[news.eclipse.tools.pdt] Re: Xdebug, view full variable content

[Dave Kelsey <dkel50@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

How big is the string ? It would be interesting to know where the limitation is, whether it is 
xdebug, the PDT code or the eclipse dialog box used to display it.

It would also be good if you could try PDT 2.0. I changed the string implementation in PDT to 
display the current length stored in PDT the actual length of the string and the ability to get a 
byte view of the string.
