practicing lldb python programming without xcode or mac
I would like to practice debugging in lldb, especially how to use python scripts with lldb for viewing contents of variables of a C program, but I don't have access to Xcode or an Apple computer. Is it still possible to run lldb and practice it's python scripting? Searching for lldb download takes me here and it doesn't look like there is a windows installer available.
Am I going about this the right way, or is it impossible to practice lldb and it's python scripting without an Apple computer?
The target computer is Windows 7 32 bit.

I would suggest you run a Linux VM which makes it easy to work with LLVM in general and lldb in particular.

I was hoping if there was a way to do it without using VM's.

If you haven’t found a way, it might be time thinking about your constraints and which you can relax. Using a VM is easy, and free. And makes no discernible difference as in both environments you won’t get Xcode like GUI integration.

Python on windows gives me a headache. I have never used LLVM on windows at all, so I really can't guess as to the difficulty.

Sorry I forgot to link my other question. This is the other question I was talking about: stackoverflow.com/questions/53331618/… . It's actually not about windows. It's about the python scripting in lldb in xcode on mac. I need to find out how to display an array's elements, without any formatting (formatting such as the array indices displayed by default by the expression command)

I figured it was a more general question and is probably easy for someone who as experience with python on lldb
