Played "abit" with Martin Ström 's console code, and got some nice ideas on
how to enhance it.
See the attached result.
Unzip this package into a sub directory of your DynAPI code (eg. into the
src/ directory), and add the following two lines to your code for some great
debuggin tools:
DynAPI.include('oversight.js','../src/oversight')
and then in the DynAPI.onLoad, add the first line:
Oversight.run('../src/oversight')
where the '../src/oversight' is the path of your Oversight root folder.
I haven't done much on errorhandling yet so be carefull, but currently you
have the
following tools:
* Add watch
Adds a property to the watcher.. the watcher will then display the value
of that property.
For example, try adding a watch for myLayer.x and make the layer
dragable..
* Delete watch
Deletes the property or variable from the watcher list.. no real need for
this, every property
will have a DEL link in the watcher window, to remove it.. saves typing
* Dump object
Dumps the specified object and it's properties/methods.. also creating
dynamic hyperlinks for
all child objects.
* Show value
Displays the value of the specified variable or property (not watching,
just printin it once)
* Execute code
Will execute any code you type in it.. Basically this allows you to create
DynLayer, move existing
DynLayers/widgets, etc,etc,etc.
I want to enhance the Execute code, so that it displays a memo field so in
which you can type more lines
at once.. making it a runtime editor.
I think that when we create more of these types of tools, that the
DynBuilder as described by Henrik is actually possible as a Webapplication.
I've only tested this stuff on IE5 and NS4.. and works under both browsers
perfectly.
Let me know of any ideas, comments, flames, rock throwing, etc..

Pascal Bestebroer
