Hi Jan,
As far as the UI is concerned, I was thinking of a collapsible folder-
view not unlike the one you find in most common file directory
browsers. This could be displayed in a seperate panel much like how
the callstack is displayed currently.
for e.g.
function a()
{
...
b();
...
c();
}
function b()
{
...
c();
...
}
function c()
{
...
d();
...
XHR.send();
...
}
function d()
{
...
e();
...
}
function e()
{
...
}
a();
For the above, a folder-style UI would look like:
GLOBAL
|
- a()
|
- b()
| |
| - c()
| |
| - d()
| | |
| | - e()
| |
| - XHR.send()
|
- c()
|
- d()
| |
| - e()
|
- XHR.send()
If a() was registered as an event handler, then the Event
which triggered the callback would be displayed on top.
