Starting firefox -venkman

Rate this Message:
From what I understand starting firefox -venkman should only start
the debugger and not the browser UI, thus allowing the debugging of extension loading. When I do this both the debugger and the browser UI is started, not what I expected. Is there something I'm doing in correctly or is my expectation incorrect.

You might have to run Venkman once and exit before this will work. Venkman has to set some bit to start JSD on startup and it can't do that until its had control once. Or so I guess from the name of the method, jsd.initAtStartup. > - You could be really fast in setting up breakpoints. > - You could create breakpoints when you feel like it while Firefox is up > normally, and tell Venkman to load them automatically (check "Save > Break/Watch settings" in the File menu). ...and then exit and restart (in case that wasn't clear). > > ~ Gijs _______________________________________________ dev-apps-js-debugger mailing list dev-apps-js-debugger@... https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-apps-js-debugger |

Because "firefox.exe -venkman" causes the venkman command line handler to run which opens a venkman window and this happens before the firefox window opens? > > If he means "before the services of said extension" than no, they > initialize first. I guessing that "firefox.exe -venkman" means that at least the command line handlers have to run, and thus the components in each extension would have to be registered to see if they have command line handlers. Therefore at least we compile extensions/*/components/*.js and call all the NSGetModule() and run command line handlers? In the order given by that funky m- rule? Is that stuff what you mean by services? > > ~Justin Wood (Callek) _______________________________________________ dev-apps-js-debugger mailing list dev-apps-js-debugger@... https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-apps-js-debugger |

But apparently that isn't possible. Anyway for those interested, I resolved my problem. Turns out that the MacOS version of FF doesn't seem to handle the <menubar> at line 10 & 28 and if present no buttons are displayed. This xul does work on PC and Linux: 1 <?xml version="1.0"?> 2 <?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?> 3 <overlay id="sample" 4 xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"> 5 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/ll.js"/> 6 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/ajax_queue.js"/> 7 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/sr.js"/> 8 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/prefutils.js"/> 9 <toolbaritem id="urlbar-container"> 10 <menubar position="1" id="SparkRocketMenuBar"> 11 <!--style="width: 50px; height: 32px" style attribute for buttons --> 12 <button type="menu" 13 id="SparkMenu" 14 image="chrome://sparkrocket/content/spark-16x16.png" 15 label="Sparks"> 16 <menupopup id="SparkMenuPopup"> 17 <menuitem label="SparkRocket" oncommand="sr_goto('http://www.sparkrocket.com');"/> 18 </menupopup> 19 </button> 20 <button type="menu" 21 id="RocketMenu" 22 image="chrome://sparkrocket/content/rocket-16x16.png" 23 label="Rockets"> 24 <menupopup id="RocketMenuPopup"> 25 <menuitem label="No friends to target yet"/> 26 </menupopup> 27 </button> 28 </menubar> 29 </toolbaritem> 30 </overlay> If delete the menubar tags and use position in the buttons I get what I want, two buttons as the first items in the url-container: 1 <?xml version="1.0"?> 2 <?xml-stylesheet href="chrome://global/skin/" type="text/css"?> 3 <overlay id="sample" 4 xmlns="http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul"> 5 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/ll.js"/> 6 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/ajax_queue.js"/> 7 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/sr.js"/> 8 <script type="application/x-javascript" src="chrome://sparkrocket/content/prefutils.js"/> 9 <toolbaritem id="urlbar-container"> 10 11 <!--style="width: 50px; height: 32px" style attribute for buttons --> 12 <button position="1" type="menu" 13 id="SparkMenu" 14 image="chrome://sparkrocket/content/spark-16x16.png" 15 label="Sparks"> 16 <menupopup id="SparkMenuPopup"> 17 <menuitem label="SparkRocket" oncommand="sr_goto('http://www.sparkrocket.com');"/> 18 </menupopup> 19 </button> 20 <button position="2" type="menu" 21 id="RocketMenu" 22 image="chrome://sparkrocket/content/rocket-16x16.png" 23 label="Rockets"> 24 <menupopup id="RocketMenuPopup"> 25 <menuitem label="No friends to target yet"/> 26 </menupopup> 27 </button> 28 29 </toolbaritem> 30 </overlay> _______________________________________________ dev-apps-js-debugger mailing list dev-apps-js-debugger@... https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-apps-js-debugger |
