875190 - ff using deprecated Components object according to ff debugger

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(DevTools :: General, defect)

Description

[Jim Michaels]

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:20.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/20.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130409194949

Steps to reproduce:

was debugging a web page in my own code with built-in debugger


Actual results:

got this message
[19:05:50.005] The Components object is deprecated. It will soon be removed. @ chrome://global/content/devtools/dbg-script-actors.js:1566
I have not gotten it again, do not know what caused it but apparently this seems to be an issue for mozilla (?) to solve - its your own browser code.


Expected results:

should not have gotten the error.

http://jesusnjim.com/calculators/finances/calculator-with-estimator-to-save-up-for-item.html was the web page. the code has changed since then, I commented out some break; lines in atoi64.js so that the code would work.

Works for me (got no message) on Windows 7, 64 bits, with Firefox 22 beta 2, User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:22.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/22.0, Build ID: 20130521223249.

Reporter, do you still see this message on Firefox 21.0 and/or on the Beta release, Firefox 22?

happened *once*. have no idea what caused it. seems to be unrepeatable since I don't know how to repro. did you look at the code in chrome://global/content/devtools/dbg-script-actors.js to see what any problem was?

That warning used to appear whenever you inspected the global scope in the web console or debugger. Bug 790732 removed it from content, so I think that's what fixed it.
