189670 - javascript debugger hangs opening js file in jar

Status: RESOLVED INCOMPLETE

(Other Applications Graveyard :: Venkman JS Debugger, defect)

Description

[Myk Melez [:myk] [@mykmelez]]

The JavaScript debugger hangs Mozilla when opening a JS file contained in a JAR.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Load jar:http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/duplicates.jar!/duplicates.xul
2. Open JavaScript debugger.
3. Expand "duplicates.js" tree item in the "Loaded Scripts" panel.

Expected Results: script is displayed in "Source Code" panel and Mozilla
continues to function.

Actual Results: Mozilla hangs.

Tested On: Linux 2003-01-15-08

Additional Information:

When hung, overall system performance seems sluggish, although top says Mozilla
is using little CPU time, but Mozilla obeys polite requests (kill -15) to terminate.

Yes, I found the same behavior starting from 1.5 RC2. 1.5 RC1 works fine but 
CVS HEAD has same bug.

Well, the actual behavior I found is a bit different. 
 
When I start javascript debugger the window appears but it stays grey (no 
content). 
 
It seems javascript debugger doesn't start at all or hangs on an error.

The testcase in comment 0 works perfectly fine here, using Firefox 1.5/Venkman 0.9.87/Windows XP. How about on Linux?
