[lldb-dev] Callback API question

[Filipe Cabecinhas]

Hi Dan,

You'll have to implement a bridge method, like I did for
LogOutputCallback and the SBInputReader callback.
Check out scripts/Python/python-wrapper.swig and
scripts/Python/python-typemaps.swig and search for mentions of
LogOutputCallback.

Regards,

  Filipe

If not, is it preferable to create an SBListener for this purpose, or is the "target stop-hook add" command the only way to do what I'm trying to do? I'm trying to avoid using the built-in script interpreter..
