/**
 * A debug model presentation may implement this interface to override
 * standard annotations used to display instruction pointers for stack frames.
 * 
 * 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.
 * 

 * Specify the annotation object to use. This is done by returning a non-null
 *  value from getInstructionPointerAnnotation(..).
 * Specify an annotationType extension to use.
 *  This is done by returning a non-null value from
 *  getInstructionPointerAnnotationType(..). When specified, the annotation
 *  type controls the image displayed via its associated
 *  markerAnnotationSpecification.
 * Specify the image to use. This is done by returning a non-null
 *  value from getInstructionPointerImage(..).
 * 
 * Additionally, when specifying an annotation type or image the text
 * for the instruction pointer may be specified by returning a non-null
 * value from getInstructionPointerText(..).
 * 
 * 
 * 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.
 * 
 * 
 * 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 annotationType extensions with
 * the identifiers IDebugUIConstants.ANNOTATION_INSTRUCTION_POINTER_CURRENT
 * and IDebugUIConstants.ANNOTAION_INSTRUCTION_POINTER_SECONDARY.
 * 
 * 
 * Clients implementing a debug model presentation may also implement this interface.
 * 
 * @since 3.2
