But for the other patch, if what you said is correct, then I suppose that's correct. I asked Eric Christopher and he said he thought (but wasn't 100% sure) that types were hashed in the accelerator tables by their full name and not their base name. If that is true then it could make exact matches faster. But if it's incorrect then yes, it wouldn't be able to make exact matches faster in DWARF. https://reviews.llvm.org/D53597 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
