Firebug 1.5 for Firefox 3.6 activityDistributor

[gmariani]

I know you guys are wrapping up 1.5 but i wanted to know if the Net
Panel will be adding support for activityDistributor/
nsIHttpActivityObserver ? I know in Firebug 1.4 (and maybe it was just
Firefox 3.5), I am unable to grab the server response data.

With Firefox 3.6's addition of the activityDistributor, it's now easy
to do this. I'd love to be able to do this natively through the Net
Panel listener. Rather than having to build my own observer and
somehow patch it into the Net Panel.

Firebug 1.5 supports Fiirefox 3.5 (&3.6), so no. Firebug 1.6 work will
begin shortly with features that require Firefox 3.6.

Firebug 1.5 actually contains support for activity-observer and
utilizes it mainly to get
precise timings for the Net panel timeline (you need to run with
Firefox 3.6).

See my blog post:

As far as the network response is concerned, you should be able to get
it
using the Net panel listeners even in Firefox 3.5.

I am only able to grab the network response text. Not the binary data,
unless I'm overlooking something. Could you point me in the right
direction to look?
