[lldb-dev] issues with python scripting in LLDB

[michael]

I have a script, something like:

#########################
import lldb
import sys
import os
import time

def StepOver(debugger, args, result, dict):
   arg_split = args.split(" ")
   print type(arg_split)
   count = int(arg_split[0])
   for i in range(0,count):
     lldb.thread.StepOver(lldb.eOnlyThisThread)
     print "step<%d>"%i
     time.sleep(.75)
##########################

I also have an command shortcut assigned to call it.

I have 2 issues:
1. I have to sleep in the loop (for some period over some threshold),
     or the script seems to lock up.
     Is this due to some race condition ?
2. how can I force a console flush inside the loop, currently the console
     is deferred until the script returns. Is there some sort of yield
     or console flush command?

Thanks,
