[lldb-dev] Difference of behaviour of process.Continue() between MacOSX and Linux

[Pavel Labath via lldb-dev]

Hi,

thanks for your report.

Let me first ask you a question. Which version of lldb are you using?

If it's anything less than 3.7, then I strongly recommend to upgrade,
since linux support was not in a very good state there. If you are
using 3.7 or svn, then the thing you are describing should work. If it
does not please send your script along with your test app (or better
yet, file a bug at <llvm.org/bugs> and I will take a look.

cheers,
pl
