5 Python module which provides implementation for the 'import' command.

11 ================================================================================
12 The import command defined by importcmd.py can be used in LLDB to load a Python
13 module given its full pathname.
14 The command works by extending Python's sys.path lookup to include the path to
15 the module to be imported when required, and then going through the language
16 ordinary 'import' mechanism. In this respect, modules imported from LLDB command
17 line should not be distinguishable from those imported using the script interpreter.
18 The following terminal output shows an interaction with lldb using this new command.

21 (lldb) script import importcmd
22 (lldb) command script add import -f importcmd.pyimport_cmd
23 (lldb) import ../demo.py
24 (lldb) script demo.test_function('hello world')
25 I am a Python function that says hello world

29 Of course, the commands to import the importcmd.py module and to define the import
30 command, can be included in the .lldbinit file to make this feature available at
33 WARNING: The import command defined by importcmd.py is now obsolete
34 In TOT LLDB, you can say:
35 (lldb) command script import ../demo.py
36 (lldb) script demo.test_function('hello world')
37 I am a Python function that says hello world
40 using the native "command script import" command, which offers a superset of what the import command provided by importcmd.py does
