Provide an extension point to have custom local file -> script mapping

[GoogleCodeExporter]

SDK/Debugger version: 3.2
Eclipse version:3.7.1.
Google Chrome/V8 Embedder + version:
OS + version: Linux

Currently only the inverse is possible with a custom SourceContainer. It would 
be useful to be able to specify a mapping from local file to chrome loaded js 
file

Could you please provide more details? Also it's not clear what "inverse" is.

Apologies for being unclear.

In our project we have the following structure of js files:

- x/y/z/a.js 
- x/y/b.js

etc...

where every folder constitutes to a package name. In the web ui however, these 
files are returned as x.y.z.a.js and x.y.b.js. This is not what the dev tools 
eclipse plugin expects.

So now we have two issues: 
1) How do I map from x.y.b.js to x/y/b.js
2) How do I map from x/y/b.js to x.y.b.js

Issue nr.1 is currently solvable by providing a custom SourceContainer which 
takes in the x.y.b.js string and maps it to the correct subfolder and file. 

Issue nr.2 is not solvable by usage of extension points and can only be solved 
by modifying the original code. I currently use the "Auto-detect" option, but 
that runs into issues when I have similarly named javascript files which reside 
in different packages. 

Does that make the issue somewhat clearer?

So I understand you're asking about programming API and you are OK to implement 
container and mapping yourself? Is it correct?

Hi,

as said, the container I have already implemented as this was an extension 
point provided by eclipse. This then can be added over the Source tab in the 
settings.

I would still require the API (an extension point preferably) so that I can map 
local files to javascript files in the vm uniquely.

Hopefully that makes sense

• Changed state: Accepted

Wattos,

could you please take a look at this change:
https://chromiumcodereview.appspot.com/9704071/

Hopefully it provides an interface that you need. You only have to implement 
ReverseLookupContainer in your container class.

Peter

Will try it out and let you know as soon as possible. Thanks for taking the 
time to implement this!
