I think, the processing involves a lot of overhead and not all variables in 
the source code will be available when the program stops at a breakpoint. All 
variables valid at the current stop position are available via the 
local/global variables viewer, which are optimized to limit the data volume 
exchanged between debugger backend and the IDE.
