[lldb-dev] Would it make sense to use lldb as a build in debugger within a Common Lisp READ-EVAL-PRINT-LOOP?

[Christian Schafmeister]

Hi,

I'm writing a Common Lisp compiler and it has a top level read-eval-print loop wherein the use can enter forms and have them compiled and run. 

My compiler generates DWARF metadata and I'm wondering if it makes sense to incorporate lldb as the built in debugger.

I'm on OS X and I know that lldb runs as a separate process from the program that its debugging so I don't see how it would work.

Best,

.Chris.
