[lldb-dev] `ClangASTSource::IgnoreName` C++ false positives

[Aleksandr Urakov via lldb-dev]

Hello,

I've tried to use a check like `if (m_ast_context->getLangOpts().ObjC)
...`, but it seems that it's always true. How can we else determine here if
the Objective-C case is used? Or if we can't, where can we move `if (name
== id_name || name == Class_name)` to make it Objective-C only? What
regressions Objective-C users would have if we would remove this check from
here?

Regards,
Alex
