Help needed with debugging
Hi,
Could you tell me how you debug your widgets/services? I've used firebug but I'm not sure how to point it at the preview window so that I can set breakpoints in the javascript for the widget I'm testing.
The other thing is that I purposely removed a required argument to a call to a service to see what error messages I would see somewhere. On previewing the widget there was no output when the service was invoked(expected) but I don't see any debug messages anywhere that would have helped me with trouble shooting. "Enable logging" is checked - but I don't see where it logs to.
Help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Inappropriate?In addition:
Here is a link on the wiki that deals with the advanced editor:

Half-way down the page under "error highlighting,error tooltip, compilation errors" it shows a "call" tab and a "log" section of the accordian panel. I do not see either of these when I'm on the javascript tab of my widget at:

I’m wondering...

Inappropriate?In a widget the preview logs are output in the firebug console. Don't look in the UI.
In a service, the logs are sent to the "Logs" panel inside the "test drive" tab on the right of the editor.
In the widget case, I often end up previewing in a separate tab, and using firebug from it.

Inappropriate?Thanks! Previewing the widget in a separate tab is what I needed to do. I saw my expected error messages in the firebug console and I was able to set breakpoints into the javascript.
I’m relieved
