we were setting a forward-declared Objective-C class
type as being completed using an ExternalSemaSource,
but this is neither legal nor necessary.

the way LLDB lazily gets complete definitions for types within the debug info.
When we run across a class/struct/union definition in the DWARF, we will only
parse the full definition if we need to. This works fine for top level types
that are assigned directly to variables and arguments, but when we have a
variable with a class, lets say "A" for this example, that has a member:
"B *m_b". Initially we don't need to hunt down a definition for this class
unless we are ever asked to do something with it ("expr m_b->getDecl()" for
example). With my previous approach to lazy type completion, we would be able
to take a "A *a" and get a complete type for it, but we wouldn't be able to
then do an "a->m_b->getDecl()" unless we always expanded all types within a
class prior to handing out the type. Expanding everything is very costly and
it would be great if there were a better way.
A few months ago I worked with the llvm/clang folks to have the
ExternalASTSource class be able to complete classes if there weren't completed
yet:
class ExternalASTSource {
....
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::TagDecl *Tag);
virtual void
CompleteType (clang::ObjCInterfaceDecl *Class);
};
This was great, because we can now have the class that is producing the AST
(SymbolFileDWARF and SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap) sign up as external AST sources
and the object that creates the forward declaration types can now also
complete them anywhere within the clang type system.
This patch makes a few major changes:
- lldb_private::Module classes now own the AST context. Previously the TypeList
objects did.
- The DWARF parsers now sign up as an external AST sources so they can complete
types.
- All of the pure clang type system wrapper code we have in LLDB (ClangASTContext,
ClangASTType, and more) can now be iterating through children of any type,
and if a class/union/struct type (clang::RecordType or ObjC interface)
is found that is incomplete, we can ask the AST to get the definition.
- The SymbolFileDWARFDebugMap class now will create and use a single AST that
all child SymbolFileDWARF classes will share (much like what happens when
we have a complete linked DWARF for an executable).
We will need to modify some of the ClangUserExpression code to take more
advantage of this completion ability in the near future. Meanwhile we should
be better off now that we can be accessing any children of variables through
pointers and always be able to resolve the clang type if needed.

Anytime we had a valid python list that was trying to go from Python down into
our C++ API, it was allocating too little memory and it ended up smashing
whatever was next to the allocated memory.
Added typemap conversions for "void *, size_t" so we can get
SBProcess::ReadMemory() working. Also added a typemap for "const void *, size_t"
so we can get SBProcess::WriteMemory() to work.
Fixed an issue in the DWARF parser where we weren't correctly calculating the
DeclContext for all types and classes. We now should be a lot more accurate.
Fixes include: enums should now be setting their parent decl context correctly.
We saw a lot of examples where enums in classes were not being properly
namespace scoped. Also, classes within classes now get properly scoped.
Fixed the objective C runtime pointer checkers to let "nil" pointers through
since these are accepted by compiled code. We also now don't call "abort()"
when a pointer doesn't validate correctly since this was wreaking havoc on
the process due to the way abort() works. We now just dereference memory
which should give us an exception from which we can easily and reliably
recover.

by LLDB. Instead of being materialized into the input structure
passed to the expression, variables are left in place and pointers
to them are materialzied into the structure. Variables not resident
in memory (notably, registers) get temporary memory regions allocated
for them.
Persistent variables are the most complex part of this, because they
are made in various ways and there are different expectations about
their lifetime. Persistent variables now have flags indicating their
status and what the expectations for longevity are. They can be
marked as residing in target memory permanently -- this is the
default for result variables from expressions entered on the command
line and for explicitly declared persistent variables (but more on
that below). Other result variables have their memory freed.
Some major improvements resulting from this include being able to
properly take the address of variables, better and cleaner support
for functions that return references, and cleaner C++ support in
general. One problem that remains is the problem of explicitly
declared persistent variables; I have not yet implemented the code
that makes references to them into indirect references, so currently
materialization and dematerialization of these variables is broken.
llvm-svn: 123371
function and also hooked up better error reporting for when things fail.
Fixed issues with trying to display children of pointers when none are
supposed to be shown (no children for function pointers, and more like this).
This was causing child value objects to be made that were correctly firing
an assertion.
llvm-svn: 121841
values or persistent expression variables. Now if an expression consists of
a value that is a child of a variable, or of a persistent variable only, we
will create a value object for it and make a ValueObjectConstResult from it to
freeze the value (for program variables only, not persistent variables) and
avoid running JITed code. For everything else we still parse up and JIT code
and run it in the inferior.
There was also a lot of clean up in the expression code. I made the
ClangExpressionVariables be stored in collections of shared pointers instead
of in collections of objects. This will help stop a lot of copy constructors on
these large objects and also cleans up the code considerably. The persistent
clang expression variables were moved over to the Target to ensure they persist
across process executions.
Added the ability for lldb_private::Target objects to evaluate expressions.
We want to evaluate expressions at the target level in case we aren't running
yet, or we have just completed running. We still want to be able to access the
persistent expression variables between runs, and also evaluate constant
expressions.
Added extra logging to the dynamic loader plug-in for MacOSX. ModuleList objects
can now dump their contents with the UUID, arch and full paths being logged with
appropriate prefix values.
Thread hardened the Communication class a bit by making the connection auto_ptr
member into a shared pointer member and then making a local copy of the shared
pointer in each method that uses it to make sure another thread can't nuke the
connection object while it is being used by another thread.
Added a new file to the lldb/test/load_unload test that causes the test a.out file
to link to the libd.dylib file all the time. This will allow us to test using
the DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable after moving libd.dylib somewhere else.

very minor changes, changing how we get the target
type from a TypedefType, adding a parameter to
EnumDecl::Create(), and other minor tweaks.

information. Previously, "operator[]" was not
being recognized because the detector was looking
for "operator " as a prefix. Now we handle both
cases.

because the diagnostic client for one of the AST
contexts is NULL. Now we provide a form of Miranda

that the result of an expression should be coerced to
a specific type. Also made breakpoint conditions pass
in the bool type for this type.
The expression parser ignores this indication for now.

cases when getting the clang type:
- need only a forward declaration
- need a clang type that can be used for layout (members and args/return types)
- need a full clang type
This allows us to partially parse the clang types and be as lazy as possible.
The first case is when we just need to declare a type and we will complete it
later. The forward declaration happens only for class/union/structs and enums.
The layout type allows us to resolve the full clang type _except_ if we have
any modifiers on a pointer or reference (both R and L value). In this case
when we are adding members or function args or return types, we only need to
know how the type will be laid out and we can defer completing the pointee
type until we later need it. The last type means we need a full definition for
the clang type.
Did some renaming of some enumerations to get rid of the old "DC" prefix (which
stands for DebugCore which is no longer around).
Modified the clang namespace support to be almost ready to be fed to the
expression parser. I made a new ClangNamespaceDecl class that can carry around
the AST and the namespace decl so we can copy it into the expression AST. I
modified the symbol vendor and symbol file plug-ins to use this new class.

a pseudo terminal even when the process being attached to.
Fixed a possible crasher in the in:
bool
ClangASTContext::IsAggregateType (clang_type_t clang_type);
It seems that if you pass in a record decl, enum decl, or objc class decl
and ask it if it is an aggregate type, clang will crash.
llvm-svn: 118404
don't crash if we disable logging when some code already has a copy of the
logger. Prior to this fix, logs were handed out as pointers and if they were
held onto while a log got disabled, then it could cause a crash. Now all logs
are handed out as shared pointers so this problem shouldn't happen anymore.
We are also using our new shared pointers that put the shared pointer count
and the object into the same allocation for a tad better performance.
llvm-svn: 118319
all of the calls inlined in the header file for better performance.
Fixed the summary for C string types (array of chars (with any combo if
modifiers), and pointers to chars) work in all cases.
Fixed an issue where a forward declaration to a clang type could cause itself
to resolve itself more than once if, during the resolving of the type itself
it caused something to try and resolve itself again. We now remove the clang
type from the forward declaration map in the DWARF parser when we start to
resolve it and avoid this additional call. This should stop any duplicate
members from appearing and throwing all the alignment of structs, unions and
classes.
llvm-svn: 117437
Specifically, we fixed handling of the objc_class
built-in type, which allowed us to pass
named Objective-C objects to functions,
call variable list -t on objects safely, etc.
llvm-svn: 117249
debug information and you evaluated an expression, a crash would occur as a
result of an unchecked pointer.
Added the ability to get the expression path for a ValueObject. For a rectangle
point child "x" the expression path would be something like: "rect.top_left.x".
This will allow GUI and command lines to get ahold of the expression path for
a value object without having to explicitly know about the hierarchy. This
means the ValueObject base class now has a "ValueObject *m_parent;" member.
All ValueObject subclasses now correctly track their lineage and are able
to provide value expression paths as well.
Added a new "--flat" option to the "frame variable" to allow for flat variable
output. An example of the current and new outputs:
(lldb) frame variable
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffe80
pt = {
x = 2
y = 3
}
rect = {
bottom_left = {
x = 1
y = 2
}
top_right = {
x = 3
y = 4
}
}
(lldb) frame variable --flat
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffe80
pt.x = 2
pt.y = 3
rect.bottom_left.x = 1
rect.bottom_left.y = 2
rect.top_right.x = 3
rect.top_right.y = 4
As you can see when there is a lot of hierarchy it can help flatten things out.
Also if you want to use a member in an expression, you can copy the text from
the "--flat" output and not have to piece it together manually. This can help
when you want to use parts of the STL in expressions:
(lldb) frame variable --flat
argc = 1
argv = 0x00007fff5fbffea8
hello_world._M_dataplus._M_p = 0x0000000000000000
(lldb) expr hello_world._M_dataplus._M_p[0] == '\0'
llvm-svn: 116532
function. It will inspect NAME and do the following:
- if the name contains '(' or starts with "-[" or "+[" then a full name search
will happen to match full function names with args (C++ demangled names) or
full objective C method prototypes.
- if the name contains "::" and no '(', then it is assumed to be a qualified
function name that is in a namespace or class. For "foo::bar::baz" we will
search for any functions with the basename or method name of "baz", then
filter the results to only those that contain "foo::bar::baz". This allows
setting breakpoint on C++ functions and methods without having to fully
qualify all of the types that would appear in C++ mangled names.
- if the name contains ":" (not "::"), then NAME is assumed to be an ObjC
selector.
_ otherwise, we assume just a plain function basename.
Now that "--name" is our "auto" mode, I introduced the new "--basename" option
("breakpoint set --basename NAME") to allow for function names that aren't
methods or selectors, just basenames. This can also be used to ignore C++
namespaces and class hierarchies for class methods.
Fixed clang enumeration promotion types to be correct.
llvm-svn: 116293
being chopped up correctly). The DWARF plug-in also keeps a map of the ObjC
class names to selectors for easy parsing of all class selectors when we parse
the class type.
llvm-svn: 116290
operator naming stuff. We now get the constructor and destructor names right
after passing in the type, and we get the correct conversion operator name
after passing in the return type when getting the DeclarationNameInfo.
llvm-svn: 115398
This gets us the new clang::CXXRecordDecl improvments in clang so that when we
add fields, methods and other things to the clang::CXXRecordDecl, the correct
bits are automatically set by clang::CXXRecordDecl itself instead of having
SEMA and our lldb_private::ClangASTContext functions that create types for
DWARF do it all manually. This allows the clang::ASTContext deep copying of
types to work correctly and it means that the expression parser can now
evaluate expressions in the context of a class method correctly. Previously
when a class was copied from the DWARF generated ASTContext over into the
expression ASTContext, we were losing CXXRecordDecl bits in the conversion
which caused all classes to think they were at offset zero because the the
bools for empty, POD, and others would end up being incorrect.
llvm-svn: 115023
adding methods to C++ and objective C classes. In order to make methods, we
need the function prototype which means we need the arguments. Parsing these
could cause a circular reference that caused an assertion.
Added a new typedef for the clang opaque types which are just void pointers:
lldb::clang_type_t. This appears in lldb-types.h.
This was fixed by enabling struct, union, class, and enum types to only get
a forward declaration when we make the clang opaque qual type for these
types. When they need to actually be resolved, lldb_private::Type will call
a new function in the SymbolFile protocol to resolve a clang type when it is
not fully defined (clang::TagDecl::getDefinition() returns NULL). This allows
us to be a lot more lazy when parsing clang types and keeps down the amount
of data that gets parsed into the ASTContext for each module.
Getting the clang type from a "lldb_private::Type" object now takes a boolean
that indicates if a forward declaration is ok:
clang_type_t lldb_private::Type::GetClangType (bool forward_decl_is_ok);
So function prototypes that define parameters that are "const T&" can now just
parse the forward declaration for type 'T' and we avoid circular references in
the type system.

Error in object runtime language detection code (spurious '; ')
Also replace false by NULL in a place where the compiler expects a pointer instead of a bool.

interface in ClangASTContext. Also added two bool returning functions that
indicated if an opaque clang qual type is a CXX class type, and if it is an
ObjC class type.
Objective C classes now will get their methods added lazily as they are
encountered. The reason for this is currently, unlike C++, the
DW_TAG_structure_type and owns the ivars, doesn't not also contain the
member functions. This means when we parse the objective C class interface
we either need to find all functions whose names start with "+[CLASS_NAME"
or "-[CLASS_NAME" and add them all to the class, or when we parse each objective
C function, we slowly add it to the class interface definition. Since objective
C's class doesn't change internal bits according to whether it has certain types
of member functions (like C++ does if it has virtual functions, or if it has
user ctors/dtors), I currently chose to lazily populate the class when each
functions is parsed. Another issue we run into with ObjC method declarations
is the "self" and "_cmd" implicit args are not marked as artificial in the
DWARF (DW_AT_artifical), so we currently have to look for the parameters by
name if we are trying to omit artificial function args if the language of the
compile unit is ObjC or ObjC++.

- Sema is now exported (and there was much rejoicing.)
- Storage classes are now centrally defined.
Also fixed some bugs that the new LLVM picked up.
