Debugging firebug itself

[Max Vaysburd]

Hi everyone.

I'm looking on pointers of how to debug firebug itself. I get script
errors in my application that suggest a crash coming from spy.js.
Here's an example stack I get:

Message: Script error. Url: chrome://firebug/content/spy.js Line: 0
Call Stack ---------- Error()@:0 window$onerror("Script
error.","chrome://firebug/content/spy.js",0)@https://
r3.res.outlook.com/owa/14.1.165.0/scripts/premium/uglobal.js:1
function Array$get_Length() { return this.length; } function Array
$get_Item(a) { return this[a]; } function Array$get_Enumerator()
{ return new (Owa.Collections.ListEnumerator)(this); } function Array
$remove(b) { var a = this.indexOf(b); a > -1 &&
this.splice(a, 1); return a > -1; } function Array$removeAt(a) { if
(a < this.length) { this.splice(a, 1); return true; } return
false; } function Array$add(a) { this.push(a); } function Array
$clone() { return this.slice(); } Detailed Call Stack
------------------- Dump Event ----------

Much obliged,
Max.

We use chromebug and the FBTrace console to debug Firebug.

Crash? As in firefox terminates instantly and you get the crash
reporter dialog?

Line 0? Anyway I suggest you use the tracing version 1.5X.4 or 1.6X.
0a10 from http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug. Open Firebug Icon
Menu > Tracing > Options > ERRORS.

Thanks John.

Regarding the use of word "crash" I misspoke. Firefox doesn't
terminate and I should have used "script error" instead. Microsoft's
Outlook Web App has error handling which catch all script errors and
presents user with a dialog to sent the stack to the development
team. The stack from my previous message was extracted from such
dialog. Line 0 probably refers to I'm going to grab
http://getfirebug.com/releases/firebug/1.5X/firebug-1.5X.4.xpi and see
what pops up through the tracing console. In Firebug Console options
I enabled "Show Chrome Errors" and "Show JavaScriptErrors".

Max.
