[lldb] Refactor LookupInfo object to be per-language (#168797) Some months ago, the LookupInfo constructor logic was refactored to not depend on language specific logic, and use languages plugins instead. In this refactor, when the language type is unknown, a single LookupInfo object will handle multiple languages. This doesn't work well, as multiple languages might want to configure the LookupInfo object in different ways. For example, different languages might want to set the m_lookup_name differently from each other, but the previous implementation would pick the first name a language provided, and effectively ignored every other language. Other fields of the LookupInfo object are also configured in incompatible ways. This approach doesn't seem to be a problem upstream, since only the C++/Objective-C language plugins are available, but it broke downstream on the Swift fork, as adding Swift to the list of default languages when the language type is unknown breaks C++ tests. This patch makes it so instead of building a single LookupInfo object for multiple languages, one LookupInfo object is built per language instead. rdar://159531216
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.
