================= LLDB Vim Frontend

Prerequisites

This plugin is known to work with the following flavours of Vim:

• Linux (tested on Ubuntu 12.04/12.10):

  • vim/gvim (from vim-gnome package version 7.3)

• macOS (tested on Monterey)

  • Vim command-line (8.2 from homebrew)
  • MacVim 7.3

To install the plugin, ensure you have

• a working version of lldb on your path, or the environment variable LLDB pointing to the lldb binary you would like to use.
• a python3-enabled vim (check with "vim --version | grep python3")

Installation

1. Install the Vim pathogen plugin (it keeps installed plugins organized):

   https://github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen

Or, for the impatient:

mkdir -p ~/.vim/autoload ~/.vim/bundle;
curl -Sso ~/.vim/autoload/pathogen.vim
https://raw.github.com/tpope/vim-pathogen/master/autoload/pathogen.vim

2. Symlink (or copy) ~/.vim/bundle/vim-lldb to this directory:

ln -sf /utils/vim-lldb ~/.vim/bundle/vim-lldb

3. Update your help-tags. Start vim, do:

   :Helptags

4. Have fun!
