debugAtAllCosts: dojo.provides race conditions

[[email protected]…]

In browser_debug.js, dojo.hostenv.loadUri calls dojo.provide(), thus creating an empty package, but the package isn't filled in (with functions definitions, etc.) until much later in writeIncludes().

In particular this leads to a problem in event.js, which does a "if(dojo.eventbrowser?)". The code inside the "if" is executed because dojo.event.browser exists, but breaks because dojo.event.browser doesn't contain the expected functions.

Try loading test_fisheyewidget.html while moving your mouse over the screen (near where the icons are displayed) and then look in the javascript console to see the problem.

Bill, is this still an issue?

Yeah. If you change debugAtAllCosts to true in test_fisheyeWidget.html and then move your mouse during page load there will be dozens of errors. (On the other hand, there are sometimes errors even when debugAtAllCosts is false)

This should be fixed in 1.0, since debugAtAllCosts does not depend on writeIncludes() now and uses the xdomain loading mechanism.
