| 12 | The import command defined by importcmd.py can be used in LLDB to load a Python |
| 13 | module given its full pathname. |
| 14 | The command works by extending Python's sys.path lookup to include the path to |
| 15 | the module to be imported when required, and then going through the language |
| 16 | ordinary 'import' mechanism. In this respect, modules imported from LLDB command |
| 17 | line should not be distinguishable from those imported using the script interpreter. |
| 18 | The following terminal output shows an interaction with lldb using this new command. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Enrico-Granatas-MacBook-Pro:Debug enricogranata$ ./lldb |
| 21 | (lldb) script import importcmd |
| 22 | (lldb) command script add import -f importcmd.pyimport_cmd |
| 23 | (lldb) import ../demo.py |
| 24 | (lldb) script demo.test_function('hello world') |
| 25 | I am a Python function that says hello world |
| 26 | (lldb) quit |

| 29 | Of course, the commands to import the importcmd.py module and to define the import |
| 30 | command, can be included in the .lldbinit file to make this feature available at |
| 31 | debugger startup |
