Debugger pausing on ignore listed files

[royalone]

I have a bunch of files (mainly minified libraries) that I have added to the ignore list. When I open these files in the Sources tab, there is a banner at the bottom telling me that This script is on the debugger's ignore list

Adding breakpoints to these files will pause execution, and also checking the pause on caught/uncaught exceptions breakpoint options will pause in these ignore listed files.

This is mainly an issue to me when I want to pause on exceptions in my own code, but the pausing is polluted by all my libraries throwing and catching exceptions all the time.

Edge version: Version 123.0.2420.81 (Official build) (64-bit)

Let me know if I can provide more info Thanks

Thank you for filing.

Adding breakpoints to these files will pause execution,

I'm not clear here on whether this should occur or not. I'll take a deeper look in a minute.

checking the pause on caught/uncaught exceptions breakpoint options

This should definitely not happen.

I can confirm the first one is intentional: even when you add a script to the ignore list, manually setting breakpoints within that script will still trigger those breakpoints. Manual breakpoints override the ignore script setting.

I just tested the second one: "checking the pause on caught/uncaught exceptions breakpoint options", and things seem to work fine for me. When I add the script to the ignore list, and then select the options, script execution does not pause within the ignored script.

@royalone could you please check again and make sure this is broken on your end? And, if so, please provide a test that we can use to reproduce the issue locally.

Digging a bit deeper, it's the ignore list general exclusion rules, specifically Content scripts injected by extensions that doesn't seem to be working for me.

• Start with ignore listing enabled in settings, but no custom rules and no general rules
• Open a file in Sources tab, right click and Add script to ignore list
• Exceptions in this file will not pause execution as expected (this works fine)
• Open an extension file in Sources tab, right click and select Add all extension scripts to ignore list
• Banner pops up below for this and all extension files now stating that the script is on the debugger's ignore list
• Exceptions in these files will pause execution

Thanks for the additional investigation details. I'll make sure this issue shows up on our team's radar for prioritization.
