             Bug #: 11619
           Summary: Allow creating SBData values from arrays or primitives
                    in Python
           Product: lldb
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Macintosh
        OS/Version: MacOS X
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P
         Component: All Bugs
        AssignedTo: lldb-commits at cs.uiuc.edu
        ReportedBy: nathanhowell at hotmail.com
    Classification: Unclassified


I'd like to create string literals or other values that do not exist within the
inferior process, perhaps like this:

char_ptr_type = type.GetBasicType(lldb.eBasicTypeChar).GetPointerType()
data = target.GetDataFromCString('some string literal')
value = obj.CreateValueFromData('name', data, char_ptr_type)

The idea would be to allow a SyntheticChildrenProvider to fashion a new value
that better represents the original child value being inspected.
