The two are different when it comes to the ABI. Adding a new function just adds a new symbol. Adding a default argument to an existing function adds a new symbol (the same one as in the first case, as default arguments aren't part of the ABI -- that can be both good and bad, but I digress..) *and* removes an existing one. That means the code built against the old lldb wouldn't be able to run against the new one (without recompiling). That's what we want to preserve. https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/99736 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
