unpredictable" ways
To see this consider repeatedly po'ing a persistent variable of a type whose -description result changes at each invocation
llvm-svn: 192259
Formats (as in "type format") are now included in categories
The only bit missing is caching formats along with synthetic children and summaries, which might be now desirable
llvm-svn: 192217
DumpValueObject() 2.0
This checkin restores pre-Xcode5 functionality to the "po" (expr -O) command:
- expr now has a new --description-verbosity (-v) argument, which takes either compact or full as a value (-v is the same as -vfull)
When the full mode is on, "po" will show the extended output with type name, persistent variable name and value, as in
(lldb) expr -O -v -- foo
(id) $0 = 0x000000010010baf0 {
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
When -v is omitted, or -vcompact is passed, the Xcode5-style output will be shown, as in
(lldb) expr -O -- foo
{
1 = 2;
2 = 3;
}
- for a non-ObjectiveC object, LLDB will still try to retrieve a summary and/or value to display
(lldb) po 5
5
-v also works in this mode
(lldb) expr -O -vfull -- 5
(int) $4 = 5
On top of that, this is a major refactoring of the ValueObject printing code. The functionality is now factored into a ValueObjectPrinter class for easier maintenance in the future
DumpValueObject() was turned into an instance method ValueObject::Dump() which simply calls through to the printer code, Dump_Impl has been removed
Test case to follow
llvm-svn: 191694
Now that SBValues can be setup to ignore synthetic values, this is no longer necessary, and so m_suppress_synthetic_value can go away
Another Hack Bites the Dust
llvm-svn: 191338
SVN r189964 provided a sample Python script to inspect unordered(multi){set|map} with synthetic children, contribued by Jared Grubb
This checkin converts that sample script to a C++ provider built into LLDB
A test case is also provided
llvm-svn: 190564
A long time ago we start with clang types that were created by the symbol files and there were many functions in lldb_private::ClangASTContext that helped. Later we create ClangASTType which contains a clang::ASTContext and an opauque QualType, but we didn't switch over to fully using it. There were a lot of places where we would pass around a raw clang_type_t and also pass along a clang::ASTContext separately. This left room for error.
This checkin change all type code over to use ClangASTType everywhere and I cleaned up the interfaces quite a bit. Any code that was in ClangASTContext that was type related, was moved over into ClangASTType. All code that used these types was switched over to use all of the new goodness.

Fixing an issue where formats would not propagate from parents to children in all cases
Details follow:
an SBValue has children and those are fetched along with their values
Now, one calls SBValue::SetFormat() on the parent
Technically, the format choices should propagate onto the children (see ValueObject::GetFormat())
But if the children values are already fetched, they won't notice the format change and won't update themselves
This commit fixes that by making ValueObject::GetValueAsCString() check if any format change intervened from the previous call to the current one
A test case is also added
llvm-svn: 183030
Enabling LLDB to write to variables that are stored in registers
Previously, this would not work since the Value's Context loses the notion of the data being in a register
We now store an "original" context that comes out of DWARF parsing, and use that context's data when attempting a write
llvm-svn: 180803
variables in the ValueObject code:
- Report an error if the variable does not have
a valid address.
- Return the contents of the data to GetData(),
even if the value is constant.
<rdar://problem/13690855>
llvm-svn: 179876
lets a ValueObject's contents be set from raw
data. This has certain limitations (notably,
registers can only be set to data that is as
large as the register) but will be useful for
the new Materializer.
I also exposed this interface through SBValue.
I have added a testcase that exercises various
special cases of SBValue::SetData().
