Click on the Favorites:Differential side bar item, and then on Create Diff in the URH Corner of the window. If you make your diff with: svn diff --diff-cmd=diff -x -U999999 or the git equivalent, then they are much easier to review. Once you have the diff, select make a new revision from the popup and fill out the form. > On Jun 29, 2019, at 11:57 PM, Vangelis Tsiatsianas <vangeli...@icloud.com> > wrote: > > Thank you very much for your replies! > > I took a look at ThreadPlanTracer and found out that the crash reason was the > call of a virtual method during object construction: > > virtual Process.UpdateThreadList() > └── ProcessGDBRemote.UpdateThreadList() > └── new ThreadGDBRemote() > └── new Thread() > └── new ThreadPlanBase() > ├── new ThreadPlanAssemblyTracer() > └── virtual ThreadPlanAssemblyTracer::EnableTracing() > └── virtual ThreadPlanTracer::TracingStarted() > └── virtual Thread::GetRegisterContext() ← Virtual > method call of Thread under construction! > └── __cxa_pure_virtual() > > I believe I fixed the bug and also tried to make the tracing API a little > better.

My intention was that you would derive from ThreadPlanTracer, and then you could do whatever reporting you wanted in the ShouldStop method of the Tracer. Kind of like what the ThreadPlanAssemblyTracer does. But I was mostly thinking of this as an internal facility. To make it available from LLDB's public face, you could do allow folks to write a scripted thread plan. But it might be simpler to just register a callback and have the extant ThreadPlanAssemblyTracer class call it in its Log method. Jim > > You may find the relevant patch attached.
