811364 - "Pause on Exceptions" doesn't seem to work

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools :: Debugger, defect, P2)

Description

[Benjamin Smedberg]

I'm seeing weird behavior with "Pause on exceptions" (mac, yesterday's nightly). I have a dirt-simple testcase:

<script>throw Error("test")</script>

It seems that there are two different behaviors:

1) The very first time I open the debugger and enable "Pause on Exceptions", the page stops loading when it reaches the Error(). But the side panels that show the stack/variables don't slide in. And if I slide them in manually they say "No stacks to display". If I click the Play button, the page finishes loading.

2) If I shift-reload, I very occasionally get behavior #1, but most often it doesn't stop at all.

Attachment: Test case

I just found the time to look at this, and it appears that the behavior is now correct. Not sure which bug fixed it, but it works now. Benjamin can you confirm it with the attached test-case, or provide another one that fails to work for you?

Marking this as worksforme. Please reopen if you have a different set of STR that still exhibits the issue.
