[lldb-dev] break on exceptions/windows

[Zachary Turner via lldb-dev]

Take a look at ProcessWindowsLive.cpp in Plugins/Process/Windows.  There's
a function called ProcessWindowsLive::OnDebugException.  If you're working
in a fork and you don't intend to upstream any changes, you could just
modify the default case of the switch statement there to not
return ExceptionResult::SendToApplication.

If you wanted to upstream something, you'd probably want a way to specify
what types of exceptions to break on.  For this you'd need to implement a
new command so that you could do something like "break set --exception
0xC0000005" and pass that information to the ProcessWindowsLive plugin
somehow, so that it could decide when to break and when to pass it on to
the application for a second chance.
