With this patch, whenever we emit a `DW_AT_type` for some declaration
and the type is a template class with a `clang::PreferredNameAttr`, we
will emit the typedef that the attribute refers to instead. I.e.,
```
0x123 DW_TAG_variable
DW_AT_name "var"
DW_AT_type (0x123 "basic_string<char>")
0x124 DW_TAG_structure_type
DW_AT_name "basic_string<char>"
```
...becomes
```
0x123 DW_TAG_variable
DW_AT_name "var"
DW_AT_type (0x124 "std::string")
0x124 DW_TAG_structure_type
DW_AT_name "basic_string<char>"
0x125 DW_TAG_typedef
DW_AT_name "std::string"
DW_AT_type (0x124 "basic_string<char>")
```
We do this by returning the preferred name typedef `DIType` when
we create a structure definition. In some cases, e.g., with `-gmodules`,
we don't complete the structure definition immediately but do so later
via `completeClassData`, which overwrites the `TypeCache`. In such cases
we don't actually want to rewrite the cache with the preferred name. We
handle this by returning both the definition and the preferred typedef
from `CreateTypeDefinition` and let the callee decide what to do with
it.
Essentially we set up the types as:
```
TypeCache[Record] => DICompositeType
ReplaceMap[Record] => DIDerivedType(baseType: DICompositeType)
```
For now we keep this behind LLDB tuning.
**Testing**
- Added clang unit-test
- `check-llvm`, `check-clang` pass
- Confirmed that this change correctly repoints
`basic_string` references in some of my test programs.
- Will add follow-up LLDB API tests

//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// // C Language Family Front-end //===----------------------------------------------------------------------===// Welcome to Clang. This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages (C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM compiler infrastructure project. Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of different source-level tools. One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer. If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read the relevant web sites. Here are some pointers: Information on Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/ Building and using Clang: http://clang.llvm.org/get_started.html Clang Static Analyzer: http://clang-analyzer.llvm.org/ Information on the LLVM project: http://llvm.org/ If you have questions or comments about Clang, a great place to discuss them is on the Clang forums: https://discourse.llvm.org/c/clang/ If you find a bug in Clang, please file it in the LLVM bug tracker: http://llvm.org/bugs/
