Can IntelliJ show variable values rather than type when debugging via SDM?

[Richard Wallis]

Trying out IntelliJ and the one thing keeping me from switching is that the debugger shows a variable's type instead of value.

eg: an ArrayList<String> containing "Foo" and "BAR" will show as ArrayList$ instead of ["FOO", "BAR"]

Has anyone got the debugger to show the value of toString() instead of the varaible's type?

It should be possible because SDBG manages it in eclipse using the callToString() method in it's WebkitRuntime class:

Only manually. Right click on a node in the variables section and select "evaluate expression...". In the new window add .toString() to the expression and hit evaluate.
