在Firefox扩展的代码中使用Firebug

Question

Does anyone know how I can use firebug from an overlay.js script in a Firefox extension? I'm on Snow Leopard (just in case it makes a difference).

I'm developing an extension but it's taking me forever because I have no visibility into my javascript objects.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Actually, what you really need is ChromeBug , created by the Firebug team.

ChromeBug is a Firebug version that can debug XUL elements, that is, a Firebug that can debug Firefox extensions.

Answer 2

Try using FireBug Lite . It's a handy substitute for the real deal -- essentially it's a Javascript file you can package up on your site or custom extension.

Answer 3

安装FirebugLite并使用以下内容将内容记录到控制台：

Firebug.Console.log('things to log...');
