Add an option to disable DWARF skeleton CU breadcrumbs for Clang #23779
Conversation
module imports. This is useful when building redistributable static archives, since any pointers into the CLang module cache won't be portable. When using this option the Clang type fallback path in LLDB will be less useful since DWARF type information from those modules will not be available unless another object file compiled without the option imported the same modules. rdar://problem/48827784

You have it as only a frontend option now, implying that it's not stable. Is that the intent? |

I want to indirectly expose this as a driver option, too, but I haven't fully fleshed out the design. What I have in mind is a higher-level |

Gotcha, thanks! Looks reasonable, then—it's just exposing a Clang option as a frontend flag. |

@adrian-prantl This doesn't seem to work in some cases. I've filed a bug with a reproducible example here: https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-13275. |

Thank you, I'll take a look! |
