It shouldn't break anything?
It wouldn't be that good API then, because the function takes an optional argument that changes the behavior significantly: - when it's provided the function returns a single result(which means we don't really need `SymbolContextList`) - when it's NULL, the function will find all the matches https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/102835 _______________________________________________ lldb-commits mailing list lldb-commits@lists.llvm.org https://lists.llvm.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lldb-commits
