I've been building tooling for better debugger support for Rust types using debuginfo: https://github.com/samscott89/rudy

I'm planning on doing a proper writeup/release of this soon, but here's the short version: https://gist.github.com/samscott89/e819dcd35e387f99eb7ede156...

- Uses lldb's Python scripting extensions to register commands, and handle memory access. Talks to the Rust process over TCP.

- Supports pretty printing for custom structs + types from standard library (including Vec + HashMap).

- Some simple expression handling, like field access, array indexing, and map lookups.

- Can locate + call methods from binary.
