Python is not all that complicated :)
Here’s an example script that does formatting for arbitrary (pointer,length)
pairs.
Since I was lazy I just decided my string type was going to be a
std::pair<CharType*,LengthType> as in:
std::pair<const char *,unsigned long> Sutf8 {utf8_buf,utf8_size};
std::pair<const char16_t *,unsigned long> Sutf16 {utf16_buf,utf16_size};
std::pair<const char32_t *,unsigned long> Sutf32 {utf32_buf,utf32_size};
It should be easy to adjust the scripts to any type that exposes the same
information through different member variable names.
import lldb
def utf8_summary(value,unused):
pointer = value.GetChildMemberWithName("first").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
length = value.GetChildMemberWithName("second").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
if pointer == 0:
return False
if length == 0:
return '""'
error = lldb.SBError()
string_data = value.process.ReadMemory(pointer, length, error)
return '"%s"' % (string_data) # utf8 is safe to emit as-is on OSX
def utf16_summary(value,unused):
pointer = value.GetChildMemberWithName("first").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
length = value.GetChildMemberWithName("second").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
# assume length is in bytes - if in UTF16 chars, just multiply by 2
if pointer == 0:
return False
if length == 0:
return '""'
error = lldb.SBError()
string_data = value.process.ReadMemory(pointer, length, error)
return '"%s"' % (string_data.decode('utf-16').encode('utf-8')) # utf8
is safe to emit as-is on OSX
def utf32_summary(value,unused):
pointer = value.GetChildMemberWithName("first").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
length = value.GetChildMemberWithName("second").GetValueAsUnsigned(0)
# assume length is in bytes - if in UTF32 chars, just multiply by 4
if pointer == 0:
return False
if length == 0:
return '""'
error = lldb.SBError()
string_data = value.process.ReadMemory(pointer, length, error)
return '"%s"' % (string_data.decode('utf-32').encode('utf-8')) # utf8
is safe to emit as-is on OSX
def __lldb_init_module(debugger,*args):
debugger.HandleCommand('type summary add --python-function
utf81632.utf8_summary "std::__1::pair<const char *, unsigned long>"')
debugger.HandleCommand('type summary add --python-function
utf81632.utf16_summary "std::__1::pair<const char16_t *, unsigned long>"')
debugger.HandleCommand('type summary add --python-function
utf81632.utf32_summary "std::__1::pair<const char32_t *, unsigned long>"')
In the “type summary add” part, you will bind the functions to the type name
depending on the string encoding in use (8, 16 or 32)
The functions itself know to use a pointer,length pair to read the correct
number of bytes, and do the encoding/decoding that is necessary (on OSX,
outputting UTF8 is just safe and will do the right thing, so we are porting any
other encoding to UTF8 for display)
This is what the output looks like:
(std::__1::pair<const char *, unsigned long>) Sutf8 = "blah blah blah けほ"
(std::__1::pair<const char16_t *, unsigned long>) Sutf16 = "blah blah blah けほ"
(std::__1::pair<const char32_t *, unsigned long>) Sutf32 = "blah blah blah けほ"
In case you do not know the “bytes per character” for your type, you should
simply be asking the pointer’s type for its bye size, and switch on that to
pick the right encoding. Or maybe your string type will have a flag telling you
the encoding to use. Either way, it all boils down to one of these three
functions.
Feel free to ping back if you have any further questions!
