Project LLDB

[RISHABH GUPTA]

Hello ,

I had a talk with kfunk few days back  and he suggested me the following
things :

1.Use the same GDB code and instead of starting GDB start LLDB.

With this  I was able to start and stop the program(LLDB process) and
nothing else ,so the only command that works is "quit"  since it's the same
for GDB .We will have to handle the MI commands differently other than
that  I  guess  gdb's code can be shared

At present there are many  commands that are given to GDB before giving the
executable hence it's not possible to get LLDB working with all these
commands .I'll try to start LLDB and then provide the target for the
executable and then finally run it to see if the program starts or not (the
program I am starting inside Kdevelop).

2.Investigate what QtCreator is doing

I am still working on this.


Any more suggestions?
Also ,anyone whom I can contact(people wrote gdb's code) for help  ?
Cheers :)
