Call make from inside LLDB

Question

I noticed that it is possible to call Gnu Make from gdb's prompt, but it does not work with lldb.

Is there a way to call to call make from lldb?

Answer 1

lldb has a platform shell command that you can use to run any single shell command. You could certainly use that to call make.

lldb also has a Python interpreter ( script ) and Python has pretty robust support for interacting with the system. So you can use that for fancier interactions.

It doesn't have support for any particular build system, however.
