Eclipse SWT browser and Firebug lite?

debugging, eclipse, swt

Solution

Depends on the system browser which your SWT browser is using. For Win7 and IE8, you can have something like this:

Output

Code

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.browser.Browser;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionAdapter;
import org.eclipse.swt.events.SelectionEvent;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridData;
import org.eclipse.swt.layout.GridLayout;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Button;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

public class FirebugLite 
{
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        new FirebugLite().start();
    }

    public void start()
    {
        Display display = new Display();
        Shell shell = new Shell(display);
        shell.setLayout(new GridLayout(1, false));
        GridData gridData = new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.FILL, true, true);
        gridData.widthHint = SWT.DEFAULT;
        gridData.heightHint = SWT.DEFAULT;
        shell.setLayoutData(gridData);
        shell.setText("Firebug Lite for SWT ;)");

        final Browser browser = new Browser(shell, SWT.NONE);
        GridData gridData2 = new GridData(SWT.FILL, SWT.FILL, true, true);
        gridData2.widthHint = SWT.DEFAULT;
        gridData2.heightHint = SWT.DEFAULT;
        browser.setLayoutData(gridData2);

        Button button = new Button(shell, SWT.PUSH);
        button.setLayoutData(new GridData(SWT.CENTER, SWT.CENTER, false,    false));
        button.setText("Install");
        button.addSelectionListener(new SelectionAdapter() {
            public void widgetSelected(SelectionEvent e) {
                browser.setUrl("javascript:(function(F,i,r,e,b,u,g,L,I,T,E){if(F.getElementById(b))return;E=F[i+'NS']&&F.documentElement.namespaceURI;E=E?F[i+'NS'](E,'script'):F[i]('script');E[r]('id',b);E[r]('src',I+g+T);E[r](b,u);(F[e]('head')[0]||F[e]('body')[0]).appendChild(E);E=new%20Image;E[r]('src',I+L);})(document,'createElement','setAttribute','getElementsByTagName','FirebugLite','4','firebug-lite.js','releases/lite/latest/skin/xp/sprite.png','https://getfirebug.com/','#startOpened');");
            }
        });

        browser.setUrl("http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12003602/eclipse-swt-browser-and-firebug-lite");

        shell.open();
        while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
            if (!display.readAndDispatch())
                display.sleep();
        }
        display.dispose();
    }
}

`Note >>` I have used the `setUrl()` API. You can try the `execute()` but I am not sure whether it would work.
