Summary: Special internal debug REPL
Initial Comment:
(This is not a refactoring exactly, but it's not a
user-relevant feature request either.)
When tracking down various problems in DrJava, I've
thought it would be cool to be able to poke around the
running DrJava directly using the interactions pane.
There was such a potential before, when interactions
ran in the same JVM, but not anymore.
We could, however, support (by enabling some secret
config or command-line option) a second REPL, one that
ran inside the DrJava process. Plus, we could define
inside that REPL, as a top-level variable, a pointer to
the MainFrame containing it, as well as to the
GlobalModel inside there. By doing that (and enabling
access to private fields, which requires one method
call in DynamicJava), we would have access to all the
objects comprising DrJava.
