Added a new API call to help efficiently determine if a SBValue could have children:
bool
SBValue::MightHaveChildren ();
This is inteneded to be used bui GUI programs that need to show if a SBValue needs a disclosure triangle when displaying a hierarchical type in a tree view without having to complete the type (by calling SBValue::GetNumChildren()) as completing the type is expensive.

Given our implementation of ValueObjects we could have a scenario where a ValueObject has a dynamic type of Foo* at one point, and then its dynamic type changes to Bar*
If Bar* has synthetic children enabled, by the time we figure that out, our public API is already vending SBValues wrapping a DynamicVO, instead of a SyntheticVO and there was
no trivial way for us to change the SP inside an SBValue on the fly
This checkin reimplements SBValue in terms of a wrapper, ValueImpl, that allows this substitutions on-the-fly by overriding GetSP() to do The Right Thing (TM)
As an additional bonus, GetNonSyntheticValue() now works, and we can get rid of the ForceDisableSyntheticChildren idiom in ScriptInterpreterPython
Lastly, this checkin makes sure the synthetic VOs get the correct m_value and m_data from their parents (prevented summaries from working in some cases)
llvm-svn: 166426
Refactorings of watchpoint creation APIs so that SBTarget::WatchAddress(), SBValue::Watch(), and SBValue::WatchPointee()
now take an additional 'SBError &error' parameter (at the end) to contain the reason if there is some failure in the
operation. Update 'watchpoint set variable/expression' commands to take advantage of that.
Update existing test cases to reflect the API change and add test cases to verify that the SBError mechanism works for
SBTarget::WatchAddress() by passing an invalid watch_size.
llvm-svn: 157964
A new setting enable-synthetic-value is provided on the target to disable this behavior.
There also is a new GetNonSyntheticValue() API call on SBValue to go back from synthetic to non-synthetic. There is no call to go from non-synthetic to synthetic.
The test suite has been changed accordingly.
Fallout from changes to type searching: an hack has to be played to make it possible to use maps that contain std::string due to the special name replacement operated by clang
Fixing a test case that was using libstdcpp instead of libc++ - caught as a consequence of said changes to type searching
llvm-svn: 153495
Adding new API calls to SBValue to be able to retrieve the associated formatters
Some refactoring to FormatNavigator::Get() in order to shrink its size down to more manageable terms (a future, massive, refactoring effort will still be needed)
Test cases added for the above
llvm-svn: 150784
lldb.SBValueList now exposes the len() method and also allows item access:
lldb.SBValueList[<int>] - where <int> is an integer index into the list, returns a single lldb.SBValue which might be empty if the index is out of range
lldb.SBValueList[<str>] - where <str> is the name to look for, returns a list() of lldb.SBValue objects with any matching values (the list might be empty if nothing matches)
lldb.SBValueList[<re>] - where <re> is a compiles regular expression, returns a list of lldb.SBValue objects for containing any matches or a empty list if nothing matches
lldb.SBFrame now exposes:
lldb.SBFrame.variables => SBValueList of all variables that are in scope
lldb.SBFrame.vars => see lldb.SBFrame.variables
lldb.SBFrame.locals => SBValueList of all variables that are locals in the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.arguments => SBValueList of all variables that are arguments in the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.args => see lldb.SBFrame.arguments
lldb.SBFrame.statics => SBValueList of all static variables
lldb.SBFrame.registers => SBValueList of all registers for the current frame
lldb.SBFrame.regs => see lldb.SBFrame.registers
Combine any of the above properties with the new lldb.SBValueList functionality
and now you can do:
y = lldb.frame.vars['rect.origin.y']
or
vars = lldb.frame.vars
for i in range len(vars):
print vars[i]
Also expose "lldb.SBFrame.var(<str>)" where <str> can be en expression path
for any variable or child within the variable. This makes it easier to get a
value from the current frame like "rect.origin.y". The resulting value is also
not a constant result as expressions will return, but a live value that will
continue to track the current value for the variable expression path.
lldb.SBValue now exposes:
lldb.SBValue.unsigned => unsigned integer for the value
lldb.SBValue.signed => a signed integer for the value
llvm-svn: 149684
a watchpoint for either the variable encapsulated by SBValue (Watch) or the pointee
encapsulated by SBValue (WatchPointee).
Removed SBFrame::WatchValue() and SBFrame::WatchLocation() API as a result of that.
Modified the watchpoint related test suite to reflect the change.
Plus replacing WatchpointLocation with Watchpoint throughout the code base.
There are still cleanups to be dome. This patch passes the whole test suite.
Check it in so that we aggressively catch regressions.

Fixed up many API calls to not be "const" as const doesn't mean anything to
most of our lldb::SB objects since they contain a shared pointer, auto_ptr, or
pointer to the types which circumvent the constness anyway.
llvm-svn: 139428
- introduced two new classes ValueObjectConstResultChild and ValueObjectConstResultImpl: the first one is a ValueObjectChild obtained from
a ValueObjectConstResult, the second is a common implementation backend for VOCR and VOCRCh of method calls meant to read through pointers stored
in frozen objects ; now such reads transparently move from host to target as required
- as a consequence of the above, removed code that made target-memory copies of expression results in several places throughout LLDB, and also
removed code that enabled to recognize an expression result VO as such
- introduced a new GetPointeeData() method in ValueObject that lets you read a given amount of objects of type T from a VO
representing a T* or T[], and doing dereferences transparently
in private layer it returns a DataExtractor ; in public layer it returns an instance of a newly created lldb::SBData
- as GetPointeeData() does the right thing for both frozen and non-frozen ValueObject's, reimplemented ReadPointedString() to use it
en lieu of doing the raw read itself
- introduced a new GetData() method in ValueObject that lets you get a copy of the data that backs the ValueObject (for pointers,
this returns the address without any previous dereferencing steps ; for arrays it actually reads the whole chunk of memory)
in public layer this returns an SBData, just like GetPointeeData()
- introduced a new CreateValueFromData() method in SBValue that lets you create a new SBValue from a chunk of data wrapped in an SBData
the limitation to remember for this kind of SBValue is that they have no address: extracting the address-of for these objects (with any
of GetAddress(), GetLoadAddress() and AddressOf()) will return invalid values
- added several tests to check that "p"-ing objects (STL classes, char* and char[]) will do the right thing
Solved a bug where global pointers to global variables were not dereferenced correctly for display
New target setting "max-string-summary-length" gives the maximum number of characters to show in a string when summarizing it, instead of the hardcoded 128
Solved a bug where the summary for char[] and char* would not be shown if the ValueObject's were dumped via the "p" command
Removed m_pointers_point_to_load_addrs from ValueObject. Introduced a new m_address_type_of_children, which each ValueObject can set to tell the address type
of any pointers and/or references it creates. In the current codebase, this is load address most of the time (the only notable exception being file
addresses that generate file address children UNLESS we have a live process)
Updated help text for summary-string
Fixed an issue in STL formatters where std::stlcontainer::iterator would match the container's synthetic children providers
Edited the syntax and help for some commands to have proper argument types
llvm-svn: 139160
The synthetic children providers now use the new (safer) APIs to get the values of objects
As a side effect, fixed an issue in ValueObject where ResolveValue() was not always updating the value before reading it
llvm-svn: 136861
the SBType implementation classes.
Fixed LLDB core and the test suite to not use deprecated SBValue APIs.
Added a few new APIs to SBValue:
int64_t
SBValue::GetValueAsSigned(int64_t fail_value=0);
uint64_t
SBValue::GetValueAsUnsigned(uint64_t fail_value=0)
llvm-svn: 136829
- Completely new implementation of SBType
- Various enhancements in several other classes
Python synthetic children providers for std::vector<T>, std::list<T> and std::map<K,V>:
- these return the actual elements into the container as the children of the container
- basic template name parsing that works (hopefully) on both Clang and GCC
- find them in examples/synthetic and in the test suite in functionalities/data-formatter/data-formatter-python-synth
New summary string token ${svar :
- the syntax is just the same as in ${var but this new token lets you read the values
coming from the synthetic children provider instead of the actual children
- Python providers above provide a synthetic child len that returns the number of elements
into the container
Full bug fix for the issue in which getting byte size for a non-complete type would crash LLDB
Several other fixes, including:
- inverted the order of arguments in the ClangASTType constructor
- EvaluationPoint now only returns SharedPointer's to Target and Process
- the help text for several type subcommands now correctly indicates argument-less options as such
llvm-svn: 136504
for child in value:
# do something with the child value
and SBValue.linked_list_iter():
for task in task_head.linked_list_iter('next', eol_test):
# visit each item in the linked list
