Hi,

-stack-list-locals doesn't return an numchild element. How can the IDE
know if a local
is has children?

If there are children, they are listed in value:
^done,locals=[{name="list",value="QList = {[0] = \"hello\"}"}]

Is it a good idea to parse the value with an regular expression to
find out if there are children?

Or is there a better way to get numchild?

Niko
