These are called "debugger visualizations" or "debugger -views". - -The Windows debuggers (WinDbg\CDB) support defining custom debugger visualizations using -the `Natvis` framework. To use Natvis, developers write XML documents using the natvis -schema that describe how debugger types should be displayed with the `.natvis` extension. -(See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/debugger/create-custom-views-of-native-objects?view=vs-2019) -The Natvis files provide patterns which match type names a description of how to display -those types. - -The Natvis schema can be found either online (See: https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/cpp/natvis#_schema) -or locally at `\Xml\Schemas\1033\natvis.xsd`. - -The GNU debugger (GDB) supports defining custom debugger views using Pretty Printers. -Pretty printers are written as python scripts that describe how a type should be displayed -when loaded up in GDB/LLDB. (See: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Pretty-Printing.html#Pretty-Printing) -The pretty printers provide patterns, which match type names, and for matching -types, describe how to display those types. (For writing a pretty printer, see: https://sourceware.org/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb/Writing-a-Pretty_002dPrinter.html#Writing-a-Pretty_002dPrinter). - -### Embedding Visualizers - -Through the use of the currently unstable `#[debugger_visualizer]` attribute, the `smallvec` -crate can embed debugger visualizers into the crate metadata. - -Currently the two types of visualizers supported are Natvis and Pretty printers. - -For Natvis files, when linking an executable with a crate that includes Natvis files, -the MSVC linker will embed the contents of all Natvis files into the generated `PDB`. - -For pretty printers, the compiler will encode the contents of the pretty printer -in the `.debug_gdb_scripts` section of the `ELF` generated. - -### Testing Visualizers - -The `smallvec` crate supports testing debugger visualizers defined for this crate. The entry point for -these tests are `tests/debugger_visualizer.rs`. These tests are defined using the `debugger_test` and -`debugger_test_parser` crates. The `debugger_test` crate is a proc macro crate which defines a -single proc macro attribute, `#[debugger_test]`. For more detailed information about this crate, -see https://crates.io/crates/debugger_test. The CI pipeline for the `smallvec` crate has been updated -to run the debugger visualizer tests to ensure debugger visualizers do not become broken/stale. - -The `#[debugger_test]` proc macro attribute may only be used on test functions and will run the -function under the debugger specified by the `debugger` meta item. - -This proc macro attribute has 3 required values: - -1. The first required meta item, `debugger`, takes a string value which specifies the debugger to launch. -2. The second required meta item, `commands`, takes a string of new line (`\n`) separated list of debugger -commands to run. -3. The third required meta item, `expected_statements`, takes a string of new line (`\n`) separated list of -statements that must exist in the debugger output. Pattern matching through regular expressions is also -supported by using the `pattern:` prefix for each expected statement. - -#### Example: - -```rust -#[debugger_test( - debugger = "cdb", - commands = "command1\ncommand2\ncommand3", - expected_statements = "statement1\nstatement2\nstatement3")] -fn test() { - -} -``` - -Using a multiline string is also supported, with a single debugger command/expected statement per line: - -```rust -#[debugger_test( - debugger = "cdb", - commands = " -command1 -command2 -command3", - expected_statements = " -statement1 -pattern:statement[0-9]+ -statement3")] -fn test() { - -} -``` - -In the example above, the second expected statement uses pattern matching through a regular expression -by using the `pattern:` prefix. - -#### Testing Locally - -Currently, only Natvis visualizations have been defined for the `smallvec` crate via `debug_metadata/smallvec.natvis`, -which means the `tests/debugger_visualizer.rs` tests need to be run on Windows using the `*-pc-windows-msvc` targets. -To run these tests locally, first ensure the debugging tools for Windows are installed or install them following -the steps listed here, [Debugging Tools for Windows](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/drivers/debugger/). -Once the debugging tools have been installed, the tests can be run in the same manner as they are in the CI -pipeline. - -#### Note - -When running the debugger visualizer tests, `tests/debugger_visualizer.rs`, they need to be run consecutively -and not in parallel. This can be achieved by passing the flag `--test-threads=1` to rustc. This is due to -how the debugger tests are run. Each test marked with the `#[debugger_test]` attribute launches a debugger -and attaches it to the current test process. If tests are running in parallel, the test will try to attach -a debugger to the current process which may already have a debugger attached causing the test to fail. - -For example: - -``` -cargo test --test debugger_visualizer --features debugger_visualizer -- --test-threads=1 -``` -- cgit v1.2.3
