John J. Barton has released a new open source framework named Fireclipse that enables nice coupling of Firefox and Eclipse for debugging purposes, working on top of Firebug.

  • Fireclipse routes error messages from Firefox’s
    Javascript Console to Eclipse’s console.
  • Fireclipse positions an Eclipse editor on the source line reported by Firefox.
  • Calls to dump() end up on the Eclipse console
  • Fireclipse adds an Eclipse panel to Firebug
  • Extensions to Firebug include:
  • debug eval() code.
  • debug event handlers
  • route error messages to eclipse
  • executable line numbers marked

Take a peak at the page of screenshots to see it setup in Firefox and Eclipse.
