[dev-servo] Creating a JSObject -> id map for the Debugger IPC server.

For the Servo debugger, we need some kind of IPC layer: The debugger server (i.e. the thing that talks the Chrome debugging protocol) needs to live in the same process (and perhaps even the same thread) as the constellation; it needs to work closely with the constellation to figure out which scrip

[dev-servo] Using IPC channels with Tokio?

For the Servo debugger, now that we've begun landing the Rust interface to the Debugger API, we can also started working on the next step, which is an IPC client/server on top of that Rust interface. This IPC server will allow the main debugger server, which lives in a separate process, to talk to

[dev-servo] Landing a Rust interface for the SpiderMonkey debugger API.

Hello! I am sure most of you are already aware of this, but for those of you who are not: the devtools team is taking its first steps towards implementing a JS debugger for Servo! As part of this process, we started working on a Rust interface for the SpiderMonkey debugger API a couple of weeks a

[dev-servo] How to shut down a WebSocket server

As I mentioned in my previous post, I am trying to use the rust-websocket library to implement a prototype debugger server for Servo. The main server thread needs to wait for one of the following events: 1. An incoming WebSocket connection. 2. A message from the browser Unfortunately, the former

[dev-servo] Upgrading HTTP requests to WebSocket with rust-websockets.

I am currently writing a prototype of a debugger server for Servo that works with the Chrome Debugging Protocol: https://github.com/ejpbruel/servo/tree/acceptor The Chrome Debugging Protocol works by first sending a HTTP request to http://localhost:/json (where is the remote debugging port). This

[dev-servo] What should be the unit of debugging in Servo?

As I’m sure you are aware, the devtools team is taking the first steps towards building a JS debugger for Servo. One of the first questions one needs to answer when building a JS debugger is: what should happen when the debugger is paused? In Gecko, we have a separate debugger for each tab, so the
