[swift-users] LLDB Frontend crash

I have been blocked for several weeks with this LLDB crashing bug, but it
has not been assigned to anyone.
I'm providing repro steps with the LLDB CLI in order to remove any
possibility that it is caused by my IDE. I have had this independently
confirmed by one of the CLion engineers.

I logged the bug: https://bugs.swift.org/browse/SR-5226

I would really appreciate this being fixed so my development can continue.

thanks, Ed


Here is a simple 6 line repro
----------------------------
struct SomeStruct { }

func fetch(outputData: inout SomeStruct?) {
outputData = SomeStruct()
}

var outData: SomeStruct?

fetch(outputData: &outData)

-----------------------------

1) build the project as HelloWorld (or whatever you like)
2) then from the LLDB CLI, set a breakpoint on line 5 and run
3) then examine outputData:  fr var -O outputData


This is the session output
------------------------------

$ lldb HelloWorld
(lldb) target create "HelloWorld"
