The LLDB Debugger (LLDB) is the debugger component of the LLVM project. It is built as a set of reusable components which extensively use existing libraries from LLVM, such as the Clang expression parser and LLVM disassembler. LLDB is free and open-source software under the University of Illinois/NCSA Open Source License,[2] a BSD-style permissive software license.
Current state
LLDB supports debugging of programs written in C, Objective-C, and C++. The Swift community maintains a version which adds support for the language. It is known to work on macOS, Linux, FreeBSD, and Windows,[3] and supports i386, x86-64, and ARM instruction sets[4]. LLDB is the default debugger for Xcode 5 and later. It can be used from other IDEs, including Visual Studio Code[5], Eclipse,[6] and CLion.[7]
