Google Chrome Developer Tools for Eclipse Users
Tuesday, August 04, 2009
We recently announced the availability of developer tools for Google Chrome. We are now releasing ChromeDevTools, which enables JavaScript debugging using Eclipse.
You can set breakpoints, inspect variables and evaluate expressions all from within Eclipse. The screenshot shows the debugger in action stopped at a breakpoint.
The project is fully open sourced on a BSD-license and consists of two components, an SDK and a debugger. The SDK provides a Java API that enables communication with Google Chrome over TCP/IP. The debugger is an Eclipse plugin that uses the SDK and enables you to debug JavaScript running in Google Chrome from the Eclipse IDE.
We hope this project will help web app developers and welcome feedback as well as contributions.

Excellent work! I was really impressed and excited to see that one can do a global search through the project in order to find that specific point in code to set a breakpoint. The web application framework I work with loads lots of script files (basically JavaScript class definitions) dynamically. Debugging has always been a pain and basically came down to logging jsonfied objects. This will definitely save me a lot of time. I would love to see this cross browser.

Hi everyone. Yesterday I was updating my packages on Ubuntu, and Chromium browser too, and when I open it again, I see a strange guy on the right corner. What is this... I'm infected??? Thanks for all your responses.

Alejandro Cano: All of us on Linux get the face for the close button. It's just some humor on the developers part.

希望google浏览器能增加一下重复下载的提醒,还有一些网站无法用Google浏览器正常浏览使用,比如说一些BBS左侧的部分,还有一些网站的支付界面也无法正常打开

Wow, I can't comment on the technical side of this, but I have seen some very real benefits using the built in search box to do google searches in the latest chromium nightly. Very noticeable speed improvements over the same searches on the same connection on the same computer directly before upgrading the browser.
