+"""A tool for extracting a list of private lldb symbols to export for MSVC.
+
+When exporting symbols from a dll or exe we either need to mark the symbols in
+the source code as __declspec(dllexport) or supply a list of symbols to the
+linker. Private symbols in LLDB don't explicitly specific dllexport, so we
+automate that by examining the symbol table.
