1164667 - Browser debugger never hits for scripts in new windows after open

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools :: Debugger, defect)

Description

[J. Ryan Stinnett [:jryans] (Use needinfo, replies may be slow)]

I can't seem to get any breakpoint to hit in the browser debugger with latest fx-team.

Here's a random sample, but I think almost any file and line would work:

STR:

1. Open Browser Toolbox and go to Debugger
2. Go to the file viewSource.js
3. Add a breakpoint on the first line of the init function
4. In some tab, press Cmd-U to open view source

ER:

The breakpoint should be hit.

AR:

It is not hit.  With dump, I can confirm the line is executed.

Okay, I've traced the issue to a more specific case. 

It seems we can't seem to hit any breakpoints for scripts in new chrome windows that are opened *after* the BT debugger itself is opened.

This does not appear to be a recent regression, as it also fails in current release (37).

Honza, could you try and reproduce?

The breakpoint hits for me properly, closing.
