debuggerModule for code snippets
to insert at various points in the JavaScript file. The
debuggerModule is also notified of syntax
errors and warnings. This function fails under any of the following conditions: syntax errors, a file
error, or the document cannot be debugged for some reason. Temporary files are never deleted
immediately, even if the function fails.
