I've tried to get de-mangling, line numbers and local variables
working on OS X and Linux using both GDB and LLDB (multiple
versions). My target is compiled with -g. So far, none of the
variants work across all areas, although some produce
de-mangled names and others produce line numbers (but mangled
names).
I believe none of the variants produced local variables - OS X
might have done under one configuration but currently I need to
debug a live process on Linux. This is the most important part
for me, because I can piece together the other information from
other debugger executables if really necessary.
I have recently tried LLDB 3.4.2, LLDB 3.8, GDB 7.6.1 and GDB
7.11. LDC was compiled with LLVM/Clang 3.8. Target program has
some non-D code - compiled using system GCC (4.8.5) - but the
frame in question is D code.
Is there currently any debugger that can show local variables
for LDC 1.0.0 on Linux? What is the most reliable one in
general (to investigate further)?
I've tried to debug DMD generated code with lldbmi2 debugger.
There was a problem with source file / line numbers when
stepping, but I fixed it in lldbmi2.
Cannot get variables working - looks like debug information about
function context is not compatible with llvm-db
