.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
\fBlldb\fP [\fIoptions\fP] \fIexecutable\fP
.fi
.sp
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBlldb\fP is a next generation, high\-performance debugger. It is built as
a set of reusable components which highly leverage existing libraries in the
larger LLVM Project, such as the Clang expression parser and LLVM disassembler.
.sp
\fBlldb\fP is the default debugger in Xcode on macOS and supports
debugging C, Objective\-C and C++ on the desktop and iOS devices and simulator.
.sp
All of the code in the LLDB project is available under the Apache 2.0 License
with LLVM exceptions.

.SH EXAMPLES
.sp
The debugger can be started in several modes.
.sp
Passing an executable as a positional argument prepares lldb to debug the given
executable. To disambiguate between arguments passed to lldb and arguments
passed to the debugged executable, arguments starting with a \- must be passed
after \-\-.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-\-arch x86_64 /path/to/program program argument \-\- \-\-arch arvm7
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
For convenience, passing the executable after \-\- is also supported.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-\-arch x86_64 \-\- /path/to/program program argument \-\-arch arvm7
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Passing one of the attach options causes \fBlldb\fP to immediately attach
to the given process.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-p <pid>
lldb \-n <process\-name>
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Passing \-\-repl starts \fBlldb\fP in REPL mode.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-r
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Passing \-\-core causes \fBlldb\fP to debug the core file.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-c /path/to/core
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Command options can be combined with these modes and cause \fBlldb\fP to
run the specified commands before or after events, like loading the file or
crashing, in the order provided on the command line.
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
lldb \-O \(aqsettings set stop\-disassembly\-count 20\(aq \-o \(aqrun\(aq \-o \(aqbt\(aq
lldb \-S /source/before/file \-s /source/after/file
lldb \-K /source/before/crash \-k /source/after/crash
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
Note: In REPL mode no file is loaded, so commands specified to run after
loading the file (via \-o or \-s) will be ignored.
.SH USING LLDB
.sp
In \fBlldb\fP there is a help command which can be used to find
descriptions and examples of all \fBlldb\fP commands. To get help on
"breakpoint set" you would type "help breakpoint set".
.sp
There is also an apropos command which will search the help text of all
commands for a given term ‐‐ this is useful for locating a command by topic.
For instance, "apropos breakpoint" will list any command that has the word
"breakpoint" in its help text.
.SH CONFIGURATION FILES
.sp
\fBlldb\fP reads things like settings, aliases and commands from the
\&.lldbinit file.
.sp
First, \fBlldb\fP will try to read the application specific init file
whose name is ~/.lldbinit followed by a "\-" and the name of the current
program. This would be ~/.lldbinit\-lldb for the command line \fBlldb\fP
and ~/.lldbinit\-Xcode for Xcode. If there is no application specific init
file, \fBlldb\fP will look for an init file in the home directory.
If launched with a \fI\%REPL\fP option, it will first look for a REPL configuration
file, specific to the REPL language. The init file should be named as follow:
\fB\&.lldbinit\-<language>\-repl\fP (i.e. \fB\&.lldbinit\-swift\-repl\fP). If this file doesn\(aqt
exist, or \fBlldb\fP wasn\(aqt launch with \fI\%REPL\fP, meaning there is neither
a REPL init file nor an application specific init file, \fBlldb\fP will fallback to
the global ~/.lldbinit.
.sp
Secondly, it will look for an .lldbinit file in the current working directory.
For security reasons, \fBlldb\fP will print a warning and not source this
file by default. This behavior can be changed by changing the
target.load\-cwd\-lldbinit setting.
.sp
To always load the .lldbinit file in the current working directory, add the
following command to ~/.lldbinit:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
settings set target.load\-cwd\-lldbinit true
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.sp
To never load the .lldbinit file in the current working directory and silence
the warning, add the following command to ~/.lldbinit:
.INDENT 0.0
.INDENT 3.5
settings set target.load\-cwd\-lldbinit false
.UNINDENT
.UNINDENT
.SH SEE ALSO
.sp
The LLDB project page \fI\%https://lldb.llvm.org\fP has many different resources
for \fBlldb\fP users ‐‐ the gdb/lldb command equivalence page
\fI\%https://lldb.llvm.org/use/map.html\fP can be especially helpful for users
coming from gdb.
