[lldb-dev] MI command for connecting remote target

[Chunseok Lee via lldb-dev]

Is there any MI command for connecting remote target ?

Using platform and target command with lldb, It works fine as follows:

-----host log----------
twoflower at js1-desktop ~/local-hello> ls
a.out*  hello.cpp
twoflower at js1-desktop ~/local-hello> lldb-3.8.1
(lldb) platform select remote-linux
  Platform: remote-linux
 Connected: no
(lldb) platform connect connect://10.113.62.251:1234
  Platform: remote-linux
    Triple: x86_64-*-linux-gnu
OS Version: 3.19.0 (3.19.0-32-generic)
    Kernel: #37~14.04.1-Ubuntu SMP Thu Oct 22 09:41:40 UTC 2015
  Hostname: twoflower
 Connected: yes
WorkingDir: /home/twoflower/remote-hello
(lldb) target create -r /home/twoflower/remote-hello/a.out a.out
Current executable set to 'a.out' (x86_64).
(lldb) b main

(lldb) r

a.out*  hello.cpp
twoflower at twoflower ~/remote-hello> lldb-server-3.8 p --listen "*:1234"
Connection established.
error: lost connection
lldb-server exiting...

--------------------------------------

However, when I try the same thing with lldb-mi, I cannot connect to remote
target as follows:

------- host log --------
twoflower at js1-desktop ~/local-hello> lldb-mi-3.8.1
(gdb)
-target-select remote 10.113.62.251:1234
^error,msg="Command 'target-select'. Current SBTarget is invalid"
(gdb)

------  remote log ------
twoflower at twoflower ~/remote-hello> lldb-server-3.8 p --listen "*:1234"

The remote side seems not to receive any msg at all.
I am not sure that it is proper use for -target-select command.
