INTRODUCTION *lldb*
Installing this plugin enables a set of commands in Vim to control the
LLDB (http://lldb.llvm.org) debugger.
COMMANDS *lldb-commands*
The LLDB command interpreter is exposed to Vim's command mode using the
':L' prefix. Tab-completion is available and will cycle through commands.
Some commands have modified behaviour in Vim; for example, :Lbreakpoint
with no arguments will set a breakpoint at the current cursor, rather than
printing the standard help information for the LLDB command 'breakpoint'.
*lldb-windows*
In addition to the standard commands available under the LLDB interpreter,
there are also commands to display or hide informational debugger panes.
Windows can be shown or hidden using the ':Lhide <name>' or ':Lshow <name>'
commands.
*lldb-:Lhide*
:Lhide [windowname] Hide informational debugger pane named 'windowname'.
*lldb-:Lshow*
:Lshow [windowname] Show informational debugger pane named 'windowname'.
Possible window name arguments to the Lhide and Lshow commands include:
* backtrace
* breakpoints
* disassembly
* locals
* registers
* threads
*lldb-:Lattach*
:Lattach <process-name> Attach to a process by name.
*lldb-:Ldetach*
:Ldetach Detach from the current process.
*lldb-:Ltarget*
:Ltarget [[create] executable]
Create a target with the specified executable. If
run with a single argument, that argument is assumed
to be a path to the executable to be debugged.
Otherwise, all arguments are passed into LLDB's command
interpreter.
*lldb-:Lstart*
:Lstart Create a process by executing the current target
and wait for LLDB to attach.
*lldb-:Lrun*
:Lrun Create a process by executing the current target
without waiting for LLDB to attach.
*lldb-:Lcontinue*
:Lcontinue Continue execution of the process until the next
breakpoint is hit or the process exits.
*lldb-:Lthread*
:Lthread <args> Passes through to LLDB. See :Lhelp thread.
*lldb-:Lstep*
:Lstep Step into the current function call.
*lldb-:Lstepin*
:Lstepin Step into the current function call.
*lldb-:Lstepinst*
:Lstepinst Step one instruction.
*lldb-:Lstepinstover*
:Lstepinstover Step one instruction, but skip over jump or call
instructions.
*lldb-:Lnext*
:Lnext Step to the next line.
*lldb-:Lfinish*
:Lfinish Step out of the current function.
*lldb-:Lbreakpoint*
:Lbreakpoint [args] When arguments are provided, the lldb breakpoint
command is invoked. If no arguments are provided,
a breakpoint at the location under the cursor.
*lldb-:Lprint*
*lldb-:Lpo*
*lldb-:LpO*
:Lprint <expr> Aliases to the lldb print and po commands. Cursor
:Lpo <expr> word (cursor WORD for LpO) will be used when
:LpO <expr> expression omitted.
MAPPINGS *lldb-mappings*
On Mac OS X (under MacVim) , the following key mappings are available:
<Command-B> Insert a breakpoint at the line under cursor
