All expressions are compiled in C++ mode and thus the restriction. There are a few solutions: 1 - make expressions match the current language of the current frame. So if your function was a C function, you will be restricted from using C++ in your expression 2 - rename your "this" and benefit from the C++ abilities of the expression parser
I personally really like the ability to use "auto" and all of the C++11 constructs in any expression: (lldb) expr for (auto x = 0; x < my_renamed_this; ++x) { ... } So I see the problem with C expressions, but I would rather not limit you from being able to access your C++ code from a C function by limiting the language based on where you are stopped.
