I looked into this somewhat and I noticed the following:
1) There is a bug in Interpreter.java, line 1695. It sets the variable "i" to
the line number of the special call, but overwrites it on line 1699. It then
passes this value to ScriptRuntime.callSpecial
2) In "generateScriptICode" in Interpreter.java the variable
itsData.itsSourceFile fails to be set to itsSourceFile. This causes a null
source file name to be passed to handleCompilationDone when "Widget.js" is
compiled. That is why you
initially see "<stdin>, line 6" when the debugger comes up (the debugger
interprets a null source name as "stdin"). I simply modified it as follows
(this might not be the right thing to do?):
private InterpretedScript generateScriptICode(Context cx,
Scriptable scope,
Node tree,
Object securityDomain)
{
itsSourceFile = (String) tree.getProp(Node.SOURCENAME_PROP);
itsData.itsSourceFile = itsSourceFile;
...
and that corrected the problem.
However there seems to be no way for the debugger to detect that the script
passed to handleCompilationDone() is the argument of an "eval()". So I modifed
NativeGlobal.evalSpecial() to munge the filename to indicate this (by appending
"(eval)" to it). That way a separate window is created in the debugger to hold
the compiled eval code. This is probably not be the best way to solve the
problem.
I have attached the files I modified.
Cheers,
Chris

minimize the console to reveal Widget.js file window. You click 'Go'. The
