Your request is extremely vague. Could you be more specific in what you are needing?

You can show a 3D object's wire-frame by calling dbSetObjectFrame(obj_id, 1);

Beyond that, I have no idea what you are needing.

He probably means something like in TRON, a outline with glow, or like the outline in Anime-like games.

I've not yet used shaders myself yet but I guess a toon shader might be the solution...

If you make an extra "layer" over the model with backfaces facing outward, then the model gains an "outline" that doesn't require shaders.
