As Jim said, we have many different kinds of breakpoints and breakpoints can have N SBBreakpointLocations and that number can change as your process runs and more shared libraries are loaded.
If you set a source file and line breakpoint to begin with, then iterating over the locations is the best way to see what you ended up with. bp = target.BreakpointCreateByLocation("/tmp/main.cpp", 12) for bp_loc in bp: addr = bp_loc.GetAddress() line_entry = addr.GetLineEntry() file_spec = line_entry.GetFileSpec() line = line_entry.GetLine() column = line_entry.GetColumn() If you just want the breakpoint source file, line and column as a string value, just run str() on the line_entry: >>> bp = lldb.target.BreakpointCreateByLocation("main.cpp", 6) >>> for l in bp: ... print(l.GetAddress().GetLineEntry()) ... /Users/gclayton/Documents/src/args/main.cpp:6:14 It will print everything out for you into a single string. Note the print() statement above calls str() on "l.GetAddress().GetLineEntry()" for you.
