lldb: Attach `lldb` to a running process with a given PID.
$ lldb -p ${pid}
try on your machine

The command "lldb -p ${pid}" is used to attach the LLDB debugger to a running process with a specific process ID (pid).

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • "lldb": This is the command to launch the LLDB debugger.
  • "-p": This option is used to specify the process to attach to.
  • "${pid}": This is a placeholder for the process ID. You should replace "${pid}" with the actual process ID of the target process you want to debug.

When you run this command, LLDB will attach to the specified process and allow you to debug it. You can then set breakpoints, inspect variables, and perform other debugging operations using the LLDB commands and features.

This explanation was created by an AI. In most cases those are correct. But please always be careful and never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
