1761298 - "Ignore a source": I expect an option to UNIGNORE console debugger statements

Status: NEW

(DevTools :: Debugger, defect, P2)

Description

[max.bugzilla]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64; rv:98.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/98.0

Steps to reproduce:

Executing a code from the Console with debugger; in it, opens a "virtual" file "SOURCE" as a tab when the debugger; breakpoint is triggered.

You can "ignore" this SOURCE as the article suggests.

Then close the SOURCE tab.

It's not in the file list in the file/script browser (on the left / in the left pane).

Now Console debugger; statements will be ignored.

Actual results:

All Console "debugger;" statements ignored

Expected results:

Option to UNIGNORE console "debugger;" breakpoints.

We should detect eval coming from the console and either prevent the "ignore line" feature.

We might be able to have a unique URL for those and differentiate them, but that would have wider impacts. So a better long term fix is probably to stop identifying sources only based on their URL.

See if we could look into the url assigned to the evaled expression (https://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/rev/625c3d0c8ae46502aed83f33bd530cb93e926e9f/devtools/server/actors/webconsole/eval-with-debugger.js#109-110,148-152) to discriminate those sources
