/**
 * A debug model presentation may implement this interface to override standard
 * annotations used to display instruction pointers for stack frames.
 * <p>
 * A client has several options when overriding default instruction pointer
 * annotations, and the debug platform uses the following prioritized order when
 * computing an annotation for a stack frame.
 * </p>
 * <ol>
 * <li>Specify the annotation object to use. This is done by returning a
 * non-<code>null</code> value from
 * <code>getInstructionPointerAnnotation(..)</code>.</li>
 * <li>Specify an <code>annotationType</code> extension to use. This is done by
 * returning a non-<code>null</code> value from
 * <code>getInstructionPointerAnnotationType(..)</code>. When specified, the
 * annotation type controls the image displayed via its associated
 * <code>markerAnnotationSpecification</code>.</li>
 * <li>Specify the image to use. This is done by returning a
 * non-<code>null</code> value from
 * <code>getInstructionPointerImage(..)</code>.</li>
 * </ol>
 * <p>
 * Additionally, when specifying an annotation type or image the text for the
 * instruction pointer may be specified by returning a non-<code>null</code>
 * value from <code>getInstructionPointerText(..)</code>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * These methods are called when the debugger has opened an editor to display
 * source for the given stack frame. The image will be positioned based on stack
 * frame line number and character ranges.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * By default, the debug platform uses different annotations for top stack
 * frames and non-top stack frames in a thread. The default platform annotations
 * are contributed as <code>annotationType</code> extensions with the
 * identifiers
 * <code>IDebugUIConstants.ANNOTATION_INSTRUCTION_POINTER_CURRENT</code> and
 * <code>IDebugUIConstants.ANNOTAION_INSTRUCTION_POINTER_SECONDARY</code>.
 * </p>
 * <p>
 * Clients implementing a debug model presentation may also implement this
 * interface.
 * </p>
