We have a description [here](https://lldb.llvm.org/resources/overview.html), though it leaves a lot of room for interpretation. I think it makes sense for this to be in Utility, but then it should not depend on Target, so that it can be an actual utility that can be reused for more than one purpose. > > > dependency inversion technique > > Like how?

Do you see a better approach? Maybe (to both questions). You may not need to make m_stats a shared pointer if you use the little-known-but-very powerful feature of shared_ptr -- the [aliasing constructor](https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/memory/shared_ptr/shared_ptr). With it, you can create a shared_ptr, which points to a subfield (m_stats), but keeps the whole object alive like so `std::shared_ptr(shared_from_this(), &m_stats)`. A different approach would be to implement the interfaces you need on the Target object itself. It may also be possible to keep a record of the statistics on the inside the object itself, and only later add it to the ones in the Target. This would make sense if there's a natural place where you can insert the call to gather the stats (either when the object is destructed, when the stats are requested, etc.). https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/102223 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
