Hi Brent,
Sure. The goal of the debugger API is to allow client apps to create their own
Javascript debugger as part of their browser. This isn't possible at the
moment because the API is private, and hence you need to build the debugger
code as part of Webkit to be able to access the header

Can you share the goals of this external API, and why the existing
inspector infrastructure is not sufficient?
Maybe if we better und

My sense from Oliver's response is that there aren't any plans to
start this process. He's one of the key decision makers on this topic
and he sounds pretty negative about creating such an API.
Generally, the WebKit project tries to be careful about creating
public APIs because they c

It depends on what you mean by "official"
I would probably r- any patch that attempted to create such an API, but it's
conceivable that a sensible API could be made that masked the current craziness
sufficiently to allow the craziness to be removed later. But any API would
need to be very care

Hi,I'm interested in providing a public C API for accessing debugger functionality in _javascript_Core. Ideally I would like the code to be merged into webkit, so I wanted to know if there is a policy reason for not already having debugger APIs available in the public _javascript_Core APIs? If so
