[lldb] Fix lookup of types in anonymous namespaces with -gsimple-template-names (#123054) Anonymous namespaces are supposed to be optional when looking up types. This was not working in combination with -gsimple-template-names, because the way it was constructing the complete (with template args) name scope (i.e., by generating thescope as a string and then reparsing it) did not preserve the information about the scope kinds. Essentially what the code wants here is to call `GetTypeLookupContext` (that's the function used to get the context in the "regular" code path), but to embelish each name with the template arguments (if they don't have them already). This PR implements exactly that by adding an argument to control which kind of names are we interested in. This should also make the lookup faster as it avoids parsing of the long string, but I haven't attempted to benchmark that. I believe this function can also be used in some other places where we're manually appending template names, but I'm leaving that for another patch.
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.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
