Bug 135742 – REGRESSION(r172094): timeline views are blank after reloading in some situations

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: Web Inspector

[Brian Burg]

Per Joe:

"1. Uncaught exception
showTimelineViewForType called with an undefined type from restoreFromCookie. You mentioned this should fix that problem:

-        if (selectedTimelineViewIdentifier === WebInspector.TimelineSidebarPanel.OverviewTimelineIdentifierCookieValue)
+        if (!selectedTimelineViewIdentifier || selectedTimelineViewIdentifier === WebInspector.TimelineSidebarPanel.OverviewTimelineIdentifierCookieValue)

2. Timeline views showing up completely blank

- reload a page with the inspector open => overview/specific views are blank
- make new selections in the timeline => views are still blank
- switch recordings => causes things to work, but you have to make a new time selection"

(1) is easy enough to fix.

For me, (2) manifests as the overview being shown for timeline 1 when timeline 2 is recording, and clicking on the timeline tree elements shows timelines for timeline 1 instead of 2. So it seems that we are showing timeline 1 by mistake, possibly right after showing the intended timeline. Without a debugger I can't be sure, so I'll try adding some logging.

This works better, but I'm seeing an uncaught exception and some other issues. I'll file bugs.

I'm guessing this issue was just a typo:

-            return candidateCookieKeys.length && candidateObjectCookie.every(function valuesMatchForKey(key) {
+            return candidateCookieKeys.length && candidateCookieKeys.every(function valuesMatchForKey(key) {
