Hi,

I'm currently trying to implement a plugin that provides a debugging model
for eclipse. I'm facing a bit of a problem here because the actual
underlying debugger is using asynchronous notification for things like
variables and their values. So I send a request to the debugger to tell me
all variables that are in scope and after some time it calls a callback
function which I implement to notify me of their names,values and so on.

So far I haven't seen a way to do this with the eclipse model, it seems like
all the functions assume that I already know the variables/values when
creating a stackframe and a value can retrieve the sub-variables (in case
of object types) directly without any waiting.

Is there something I'm missing? Maybe there's a way to notify the debug
framework that for a given variable's value there are now more information
available. Or do I really have to pre-fetch all variables before giving the
stackframe to the framework?
