Subject: [EXT] Re: [lldb-dev] lldb versus visual studio
Thank you very much, this essentially meets my expectations (no eclipse
debugging with Windows/VC++), i am a little surprised that there is no
working lldb integration for eclipse, is this really the whole truth (or did i
misunderstand)?

Dear lldb-dev community,
First a disclaimer: If my question is inappropriate for this (developer) list
please ignore or guide me to a more appropriate list (it is possibly more of an
end user question).
Is it possible to debug Visual Studio generated (with pdb debug info)
executables (2017 or 2019, C++ only) with lldb?
LLDB does have PDB parsing abilities, though I am unsure how well they
work out of the box with no extra configuration. There are two PDB parsers
in LLDB at the moment, one that uses a DLL from Visual Studio that knows
how to parse a PDB file, and one that tries to parse the PDB file manually. So
if you are natively on windows, I believe you might need to set run the batch
file that sets up environment variables for finding these DLLs. The native PDB
parser should work, but I am not sure if the native version always takes
precedence when running on the Windows OS.
Maybe someone that did the PDB integration could chime in?
And if so is there a full integration into eclipse so i can debug Visual Studio
generated executable with eclipse?
The only integration that I am aware of was one that used lldb-mi, or the
GDB remote machine interface. But the lldb-mi was dropped from the top of
tree LLDB a while ago because it was not tested and was bit rotting.
We do have a lldb-vscode binary that implements the Microsoft Visual
Studio Code DAP (Debug Adaptor Protocol). If there are any Eclipse plug-ins
that integrated with the VS Code DAP plug-ins, that would be the option I
would suggest looking into. Is using Visual Studio Code an option, or only
Eclipse?
The platform in question is Microsoft Windows 10 (recent versions).
Thx in advance
Franz
