[lldb-dev] enumerating the SBTypes from an SBModule

[Greg Clayton]

I added the ability to get a list of types from a SBModule or SBCompileUnit.

The new functions are:

//------------------------------------------------------------------
/// Get all types matching \a type_mask from debug info in this
/// module.
///
/// @param[in] type_mask
///     A bitfield that consists of one or more bits logically OR'ed
///     together from the lldb::TypeClass enumeration. This allows
///     you to request only structure types, or only class, struct
///     and union types. Passing in lldb::eTypeClassAny will return
///     all types found in the debug information for this module.
///
/// @return
///     A list of types in this module that match \a type_mask
//------------------------------------------------------------------
lldb::SBTypeList
SBModule::GetTypes (uint32_t type_mask)


//------------------------------------------------------------------
/// Get all types matching \a type_mask from debug info in this
/// compile unit.
///
/// @param[in] type_mask
///    A bitfield that consists of one or more bits logically OR'ed
///    together from the lldb::TypeClass enumeration. This allows
///    you to request only structure types, or only class, struct

///    all types found in the debug information for this compile

/// @return

//------------------------------------------------------------------
lldb::SBTypeList
SBCompileUnit::GetTypes (uint32_t type_mask = lldb::eTypeClassAny);

This lets you request types by filling out a mask that contains one or more bits from the lldb::TypeClass enumerations, so you can only get the types you really want.


Now you can do things like:

(lldb) script
module = lldb.target.module['a.out']
types = module.GetTypes()
for t in types:
  print t

Or you can iterate through the compile units and get the types for each individual compile unit:

(lldb) script
module = lldb.target.module['a.out']
for i in range(module.GetNumCompileUnits()):
  cu = module.GetCompileUnitAtIndex(i)
  types = cu.GetTypes()
  for t in types:
    print t
