20139 2008-07-23 02:28:58 -0700 debugger keyword does not work in eval code 2009-10-29 07:58:57 -0700 1 1 1 Unclassified WebKit Web Inspector (Deprecated) 528+ (Nightly build) All All RESOLVED WORKSFORME InRadar P2 Enhancement --- 1 jl webkit-unassigned ddkilzer jl oliver pmuellr timothy oldest_to_newest 86709 0 jl 2008-07-23 02:28:58 -0700 The new break on "debugger" keyword feature only works if the JavaScript code belongs to an actual file. The debugger does not seem to be able to work with code that has been read in with eval. Unfortunately most of the code of our JavaScript framework (Bindows) is evaled in which renders the webkit debugger nearly useless to us. We have the same problem with FireFox but in Internet Explorer they have solved this with the Microsoft Script editor. Could something please be done towards this? 86789 1 mrowe 2008-07-23 15:58:33 -0700 <rdar://problem/6097996> 86794 2 timothy 2008-07-23 16:17:16 -0700 We do support debugging eval code, you can step into the eval call and debut the parsed script. This is just a bug with the debugger keyword. 86825 3 oliver 2008-07-24 00:39:28 -0700 Curious, i cannot immediately see why the debugger keyword would not work inside the eval :-/ 86829 4 jl 2008-07-24 01:13:07 -0700 Oliver: Do you mean that you need a test case or that you can't immediately see the root of the problem? 86830 5 oliver 2008-07-24 01:35:50 -0700 I meant i can't immediately see the source of the problem -- i'm assuming eval("debugger;") will be sufficient to test? 92912 6 oliver 2008-09-26 05:23:20 -0700 I can't reproduce this -- can anyone else? 92928 7 jl 2008-09-26 07:49:18 -0700 In Bindows with a late webkit version the debugger keyword breakpoints the code at the correct location and I can step but I am in the wrong file (I'm in the launcher html file) and I cant see the code that is actually executing. So I did some initial work on trying to repro this outside of Bindows - unsuccessful so far. I will continue and get back to you with more research as soon as possible. 95153 8 jl 2008-10-13 02:08:05 -0700 I have tried to reproduce this in a clean scenario but I am unable to. Is it ok if I send you a link via email with code that reproduces this problem? Best regards Johan Lund Bindows Team 95162 9 oliver 2008-10-13 10:20:23 -0700 @Johan: sure, but i can't guarantee i'll get to this in the immediate future 95252 10 jl 2008-10-14 01:04:11 -0700 No worries. I have emailed a download link and instructions. Thanks... 158884 11 pmuellr 2009-10-29 07:20:11 -0700 (In reply to comment #10) > No worries. I have emailed a download link and instructions. I tried a simple test of this and was able to get the debugger to stop with the debugger "command" in an eval'd string. WORKSFORME Where's the test case? Or since this is >1 year old, maybe there was a problem but it's since been fixed? 158895 12 timothy 2009-10-29 07:58:57 -0700 Please reopen if this still happens with a test case.
