Hi Ben,

I think I already answered this last week:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/lldb-dev/2019-February/014789.html

I don't think you'll get an answer here without posting the
problematic source or giving any more information as I described in my
mail.

Cheers,
- Raphael

I have seen the same issue in 6.0.1 and have reproduced it in 7.0.1.  Any help to diagnose and fix would be greatly appreciated as I am trying to meet a release deadline early next week!

However, when doing 'expr Foobar' there is no output and the operation is completely silent.  It is similar when trying to do 'lldb.frame.EvaluateExpression("Foobar")' in the Python shell as well.  I would expect to get some error output or an SbValue in an error state but no such luck.
