How to Debug a C# program with LLDB?
I found few resources online which may have lead me astray, as I can't get even basic functionality out of LLDB.
I used the dotnet-sos tool to supposedly automatically load SOS into LLDB and I attached LLDB to my program's process, but I am getting errors when trying to use any command:
error: 'bpmd' is not a valid command.
error: 'clrstack' is not a valid command.
Its behaving as if SOS isn't installed, I think? I really don't know what is going on, searching for these errors gives me nothing which is insane, usually there would be GitHub issues or Stack Overflow posts. I think I'm about to never touch C# ever again.
which OS? i'll assume linux for my first answer. check the .llldbinit file. see if the dotnet-sos put itself in there.
Yes I'm on linux, my .lldbinit does have a path to the libsosplugin.so file, and I've confirmed the file is real.
try manually loading the plugin.
in an lldb session i THINK its - plugin load ~/.dotnet/sos/libsosplugin.so (i looked up the path since i am on the phone)
That worked! Though I had to use the absolute path rather than the tilde. Is lldb not properly sourcing the config file?
its possible. just to make sure, you started a new session after installing dotnet-sso? what is the path in the .lldbinit file?
Yeah it was a new session. The .lldbinit file is in my home folder, at ~/
i mean inside the init file, is the fotnet-sdo path right? i think the init file isnt loading it correctly
it only has the plugin load command and
setsymbolserver -msLate to the party but:
