Hi everyone, If you run debug builds, you're probably aware of all the gunk that gets dumped out to the console for even simple things like starting up a browser. There's probably a rationale for all of WARNING: No disk space watcher component available!: file /home/billm/mozilla/in1/dom/indexedDB/IndexedDatabaseManager.cpp, line 207 these messages and warnings, and we probably do fix some of them occasionally. But at this point, there are so many that it's a ++DOMWINDOW == 4 (0x7effb67f08b8) [serial = 4] [outer = 0x7effb67ef8b8] ++DOMWINDOW == 5 (0x7effb64f1cb8) [serial = 5] [outer = 0x7effbfbe70b8] little overwhelming. What's really bothersome is that my own WARNING: NS_ENSURE_TRUE(NS_SUCCEEDED(rv) && subjPrincipal) failed: file /home/billm/mozilla/in1/docshell/base/nsDocShell.cpp, line 8442 debugging printfs are hard to find in all the unrelated spew.
I just landed bug 921293, which makes it possible to silence some of these messages with an environment variable. If you just add the following to your .bashrc or whatever: # Silence ++THIS and --THAT export MOZ_QUIET=1 # Silence NS_WARNING export MOZ_IGNORE_WARNINGS=1 then you won't get any more messages about DOM windows or docshell creation/destruction or about NS_WARNINGs firing. So far it's had a much more positive effect on my debugging experience than I would have expected. -Bill _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
