Does anyone know how CDT gets the type info for the Variable View? I'm wondering if it is handled by the view itself, I can't find any API to provide type info is you are extending a Variable View from CDT. If anyone knows many thanks.

Thanks,

George F.

If you are looking at CDT's default integration of GDB (uses DSF), the variables view gets the type in:
VariableVMNode.updatePropertiesInSessionThread() which calls fillExpressionDataProperties(), which uses IExpressionDMData.getTypeName().

The relevant plugins are
org.eclipse.cdt.dsf
org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.ui
org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb
org.eclipse.cdt.dsf.gdb.ui
