1238934 - Debugger has no access to const-declared variables in this page

Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(DevTools :: Debugger, defect)

Description

[Hallvord R. M. Steen [:hallvors]]

1) Load link
2) Open debugger
3) Set it to break on click events
 (Note: the only click event listed seems to be for a very specific node - I think the page has a global click listener too??)
4) Click a link
5) Start stepping. You will see code like 

  const target = closestByTag(e.target, 'A');
  if (!target) {
    return;
  }

  let elem = null;
  const docElement = e.currentTarget;
  const doc = docElement.ownerDocument;

  const tgtLoc = parseUrl(target.href);
  if (!tgtLoc.hash) {
    return;
  }

For some odd reason, the debugger seems not to have access to those const declared variables. Hovering them gives no tooltip, typing them into the console or in "watch" field says they are undefined. This is weird. Perhaps something to do with the page doing "module" stuff, or with sourcemaps??

Hmm, i can't find this code now.

My guess is this is now fixed though.

Feel free to re-open if this is still an issue.

This should be fixed in the new Debugger UI, closing.
