Right, so I have my own debug VM (64 bit Pharo Cog) and a debug version of libclang.
I can attach with lldb and set a breakpoint on clang_getRangeStart Then I debug the test that gets diagnostics and I see that the CXSourceRange has data. Then I step into 'range start' and I land in my breakpoint for clang_getRangeStart and I can see that the argument to the function - supposedly a CXSourceRange passed by value - is all zero'd memory. So it appears that in the 64bit VM, structs passed by value doesn't work right. I've traced back up the stack and I confess the marshaling code is totally beyond my comprehension. This is what I was able to get: Process 1126 stopped * thread #1, queue = 'com.apple.main-thread', stop reason = breakpoint 1.1 2.1 frame #0: 0x000000011e33136b libclang.dylib`::clang_getRangeStart(range=CXSourceRange @ 0x00007fff55f4e380) at CXSourceLocation.cpp:89 86 87 CXSourceLocation clang_getRangeStart(CXSourceRange range) { 88 // Special decoding for CXSourceLocations for CXLoadedDiagnostics. -> 89 if ((uintptr_t)range.ptr_data[0] & 0x1) { 90 CXSourceLocation Result = { { range.ptr_data[0], nullptr }, 0 }; 91 return Result; 92 } Target 0: (Pharo) stopped.
