I can gen up patch that add `--source-file-regex` to all breakpoints, but I also want to use it from python, so that api change might be problematic -- can we add additional default parameters without breaking ABI? Btw, here's an example of how I want to use it -- cuts time to create breakpoint by over half, from 15 seconds down to 7 -- which makes my clangdiag module load much faster: br s -n "DiagnosticsEngine::Report" -f "regex:.*/clang/.*" https://reviews.llvm.org/D39436 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
