I seem to recall that Debugger.Source would solve this issue as well. James, can you confirm/deny this?

Comment 2

[James Long (:jlongster)]

I'm not sure my Debugger.Source will fix this. Once you open the devtools, the source is always listed, regardless if you close them, reload, and open again. This seems to be connected with how we lazily start the devtools somehow. My script will fix all eval'ed scripts and make them show up, but this is just a normal script, so I don't see how anything will change.

I have noticed this happened sometimes though, and I need to reload the page to get sources to show. Worth having a bug about it.

I'd assume this is because the Source is GCed before the devtools is opened?

Yes, it is.
