Web Inspector: Make WebKitGTK+ port work with Eclipse chromedevtools plugin

• Component: Web Inspector
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Andre Moreira Magalhaes]

The chromedevtools plugin (http://code.google.com/p/chromedevtools/) requires a specific json format to connect to the webkit inspector. 

The current format is missing some required fields that make the connection with the plugin fails.

The format expected by the plugin is as follows:
  {
   "title": "Foo",
   "url": "http://foo",
   "devtoolsFrontendUrl": "/inspector.html?ws=localhost:9222/devtools/page/1",
   "webSocketDebuggerUrl": "ws://localhost:9222/devtools/page/1"
  }

The current format is missing the entries for "devtoolsFrontendUrl" and "webSocketDebuggerUrl".

The plugin also sends a GET request to http://host:port/json instead of http://host:port/pagelist.json when retrieving the pages list.

Patch to follow.

Updated patch against upstream master

Updated patch after http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/155714 - to use Main.html instead of inspector.html on the "devtoolsFrontendUrl" entry on results to /json requests.

Tested chromedevtools 0.3.8 plugin with master at 6fa836 + this updated patch and everything is working fine.
