those type names are the actual fully-specialized STL type names. I am not sure how to control GDB to stop truncating your string formatting, but after the “…” there actually is more text It looks like what you have is std::unique_ptr<std::vector<std::string> > > and those templates all take more arguments which are defaulted so you don’t have to type them in code - but are reflected in the type name > (gdb) p value.GetTypeName() > $1 = 0x7fffe419be40 > "std::__1::unique_ptr<std::__1::vector<std::__1::basic_string<char, > std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char> >, > std::__1::allocator<std::__1::basic_string<char, > std::__1::char_traits<char"... > (gdb) p value.GetDisplayTypeName() > $2 = 0x7fffe419be40 > "std::__1::unique_ptr<std::__1::vector<std::__1::basic_string<char, > std::__1::char_traits<char>, std::__1::allocator<char> >, > std::__1::allocator<std::__1::basic_string<char, > std::__1::char_traits<char"... > (gdb) > > So, is there any way to convert them into some more human-friendly form? Not currently. What one would have to do is hook into the C++ type printing logic such that it would know to leave out these extra template arguments when they have a default value > > Thanks, > Eugene > _______________________________________________ > lldb-dev mailing list > lldb-dev@lists.llvm.org <mailto:lldb-dev@lists.llvm.org> > http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-dev > <http://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-dev> Thanks, - Enrico 📩 egranata@.com ☎️ 27683
