Among other things, returning an empty string as the repeat command disables auto-repeat, which can be useful for state-changing commands. There's one remaining refinement to this setup, which is that for parsed script commands, it should be possible to change an option value, or add a new option value that wasn't originally specified, then ask lldb "make this back into a command string". That would make doing fancy things with repeat commands easier. That capability isn't present in the lldb_private side either, however. So that's for a next iteration. I haven't added this to the docs on adding commands yet. I wanted to make sure this was an acceptable approach before I spend the time to do that.
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
