This is #4852, against the right branch this time 🙂
swiftlang/swift#59657 updates the representation of Any and AnyObject in the Swift frontend to use
ExistentialType
. Typealiases likeAnyObject
can be used as existential types, which are represented asExistentialType(TypeAliasType)
, so LLDB should look through to an existential type's constraint when checking whether it has a typealias.
