[lldb-dev] Python script stuck when trying to continue process in lldb

[Jason Dinh Ba Thanh]

Should it be:

target = *debugger*.CreateTarget (filename, triple, platform, False, error)

I tried that and get error on this line
    process = target.ConnectRemote(debugger, "connect://localhost:1234",
"gdb-remote", error)

File "lldbControl.py", line 54, in <module>
    process = target.ConnectRemote(debugger, "connect://localhost:1234",
"gdb-remote", error)
  File
"/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/SharedFrameworks/LLDB.framework/Versions/A/Resources/Python/lldb/__init__.py",
line 7773, in ConnectRemote
    return _lldb.SBTarget_ConnectRemote(self, *args)

This is an iPhone 4 running iOS  7 so I guess it's armv7, right?
