The entire public API is exposed through script bridging which + allows LLDB to use an embedded Python script interpreter, as well as + having a Python module named "lldb" which can be used from Python + on the command line. This allows debug sessions to be scripted. It also + allows powerful debugging actions to be created and attached to a variety + of debugging workflows.</p> + </div> + <h1 class ="postheader">Linux Status</h1> + <div class="postcontent"> + <p> LLDB is improving on Linux. While the debugserver has not been ported + (to enable remote debugging) Linux is nearing feature completeness with Darwin + to debug x86_64 programs, and is partially working with i386 programs. + ARM architectures on Linux are untested. + For more details, see the Features by OS section below. + </div> + <h1 class ="postheader">FreeBSD Status</h1> + <div class="postcontent"> + <p> LLDB on FreeBSD lags behind the Linux implementation but is improving rapidly. + For more details, see the Features by OS section below. + </div> + <h1 class ="postheader">Features by OS</h1> + <div class="postcontent"> + <p> The table below shows a summary of the features that are available + on several platforms.
