I couldnt find a way to load core files from python. Is there a way?
The attached patch solves my problem. I tried it only on Linux and a elf-core.
Thanks
Samuel
Here is the test program
$cat ./test.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
import lldb
import sys, os
exe = sys.argv[1]
core = sys.argv[2]
Create a new debugger instance
debugger = lldb.SBDebugger.Create()
Create a target from a file and arch
print “Creating a target for ‘%s’” % exe
target = debugger.CreateTarget(exe)
if target:
process = target.LoadCore(core)
if process:
state = process.GetState ()
thread = process.GetThreadAtIndex (0)
if thread:
for i in range(thread.GetNumFrames()):
frame = thread.GetFrameAtIndex (i)
if frame:
print frame
And output
$./test.py ./test/a.out ./test/core
Creating a target for ‘./test/a.out’
