It might make sense to implement a few "convienience methods"
on the debugger side also. One which leaps to mind particularly would
be to address thread by name for instance rather than a thread_id, as
this lasts beyond individual instantiations of the JVM. Clearly with
the get_Threads method this could also be implemented in lisp, but it
would probably work quicker on the debug side.
Other things that might be useful would be show_threads in
class, which would show all the threads currently with the class in
their stack. Again this could be calculated in lisp also, but would
probably be quicker jdebug side.
Of course I realise that this is a bit of an overall
design question. As jdebug will be tightly integrated into JDE how
much to do in java/lisp is a fairly open question (which is easier,
more cross platform, faster etc etc etc).
