vscode for stm32cubeide debug with jlink

In the debug mode of JLink, the usage method of LiveWatch cannot be found. Only STLink has this function. How long will it take for the relevant functions of jLink to be updated?

I really enjoy using this extension plugin provided by your official side. I hope you can let me know! thank you

Live Watch variables are not yet supported for Segger J-Link. This feature is part of the roadmap, but no release date is available at this time.
