| The MI Driver - LLDB Machine Interface V2 (MI) Project Overview |
| ======================================================================== |
| |
| The MI Driver is a stand alone executable that either be used via a |
| client i.e. Eclipse or directly from the command line. |
| |
| For help information on using the MI driver type at the command line: |
| |
| lldb-mi --interpreter --help |
| |
| A blog about the MI Driver is available on CodePlay's website. Although it may not be |
| completely accurate after the recent changes in lldb-mi. |

| |
| In MI mode and invoked with --log option, lldb-mi generates lldb-mi-log.txt |
| This file keeps a history of the MI Driver's activity for one session. It is |
| used to aid the debugging of the MI Driver. It also gives warnings about |
| command's which do not support certain argument or options. |
| |
| Note any command or text sent to the MI Driver in MI mode that is not a command |
| registered in the MI Driver's Command Factory will be rejected and an error message |
| will be generated. |
| |
| All the files prefix with MI are specifically for the MI driver code only. |
| File MIDriverMain.cpp contains the executables main() function. |
