Integrating eclipse with a different debugger [message #739435]

We have a debugger developed in our company for our own proprietary scripting language. This debugger has the same look and feel like the gdb debugger available in C. It starts a command prompt and has options for adding breakpoints, printing values, method callflow etc. Now I have to integrate this debugger with eclipse. Basically eclipse should invoke this debugger which is installed in the same host and the developer should be able to work seamelessly.

I have read some articles on how to create a debugger in eclipse but did-not find any material as to how Eclipse should be "integrated" with a 3rd party debugger. Does eclipse provide any standard APIs, hooks, plugins to go about the same? Kindly advise.
